Big Moe Up
the courage? Moehler has been pitching very well recently.

Scott Olsen
I wasn't booing the ump, I was booing Martinez who stunk up the joint tonight and almost cost the Fish the game with his inability to locate a single one of the pitches in his repetoire. For a guy people think may be heir apparent to the closer role I wouldn't be sending Joe Borowski packing quite yet, based on KMart and Tankersley's performances tonight. And Kensing not being able to seal deal didn't help matters either. In his defense, he had pitched 1.2 innings in 12 days since coming off the DL. That is unacceptable on Girardi's part. Speaking of unacceptable, will we ever see Yusmiero Petit again? I think that Girardi saves Petit for when Moehler starts because he expects Moe to get into trouble. Right now, Petit is our long reliever. He hasnt pitched since June 6th now and since May 13th, he has seen all of 11 innings. Unacceptable. Send him down, let him get his work in.

Gee there's a surprise
Wasnt the Baseball Tonight last night just 20 minutes? IIRC, At 12:00 begins the Trifecta in which 3 shows are shown in an hour. Last night was World Cup Live, followed by Baseball Tonight, followed by Outside the Lines. Now if there was a 10:00 BBTN, my apologies for I was coming home from the game. But I recall 03 saying he was at the game too, so unless he "tivoed" it, he would be in my predicament. Can't fault ESPN if we werent in the 20 minute set. Blue Jays-Marlins doesnt exactly scream MUST SEE TV.

Eric Reed
I've never seen a player look so outmatched at the plate in my life. He looked worse than Reggie. Yea, I went there.

DAN UGGLA
It will be a shame to see him get snubbed because he has been AMAZING! No way he gets snubbed.

I don't know what game you guys were at but until Glaus hit that mammoth home run and woke Olsen up he was back to nibbling, nibbling, nibbling. If it wasn't for the defense behind him this game could have been 5-0 before Uggla's dinger. Luckily, he came to his senses after Glaus, throwing strikes and challenging hittters. I congratulate him for his overall performance but it took on helluva wakeup call to get him cooking. I agree 100%. He wasnt great tonight. He had solid stuff but was as you said "nibbling". He could have had a much worse line tonight but he bailed himself out of a few jams. Anyway, can't argue with results.

Leyland and Randolph have a big advantage on Girardi

Baseball Tonight comments
The Marlins are still 11 games under .500. They aren't playing like that team in April, but on the season, they are not a good team. And stop worrying about what ESPN thinks.

Cody Ross
Cody has never played CF in the majors. Then again, neither had Amazega

MARLIN MINOR LEAGUE STATS
It's too bad JB wasnt used in 2005. That 2.20era and 16.26k/9 was nice then again, I believe he got shelled in Japan That's true... I didn't know his Japan stats...do you have them? Anyway, might as well give him another chance. He pitched decently for Durham (Tampa AAA) earlier this year going (0-6) 4.26 ERA...25.1 IP, 18 H, 25 BB, 30 Ks. Walks were high but K's were there again... 15 appearances, 0-0, 7.18era, 21.1ip, 14bb 29k 22h 1.69whip

Johnson suspended five games, Torre for one
Just let baseball govern themselves. Selig and Co are so lame all the time.

Let Amezaga leadoff
Hanley will be more of a 2-3 guy in the future. I dont see him being a protypical leadoff man.
-
Schilling
It's going to be pretty damn hard, imo. If he wins a Cy Young this year, then I think he gets in. If not, it's going to be really tough. I agree and even if he were to win the Cy this year, I still think it would be real tough.
-
Let Amezaga leadoff
I got no problem with that. Amazega has been outstanding over the past few games. I happen to think Hanley may need a few more days off anyway(I realize you want Hanley and Amazega to play at the same time)

Hanley
With bad defence and bad hitting, I'm going have to call him a black hole on the 25 men roster just like Jacobs early in the season. Yawn

They probably had those clips done before our game was over.

Borowski
Stop thinking about trades and stupid sh*t like that. Be happy that he gritted his teeth and got out of a huge jam. Its not stupid....It would be stupid to keep him, hopefully he gets that ERA under 3.50 and keeps converting saves. I'll never forget all we gave up to get Uggy, hopefully we can do the same. For what its worth I am happy he got us through that inning and how he's performed but you've got to think about the future over the present for the moment with this frachise So you want to get two washouts and a guy who takes three seasons to become an average at best player? You're not wrong that Borowski, if he continues to convert saves, will have value at the trade deadline but personally I'd hope the Fish could get someone who would contribute immediately. At the time 03, the Marlins have up 3 of their top 12 or so prospects.

Hammer on the DL
Is there another player instead of Aggy, Reed etc: who can come up. I need to see a new face. Problem is that those guys are on the 40 man
