August 5, 200422 yr baseball games like these you just have to sit back and laugh it wasnt really that we played so bad, we scored 6 runs, 10 hits we got some bad breaks we cant win the WS every year i guess
August 5, 200422 yr this game summed up our season but our season turns around tomorrow.... I promise :plain
August 5, 200422 yr I cant sit back and laugh sorry.. we are losing to much ground on the Braves and Padres to be laughing this late into the season.
August 5, 200422 yr I love just being big league. It is something you can never get sick of. The big league ballparks, opponents, the call on TV or Radio, the spring invasion, the fall playoffs, the long summer nights....it's as American as apple pie.
August 5, 200422 yr I'm still not happy about the trade but I'll be satisfied no matter the outcome of the season.
August 5, 200422 yr Author yes, it really did sum up our season what kills me is how hard cabrera hit those 2 balls to RF, not 1 but 2, for outs if someone told me the marlins suck it wouldnt really get to me, cause it isnt true

August 5, 200422 yr I'm kinda wishing now we hadn't swept the Phils, if that hadn't happened maybe Beinfest could've at least salvaged our future instead of destroying it on what is most likely a lost cause.
August 5, 200422 yr JACK!!! YOU BETTER PUT MIGUEL CABRERA IN 1B TOMORROW. IM SICK OF SEEING THIS KID f*** UP SO MUCH IN THE OF AND JOG TO BALLS
August 5, 200422 yr Author JACK!!! YOU BETTER PUT MIGUEL CABRERA IN 1B TOMORROW. IM SICK OF SEEING THIS KID f*** UP SO MUCH IN THE OF AND JOG TO BALLS 496136[/snapback] haha with a load in his pants
August 5, 200422 yr This thread is so true. A game like tonight you just feel like the baseball Gods were against us. Aside from the 2 Conine errors in that one inning, we just got hit was some really bad luck. Broken bat singles, bloop singles, etc.... That's how it goes when a team is struggling. Whatever. We're the defending World Champions. Only one team all year can say that. That's what keeps me smiling.
August 5, 200422 yr The keys to the loss were the errors by Conine, lack of range by Cabrera and all the seeing eye balls that found holes. The D'Backs really caught a bunch of breaks tonight....but what else is new....it seems to happen against the Marlins on a regular basis.
August 5, 200422 yr I find it kinda ironic how everyone said our defense had improved so much. Choi wouldn't have made those 2 errors by Conine, and Conine probably could've made a couple of those plays in left that dropped in on Cabrera.

He was a good fielding third baseman, I don't see why he wouldn't do just as well on the other side of the infield.
August 5, 200422 yr So true. And I'm not dissing Encarnacion, but several balls were just out of his reach as well (balls that would have easily rolled to the wall as Cabrera would have been 4-5 steps away from them).
August 5, 200422 yr Do y'all think that AdminWalker sold his house in Denver and is coming to Florida so he can play for the Marlins? Or is he retiring?
August 5, 200422 yr Do y'all think that AdminWalker sold his house in Denver and is coming to Florida so he can play for the Marlins? Or is he retiring? 496159[/snapback] The last thing we need is Admin Walker at this point. Let's get to about 3 games back for a playoff spot, then we can start talking about Admin Walker.
August 5, 200422 yr Do y'all think that AdminWalker sold his house in Denver and is coming to Florida so he can play for the Marlins? Or is he retiring? 496159[/snapback] Forget about Walker. It's too late. No sense depleting our system any further.
August 5, 200422 yr Here is the truth as told by CapeFish *Removes Teal Colored Glasses* 1) Our pitching has been less than marginal since May. 2) The offense continues to develop confidence. 3) The bullpen is a bipolar case. 4) The defense is stellar some plays, others they completely blow, but with so many shifts who can blame them too much. 5) Benitez has been stellar. 6) Mota was stellar tonight. 7) Beckett had his hook working tonight...very good for his next start. 8) We don't play many last place teams over the next 2 months. 9) Beinfest has the team in position for maximum flexibility in the offseason.
August 5, 200422 yr 9) Beinfest has the team in position for maximum flexibility in the offseason. 496174[/snapback] :blink: how do you figure?
August 5, 200422 yr 9) Beinfest has the team in position for maximum flexibility in the offseason. 496174[/snapback] :blink: how do you figure? 496180[/snapback] I will explain later Fran.
