April 5, 200422 yr From the list below, who will step up and shine in 04? Nate Bump Tommy Phelps Justin Wayne Matt Perisho _
April 5, 200422 yr Justin Wayne (okay, here comes the abuse). Wayne is not closer or setup material, but he has the stuff to keep us in games during the 5th-6th-7th inning. Nate Bump is very hitable so he is not my pick.
April 5, 200422 yr Wayne, simply because a starter pitching one or two innings brings a lot more to the table...
April 5, 200422 yr Perisho - becomes a lefty specialist - ala Jesse Orosco. He'll only face one or two batters an appearance - will make a career for himself by getting out Thome, Abreau and Floyd on a regular basis. :notworthy
April 5, 200422 yr Franklyn Gracequi, when we recall him. I agree. Though he was not one of the four choices offered above. But, I would have chosen Choice Five if it said "TBA, not yet a Marlin."
April 5, 200422 yr I honestly don't think any of them will SHINE, but I think of all of them BUMP will give us the least heart attacks.
April 10, 200422 yr Put me down as a Perisho guy...I think he's got great stuff..... :whistle Can we note whose 2-0 this season and who believed in him? Also, in an eerie sight, while Benitez was pitching for us in the 9th...Looper was closing for the Mets and Six fingers was in for the Braves....

April 10, 200422 yr Perisho's had a good start to the year at 2-0, with a 0.00 ERA. But, he's only pitched 2/3 of an inning so considering all he's had to do is get two guys, it's not like he's pitched two complete game shutouts or anything. Still, I'm impressed and I hope he can continue to impress. And for someone who we DON'T need in the bullpen. That would be Chad Fox. Pitched horrible in last years postseason and I know this season is still very very early, but he did have about a 14 ERA, but now he's gotten it down to about 4.5. Just don't really like the guy.

Dude, Fox was clutch during the playoffs!! remember all the times that he came out with runners in scoring position and got the final outs to get us out of a jam??? FOX=CLUTCH :notworthy
