CapeFish Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 You know what, if it is meant to be it will work. If the man upstairs doesn't want it, it won't work. Simple As That! :angel says, "The man upstairs wants the Fish to win real bad!" Marlins all clear for Wild Card, or if he feels in a good mood- NL East, Take Over!

Hotcorner Posted June 20, 2003 Author Share Posted June 20, 2003 Luck is probably not the right choice of words. I would not say that Willis's success has anything to do with luck. Nor would Cabrera's if he does well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Das Texan Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 This has to be a bit of a desperate move though. I guess this means Hollandsworth has been a complete failure And Banks to a lesser extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapeFish Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 No, It means That Hollandsworth is struggling to a point he has been tossed aside. Banks cannot play everyday. Admin is gearing up for a run, he is getting serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapeFish Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 Why do we need to make a trade? If we have talent, let's use it! This is the right time, if he doesn't work out, THEN we can acquire a veteran. This is cheaper and we have the time and the talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossInfoMan Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 if they were gearing up for a playoff run they would be acquring veterans, not calling up players from double a. My feeling is that they werent going to judge whether or not they were going to make a run until July, so why not see if Cabrera can be everything people say he will be, thereby lessening the need to make a trade.

Marlins2003 Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 The reason they brought Cabrera up now is BECAUSE they need to evaluate him BEFORE the July 31st trading deadline.

farmer_fran Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 TV Schedule for Rays Series... Friday - Marlins/FSN 7:35 First Pitch Saturday - Marlins&Rays/PAX 6:05 First Pitch Sunday - Marlins&Rays/PAX 1:35 First Pitch All Games At Pro Player Stadium! WOOHOO!! It's been a while since I've been able to see the marlins play. Perfect timing too. I get to see DW and Cabrera. Also, I think if Cabrera plays well and the marlins make a run, I think beinfest has to try and trade hollandsworth for bullpen help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teal Shadow Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 I can't believe I'm going to say this but I agree with Rune :blink: I feel its harder coming up from the minors for a hitter than a pitcher IMO but I feel the Marlins got a little better feeling watching Mets Jose Reyes in this series. I wish they would have waited. Plus I think the Padres are push the Marlins on the White deal IMO why bring him up now if you didn't have something on the burner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotcorner Posted June 20, 2003 Author Share Posted June 20, 2003 if they were gearing up for a playoff run they would be acquring veterans, not calling up players from double a. Das, to be realistic, a move to acquire a veteran (someone like a Rondell White to use a recent example) would cost the Marlins a talented young player or two, for what would likely be a 1/2 year rental. Keeping in mind that a wild-card birth is still a huge reach for this team, I'd just as soon not have them blow a big wad trying to make a playoff run from last place in the division. I won't predict any immediate fireworks from this kid, but the way coaches talk about him he could bring just as much of a lift as some veteran journeyman. Even if it's just platooning for a while.
