Posted July 26, 200321 yr :fyou How many lives does this guy have. He aint a damn cat thats for sure. What does he have to do to get released? Seriously, lose 2 or 3 more games? Raise his ERA into the 6's? Get his fat a** out off the team! Oh s*** we just lost damn
July 26, 200321 yr No blame to Urbina? OR Bump? Pointing the finger at only Almanza for blowing the lead is beyond foolish, Urbina gave up the bomb, He deserves the most.
July 26, 200321 yr I think the one to blame the most is Mckeon.He shouldn't have brought Almanza in the first place because then Bowa just went from Ledee to Punto.He should have just let bump try and finish it off.
July 26, 200321 yr No blame to Urbina? OR Bump? Pointing the finger at only Almanza for blowing the lead is beyond foolish, Urbina gave up the bomb, He deserves the most. the hit Bump allowed was a little roller up the 1B line...AA then walked a guy with 1 career HR. :banghead
July 26, 200321 yr Author why the hell did they pull Willis after 6? Pitch count or that he was starting to struggle
July 26, 200321 yr I think the one to blame the most is Mckeon.He shouldn't have brought Almanza in the first place because then Bowa just went from Ledee to Punto.He should have just let bump try and finish it off. I agree. For once, Jack made a foolish move. Urbina's oppenents average againt Left handed hitters is crazy good. Why bring in Almanzass?

July 26, 200321 yr 100 pitches? they still would have let him try to start it...but i found out now...McKeon said he could tell he was running outta gas and that they need him for later into the race
July 26, 200321 yr Author KEEP THE FAITH BRUTHA LOL in Almanza? Nah no faith in that guy. I doubt much people on this board do either.
July 26, 200321 yr LOL in Almanza? Nah no faith in that guy. I doubt much people on this board do either. Armando Almanza is the only player in Marlin history I have ever lost faith in so quickly... He can still gain it back with a few good outings, but not permanently...
July 26, 200321 yr they still would have let him try to start it Does the name AJ Burnett mean anything to you?
July 26, 200321 yr Does the name AJ Burnett mean anything to you? Seriously... We HAVE to protect Dontrelle at all costs. When you have someone as special as he is in your rotation, you want to keep it intact...
July 26, 200321 yr Armando Almanza is the only player in Marlin history I have ever lost faith in so quickly... He can still gain it back with a few good outings, but not permanently... Does Vladimir Nunez ring a bell?
July 26, 200321 yr Admin SEND THAT FAT GA& MEXICAN DOWN TO THE MINORS OR SEND HIM HOME CUZ HE SUCKS !
July 26, 200321 yr Does the name AJ Burnett mean anything to you? :o does the Phrase...  OUR BULLPEN SUCKS BIGTIME AZZ mean anything to you    Almanza garbage...Bump, OK....Loop - falters under pressure Phelps-Inconsitent and so on   Willis is a battler he can throw 120 pitches..I thought.McKeon should have let him start it and if he made quick work of them let him finish the inning, and if any signs of slowing down take him out immediatly....Which Mckeon saw that he "was running out of gas" thats why he took him out.now i understand his move
July 26, 200321 yr Loop - falters under pressure That's why he's the second best pitcher in MLB in pressure situations? :lol  Does Vladimir Nunez ring a bell? If Vlad came back and had some good outings, I'd welcome him back easily. I know what he used to do. I know his capabilities...
July 26, 200321 yr I think that Mackeon will start to use Phelps to face lefties instead of going with Almanza.
July 26, 200321 yr I still have confidence in letting our starters go 6IP and getting in Bump/Phelps for the 7th, UU for the 8th, and Loop for the 9th. If they are rolling let them go 7IP.
July 26, 200321 yr Almanza is garbgae...plain and simple. Its almost like giving the game away when u put that guy in.
July 26, 200321 yr I think the marlins should worry about getting a lefty for the pen instead of getting a LF. At least there's hope with Cabs in LF but with AA there's no hope at all.
July 26, 200321 yr why the hell did they pull Willis after 6? I suspect because it was so hot, so humid, it was oppressive. He looked gased.
July 26, 200321 yr I think the marlins should worry about getting a lefty for the pen instead of getting a LF. At least there's hope with Cabs in LF but with AA there's no hope at all. I'm starting to lean that way....I've tried to be patient because of his awesome start, but ever since hes been close to a complete disaster. Its amazing how 3 solid arms in our pen (Vlad, AA, and Neal) have had such poor seasons.
