Random Question I have always wondered
I'm 99% sure teams have a hotel where players can stay while playing at home. If I remember correctly someone told me they stay somewhere by the beach. Not too sure though.

Attendance
I have long been of the opinion that the location, access, and parking issues (despite patchwork solutions), none of which will ever be fully remedied, will always disenfranchise spur-of-the-moment Broward, Palm Beach, and northern Dade fans, while southern Dade fans would never provide enough backfill. At this point, given the ideal conditions and recent team achievements with still less-than-stellar attendance, I see no reason to believe this isn't occurring, and I see nothing to refute that. I got ya, your pissed the Marlins left Broward. I got cha.

LoMo praises mother's support during tough times
I can't believe Lomo's father is dead but that f***er Osama Bin Laden is still alive! I can't believe Lomo's father is dead but that f***er Osama Bin Laden is still alive! What the f*** is wrong with you two? Seriously? Outside of you obviously making light of Tom Morrisons death, and calling Logan Morrison a douchebag does it really take a high reading comprehension to understand this piece was written for Mothers Day? You guys are really F'N Stupid. No wonder every thread turns into a pissing match between Penguino, Benched and Mystykol

5/4 post game
The point is that if you watched that inning, it's pretty clear that he wasn't pitching any better than he had in other recent outings. The end result isn't necessarily that important, no matter what you say. He couldn't locate his curve for sh*t, and it seemed like the Padres hitters could easily read it out of his hand and knew when to sit on it. They were also making solid contact off of his fastball. Whether he gave up one run or two during all of that mess is pretty inconsequential. Wow- your right. - Ish no one says to you

Bell: "God’s testing me right now"
Also... as others have alluded to, this isn't Bell blaming his professional failures on God; but a man dealing with an existential crisis the way most religious people would. Heath is aware of the problem and is expressing his concern about it. If you ask me, I think it's a cry for help. Shhh, Beetle, your destroying their blind hatred arguments with logic. Find me the blind hatred, please. Miami native the other night saying he was Getting on twitter just to cuss him out. Everyone Downing and being absolutley dickish about the guy over and over again for being a bigger dude. .twisting his words around and demeaning his thoughts on religion. Maybe "blind" isn't the right word, But the guy doesn't deserve some of this sh*t. Yeah he has sucked, talk sh*t about that but he has been awesome more often than not in his career. The guy signed here, is away from his family who I still believe resides in San diego most of the time, he has a child with down syndrome I believe. Possibly struggling from the pressures of a new contract, not the first to struggle after signing. Just some people are being way to harsh. I don't give a sh*t what he's done in the rest of his career, since that wasn't with the Marlins. Does that really matter to you? It only matters because you'd think he couldn't possibly be this bad...........but, he's objectively been just as bad as his numbers. Balls getting smoked, terrible location, etc. Beetle's post was about the religious side of it. When you respond to his post, that and your other comments make it seem like you're angry at people for ripping on his religion. But no one outside of RP OP did that, and even RP OP just reiterated the familiar argument a la Mark Twain's "War Prayer." The worst offense in this thread was the mischaracterized title, but that seemed more a rip on Bell's unwillingness to accept blame/admit he needs to do things differently rather than an anti-religious rant. Your anger about the religious part of it seems sorely misplaced. And it's absolutely normal for fans to rip on a guy who's performing terribly. It's certainly not my style to cuss a guy out on twitter, but I'm sure many of us have done so in front of our TVs or computers. And don't forget that he chose to sign here. He came to Miami and got his $27 million. He chose whatever familial outcomes that have ensued. edit: by "RP," I mean "OP." Freudian slip or something :lol Oh just shut up mystikol, you strike me a frivolous person in real life.

Bell: "God’s testing me right now"
Do you fault Mariano Rivera for blowing out his knee and saying it must be in gods plan? He's human, let him believe in religion. He knows he's being tested and being lit up. I'm ok with him knowing just that.

Omar Poveda outrighted to AA
Did they have to open a 40 man spot to make room for Oviedo to come back after his suspension? Get him on the 40 man, suspend him, pull someone up to 40 man?

Carlos Zambrano vs Chris Volstad So Far
The way our bats have been recently, even Volstad would have a good chance of shutting us down. I was kinda sad we didnt see him at home last cubbies series, that centerfield thingy would have malfunctioned

Ozzie Promises Drastic Changes
I hate to admit this but I didn't stay up to watch the game. Love to do it but that dirty word work keeps happening. Did Ozzie do anything drastic for this game? Peterson in? I did hear he didn't move out Bell from the closer roll so obviously nothing different there. Petey came in as a pinch runner for Kearns and played left, allowed a ball to drop and get by him for a double on a sliding attempt in the 9th. Whatever, NBD. Ozzie pulled Bell out after 3 straight hits to open the 9th, Cishek came in and did some badass work. Had Gregor Blanco not bunted for a hit, I think Cishek could have gotten the save, but as it was ... not his fault that the run scored. Anyways, we got the lead in the 10th, and Cishek said to the Giants, "hush little baby, don't say a word" and slammed the door. Stuart Scott? Is that you?

Ozzie Promises Drastic Changes
Ozzie implied he wanted to see location and ability out of Bell to REGAIN his job, and said for tonight especially not to see Bell in the 9th due to the number of pitches he threw. He also said he was impressed by Cishek this year and would have to discuss with his pitching coach how the staff shapes up. That's what I heard.

Ozzie Promises Drastic Changes
Ozzie in his post game interview promised drastic changes will be made and they will be contemplated during the "long six hours flight". Let the speculation begin? I think it's going to be lineup shifts and position shifts. LoMo to first on a platoon basis, Peterson into LF platooning with LoMo, (6 games a week for LoMo) Hanley in the two hole with LoMo hitting third and Stanton dropped to 8th in the order with reyes at 7th. Bell will probably be sent to the DL with "lower leg" problems. Sanchez playing time diminished until he picks up 3B again and starts hitting. The promised drastic changes Ozzie made was Bell and Staton What did he say about Stanton? I was at work.

I went to the game today. The stadium is amazing. I love everything about it. The green walls make it bright and unique. People who don't like the green either haven't been there or are too set in their ways. As I was eating my lunch I took this beautiful iPhone photo entitled "Picadillo with D-backs PB". Just to the left there is a seam where the roof sections join that was leaking badly. I'm not sure if they got it fixed or not as I left the area after feeding my face. It was delicious, BTW. Where did you get the piccadillo?

Orange hat
That Orange cap is the slump buster we need. Once we see it, we are going to start raking. Break it out already dammit. I think we'll see the orange jersey tomorrow, the cap is another story.
