Teal Shadow Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Word going around is that Abe Nunez could be in the line-up tommorrow, also Castillo could be given the day off. With a day off Monday McKeon could be looking to give some guys two days off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossInfoMan Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 During the week, Jack said hed like to give Easley a start this weekend and also said he might give Nunez a start, so Im guessing well see both tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBMarlin Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 There likely won't be much of a drop off by putting Nunez in. I hate to say it, but Conine has been more of the anti-clutch so far. So until he gets his bat going, we should see if Abraham can continue his ST hitting streak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockyMountainMarlin Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Do they really need a rest after only a week into the season? Don't get me wrong, I think Nu?ez could be something, but its a bit too early to start giving them time to rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mave Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 How about Nunez in for Conine and Eisley in for Sea Bass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Ugh, the fourth time in 5 games we have loaded the bases, and gotten nothing from it. :mad : Tonight, we loaded them after 2 outs though. Who cares though, the result was a W. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Why would we have our backups in tom? If we have a day off monday than players shouldnt mind playing on sunday because they coukd relax on mon. And we need some good players in to face Kevin M. I dont understand why we would put in our backups...unless we really want to make fun of the Phils and show them that even our backups can beat them.

Don't get me wrong, I think Nu?ez could be something, but its a bit too early to start giving them time to rest. During spring training many of the starters played sporatically, half a game or less. Conine didn't play for six days before opening day because he was sick. Lowell sat out many games because of his problem. Luis still has hip problems. They've now played five games straight, intense games. You know the Expos are going to play us hard in PR. This early in the season resting them is the right thing to do. It's also important to give the bench guys some playing time so they don't get rusty. Nunez has one MLB so far, I don't remember if Easley has had any.

FishFanPR Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Keep Easley on the bench, I don't see him being a good sub for Castillo, not even near. As of Abe, give him the start. He earned it in ST plus Steve is struggling. Bring it on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bman8316 Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I feel that Nunez should get the start for Conine since he is trying to recover from his infection so maybe back to back days off will help him out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, I think Nu?ez could be something, but its a bit too early to start giving them time to rest. its not because the players need a rest ... it's basically because Jack doesnt want Nunez and Easley to cool off ... they were blazing hot in the spring, so if you keep them in the bench for too long they are just gonna cool off. I say Nunez for Niner ... leave Easley on the bench, and maybe bring him out in the 5th or so.(that way he gets a couple of at-bats) ... i dont know ... start em both :thumbup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild Card Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I want to see Abe in as well. Easely will be a good back-up this year, but I want to see Castillo in the line-up after he went 3-for-4 last night. And El Dictator should be behind the plate today as well.

Marlins Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 I'm very confident that our back-ups will do good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnylons Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 Castro should be in too. I think we will be fine - I am excited about Easley and Nunez...they could shine today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
