July 24, 200321 yr They just said that the marlins dont want to win it because they Urbina a guy with 200 saves setingup.
July 24, 200321 yr Author They just said that the marlins dont want to win it because they Urbina a guy with 200 saves setingup. :lol Ignorant bafoons...
July 24, 200321 yr I agree with Reynolds that Urbina should be our closer. I don't think he was right by saying because Urbina is not our closer we dont want to win. That comment was just ignorant.
July 24, 200321 yr What HR was suggesting without saying it was sabotage on the part of the front office. He kept saying "look at the signs", and then said we traded away our future for a closer who isnt closing for us, saying we dont want to win now. So, what he basically said is that we dont want to win now and we intentionally hurt our future. get real.

If we win the Phillies series he will be singing a new tune however if we lose Harold will be Harold.
July 24, 200321 yr Harold was one of my favorites until he started bad mouthing the marlins every chance he got.
July 24, 200321 yr that was our future we just traded away? an OF prospect who was a 4th outfielder at best, a marginal reliever prospect, and a guy who although was our #1 pick, was hitting like .200 this year & had to be demoted in the minors and already had fallen behind Stokes.
July 24, 200321 yr what an a**, what an idiot, these guys should know their baseball, actually watch a marlins game and tell me that team is trying to loose, dumbass
July 24, 200321 yr Author I still think Looper should close. Why have him blow a game before Urbina ever gets the chance to save it? Looper throws balls early, and pulls it together aganist the second or third hitter. Some times he can go 1-2-3, though. But you don't make a guy that struggles with control early your set-up guy, because he has a bigger chance of blowing an inning in which you need a guy to come in and shut-down an offense...

I agree. The marlins did not trade their future they traded prospects who were not really needed for the team's future.

Urbina has closed all his career. Looper has only been doing it for a year. Also Urbina is one of the best closers of our time I dont see how he cannot be your closer. I'm sure Loop would be an awesome set-up man.
July 24, 200321 yr guys, lets not forget, the bullpen wasnt even a factor in todays loss, why the hell is HR bringing this up now???? its stupid, we lost today cause we got outplayed, not cause of some FO conspiracy, dont let HR get you all riled up, our bull pen is fine now, ramp is right, loop or UUU, dont matter, its fine either way, i personally would leave loop there for now since he is our guy and he should pitch himself out of the role...... dont let the BBTN folks get under your skin, they are idiots when it comes to marlin baseball

I'm sure Loop would be an awesome set-up man. Like Ramp said, it's good either way. BUT, what the hell kind of a messege do you send to Looper if you move him out of there because of ONE DAMN GAME?
July 24, 200321 yr I would rather have Urbina close and Looper set him up. I liked Urbina's Fire last night man was he pumped after that big out.
July 24, 200321 yr I'm fine with Uggy coming in the 8th and Loop in the 9th. Though if I was in the situation that my starter has given me 8 innings and I need someone to close it out I want Uggy in there.
July 24, 200321 yr Seriously in the 9th up by a run who do you want in there Loop or Urbina? I would take Urbina but thats my opinion.
July 24, 200321 yr I think you have to stick with Loop for now...until he blows more saves. He has being great all year long so you have to give him a break.
July 24, 200321 yr I agree with Harold in the sense that Urbina shoud close but they're not done. BTW who was that guy sitting to the right of Harold he really seems to support the Marlins.
