June 5, 200521 yr First of all, we are lucky to be 1 game behind first place. We have played like crap (pitching, defense and offense). We have imploded on key moments of the games, dropping 8 of the last 10 games. We are better than this, and there is no excuse to continue on this slump. There is too much talent on this team. One thing I know for sure, we can't possibly play any worst. Easley needs to play every day, until he gets in a slump. Lowell must ride the bench, he is hurting us too much. Switch Castillo and JP in the line up, and play Matt T every 3rd day to give LoDuca a bit more rest. Hopefuly, this team looks different tomorrow and there is a 2nd air and a new begining.

As is our pitching.

June 5, 200521 yr i belive in them, soon the slump will be over and our marlins will be back to their selves.
June 5, 200521 yr Even good teams go on some skids during the season but this is starting to be a little reminiscent of last year. It seems like in that one key point during the game, we don't make something happen and the other team does--like last night when we had the bases loaded in the 8th, then the Nats come through in extras. I definitely agree on resting Paul more because he tends to fade in the 2nd half and Treanor's hitting well anyway so why not?
June 5, 200521 yr Atlanta and Pits were 0-0 until the 9th inning, then Atlanta musters up one measly run to win it 1-0. Now they're in first place. :mad :
June 5, 200521 yr Mikey needs to start getting splinters on his butt. This is getting out of hand. And I can't believe JP has been slumping a lot. He usually does it for a few games and gets out of it but his has been going on for quite a while as well.
June 5, 200521 yr I don't know whats going on. I'm convinced that the team will still win the division.
June 5, 200521 yr Switch Castillo and JP in the line up, and play Matt T every 3rd day to give LoDuca a bit more rest. 796153[/snapback] Switching JP and Luis could be a problem as JP is slapping everything on the ground right now and would hit into a lot of DPs.. I agree that Jack has been overusing LoDuca.
June 5, 200521 yr Good teams do not lose 8 of 10 796186[/snapback] Especially against bottom of the division teams. This reminds me too much of the 2nd half of last season.

June 5, 200521 yr Good teams do not lose 8 of 10 796186[/snapback] And bad teams lose 9 out of 11. 796281[/snapback] :plain
