    DS...

    How about this; if you're going to use your laptop at the ballpark save yourself $20 by sitting home at your computer and watching the game on television. If you aren't going to the ballpark to pay attention to the game then don't go.
  2. D-train just isn't that consistent of a pitcher (just like the rest of the Marlins 05 rotation). He had outtings just like this in 03 and 04. 05 was an incredible year and he still had outtings like this right around the All Star break. I was hoping this year would lead to less wins (because the lack of offense) but a 2.something ERA. The defensive errors don't help. I think its 25% the team and 75% when you have to point blame at his bad string of performances. He is just looking horrible out there lately.
  3. yeah the Marlins are sold out for the season. All 50+k seats are taken. Sorry buddy.
  4. Then why is there no lapse at the plate? Because the kid is a natrual talent. He doesn't have to try all that hard to do what he does at the plate. I know he's going to get better at 3rd, and errors will happen. But there really is no excuse for lazy errors like the one he had Friday. That was seriously disgusting.
  5. Yeah his show on 790 is great and probably the only talk radio show I can stomach. To the best of my knowledge its the only place to hear informative baseball talk. Amen! Boog has to be one of the better baseball guys around.
  6. I'm not going to doubt that Cabrera either A) Is having outside issues B) is out of shape or C) is getting comfortable at 3rd base. HOWEVER, that slow grounder he charged Friday night that basically rolled right by him only showed a blatant lack of effort. It litterally looked like he didn't care to hussle. I don't see how you could argue any different for that grounder. Playing the sharp line drives to the side and missing them I can live with. That comes when his comfort level at 3rd base comes back. But that lack of effort on that grounder was just unbelieveable.
  7. For those of you coming home w/ your domino sets and want to get rid of them PM me! :]
  8. i'm watching the cardinals boardcast up here in illinois and they are giving these rookies some props, for those of you who care. but they did get on hanram and cabs for not catching those balls. even though i think hanram's would have been a hell of a catch.
  9. nice play Hanley... good recovery come on Cabs... that was a fairly easy play E-6 Are you testing us? Otherwise...nevermind huh? E-5 thats what he ment. The last I checked HanRam was playing SS, not Cabs
  10. wow, nice play cabrera. way to look like a bum @ 3rd
  11. If you're going to the game tonight and you get an extra domino set or just one you don't want please let me know. I would LOVE one of those sets. I'll pay a reasonable price. Just PM me tomorrow if you would want to barter.
  12. Downtown: The Pluses Public Transportation...Metro Rail and Tri Rail access During weekday games traffic is flowing OUT of downtown Hundreds of thousands of working professionals 100,000 condos are being built within a 2 mile radius Exposure...potential to be the most picturesque ball park in all of MLB. Plenty of Broward residents go to Heat games and went to Panther games in the Miami Arena. (If youre a fan youll go)...if Ft. Lauderdale was building a stadium I would go. After a game you actually have the option of going somewhere for entertainment. Hitting home runs in the Bay! South Beach, Brickell minutes from bicentenial park and Coconut Grove and Coral Gables no more than 10 minutes away. The richest areas of Miami Dade County are with in a 20 minute ride. Little Havana is just 20 blocks away allowing a huge segment of the baseball loving population who are unable to attend DS or Hialeah. I look at it like this. Hialeah Heights is no better than the current location. Infact its practically the same location in terms of how it services Dade County. Nothing around it, in the middle of nowhere. Plan Jane boring atmosphere. Building a stadium in Downtown Miami, especially on Bicentenial Park, is once in a lifetime. If Hialeah is the ONLY place that can get a stadium done, than Ill be happy, but if it can get done in Miami, it should be a no brainer. Wow, now I agree with something more than your sig. :thumbup
  13. Nothing...he talked movies his whole segment....he sucks He talked a little about SA. He was VERY vauge on the dealing w/ dade county. Although the Marlins will get $$ from revenue sharing, said that Loria isn't going to make a dime this season and the goal is just to break-even. That was the meat of it.
  14. on the other side of this current break
  15. Marlins hit new lows in 8-5 loss Posted May 2, 2006 We've heard MLB officials aren't exactly thrilled with the prospects of placing a team in the farthest corner of Miami-Dade County on the site of a former industrial dump; in response, they've started working on their own ballpark plan for downtown Miami, commissioning renderings and quietly taking with local officials. No one -- including city and county officials or MLB folks -- expects a ballpark in Hialeah to succeed, and the more this is drawn out the more precarious the finances of the Marlins appear to be. :rofl Although I don't think MLB will intervine, it's refreshing to see someone start talking about how bad of an idea hialeah would be. I'll wait until this comes from a more reputable source though. From what I've heard about The White Sox, don't they play in a not so pleasant area of Chicago? Yeah, and they couldn't draw worth a crap until this season. Even when they were clinching the division in september they couldn't sell out. They have a brand new stadium (1996 i think) and a large population to draw from. They also give out rediculous promotions like "one free ticket for every A you get on your report card" or "$1 hot dog night" and they still can't draw. I've been to The Cell, and let me tell you, if you even DARE to walk 20 feet AWAY from the stadium after a night game, you are playing with your life. Take Liberty City and Carol City, combine them, and multiply it by 50 and you have the area around The Cell.
  16. I find it very amusing that anyone that says anything negative about Hialeah is met with such disdain on this board. haha, yep.
  17. Oh, I couldn't agree more with the article. My favorite quote I've ever heard: "I've been to Hiahleah twice in my life. That was twice too many." Amen.
  18. I just watched Major League today for the first time in a year or so and I couldn't help but notice the similarities to The Marlins this year. It's halarious.
  19. Are you kidding me? Yeah, the Marlins fanbase, the smallest in the league, is going to out-vote the entire nation. Jesus, get a day job.
  20. Look, Joe comes from the Yankee organization that is used to winning the AL East and World Series titles. Now, all of the sudden, he's on a team with a payroll that is less than 10% that of the Yankees. He's not used to losing. Of course he's going to be on the brink of tears when his club is 10 games below .500 in the month of April and it has shown no signs of improving.
  21. we need to draw 12k+ to reach 1 million. we are averaging 14k right now w/ the big draw teams still coming to town. we'll hit 1mil
  22. I think what the article forgot to hit on (or at least the snipet posted here) is that young relievers usually don't have the thick skin that is needed to be a closer. You see verteran closers like Jason Isringhausen (spelling) and Brad Lidge blowing saves almost nightly this season and its seems like its starting to effect their psyche. On the other hand Mariano Rivera blew a couple saves to the BoSox early last season and still finished the season just as strong as he always does. So if many vets can barely handle the closer roll it'd be tough for a youngster to go in there and start closing games. He might turn into another Rick Ankiel. =/
  23. Wow. An article written by a bitter Cubs fan. Thats the only kind. why the f*** did I read that? That was the most retarded, unknowledgable articles ever. What a god damn idiot! I would love to punch that a**hole right in the face :plain Buddy, I have that thought every day. Welcome to my hell. The hell of living with Cubs fans. Man I love this Cub/Chicago hating. I do it with my Cardinal fan friends, but I love to see Marlins nation finally share in my pain.
