June 18, 200323 yr I have to say under .500 I'd like to be wrong though. You are going to be wrong Admin.
June 18, 200323 yr Author ...As the clouds parted, the Voice from above said, "The Marlins Shall Have Won More Games or the Exact Amount Of Games By The All Star Break Than They Have Lost In The 2003 Season." Upon those words, the land rejoiced and filled Pro Player Stadium to capacity. :marlins
June 18, 200323 yr I honestly see us maybe 1-4 games over . 500... But only if they keep playing like this (dispite tonight).
June 18, 200323 yr Most likely under .500, but hopefully only a game or two. They've got a tough stretch going into the All-Star break. Braves, Phils, Cubs, Expos.
June 18, 200323 yr If we consistantly win series, and Beckett comes back and dominates we will be over .500 by maybe 5-6 games
June 18, 200323 yr 5-6 games might be a little too optimistic (if that's possible), but I think 1-2 games over is realistic...
June 18, 200323 yr Anyone who voted above .500 actually take a look at their schedule? After cream-puff Rays the Marlins get creamed. They play the sub .500 Mets (on the road, yikes!) and then the BoSox (on the road, double yikes!!), then come home to play the Braves. But the worst part is their 10 day, 9 game roadie before the break against Philly, the Cubs and the Spos, all who have +.500 records. 15 of the remaining 21 games are against +.500 teams. I think if we survive and stay around 5-7 games under it would be a great record.
June 18, 200323 yr Author -Marlins do well in interleague, Red Sox historically die in interleague play! They try to play NL-style ball, but Fish defend well and play NL-style ball better. -The RAYS ARE NOT CREAMPUFFS ask the Yankees, Red Sox, Orioles, and Blue Jays! They are a young team that plays hard, the problem is they are not well developed. If they get in a groove we will see a repeat of last year's series Marlins 2- Rays 4. -Fish kill Braves just as much as they kill us. (Down with Smoltz) -Cubbies are scuffling right now, let's hope they keep it up or get worse when Sammy rejoins them. (Why Sammy Why?) -Philly is looking like a kitten now compared to a lion at the start of the season. Texas provides more offense. The Braves have better pitching than the Phils. (Game Sound @ the Vet- Phils:Meow! Croud:BOOOOOOOO!) -Les Spos are on and off again like the Fish, that may be the hardest series in the schedule ahead. They will get worn down.
June 18, 200323 yr I dont think the Marlins will have much trouble with the BoSox and D-Rays Marlins= Interleague Masters Im kinda concerned about the Braves though :plain
June 18, 200323 yr I'm not! Boston isn't very good in interleague play, we are. But we know Atlanta much more than we know the BoSox... So...
June 18, 200323 yr I'm not! Boston isn't very good in interleague play, we are. But we know Atlanta much more than we know the BoSox... So... it's in Boston so I dont think they will be affected too much... i think they went 9-1 in interleague this year so far
June 18, 200323 yr Well historically the BoSox haven't been that good... I just hope we can do well... That's really all we can ask for going into a stretch like that...
June 18, 200323 yr Well historically the BoSox haven't been that good... I just hope we can do well... That's really all we can ask for going into a stretch like that... Historically The Sox have already fallen behind The Yanks after a good start... This Red Sox team is a whole new team with A Rotation that is just plain deadly.
June 18, 200323 yr Author The Phillies have a lineup that is deadly for pitchers. But since they are kittens now due to bad performances in interleague, they have fallen back alot and the fish have a chance of passing them in this stretch. Phils: Meowwwwww! Fans:BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Boo Down The Vet! Move to Citizen's Bank Park already LOL

Well, I'll try to live up to your expectations and boo The Hell out of The Fish on The Fifth :cool
June 18, 200323 yr Author Please I'll take Citizen's Bank over Pro Player anyday. You'll have to boo the fish to victory then.
June 18, 200323 yr Author Pro Player is bankrupt! Come on! Perry Ellis isn't paying for the name, at least Citizen's Bank has a relationship beneficial to the Phils.
