June 11, 200521 yr We have a game thread: http://www.marlinbaseball.com/forums/index...view=getnewpost
June 11, 200521 yr I wouldn't go that far, it's only 1 hit. He looked terrible in his previous 4 at-bats.
June 11, 200521 yr Conine had stated that the slump was so much in Mikey's head that he wouldn't get out of it for a long time. This slam has got to give him his confidence back. This very well could be the end of his slump. Fingers crossed.
June 11, 200521 yr Could this be the turning point? The floodgates have opened and hopefully these guys realize that they can win can keep it up...now what to do about that bullpen? WAY TO GO MIKE! :notworthy :thumbup
June 11, 200521 yr HOPEFULLY THIS IS THE START OF A WINNIN STREAK I THINK WE ALL DESERVE IT AND SO DO THE PLAYERS GO MARLINS!
June 11, 200521 yr He's looked much better lately. If he gets going it will be a huge lift, because Cabs and Delgado have been doing it all season. That's the 3-4-5 hitters everyone was talking about could've been among the best in the league.
June 11, 200521 yr just because he hits a grand slam doesn't necessarily mean he's out of his slump. 805157[/snapback] No it doesn't. But it certainly is going to improve his confidence....and that will get him out of the slump. To hit well you have to believe you can.
June 11, 200521 yr 1 for 5 and he is out of his slump? 805113[/snapback] yeah, he is when was the last time he had a swing like that on a fastball up in the zone, i'll tell you. april 12th besides the fact that he has 11 hits in june and had 17 in 25 games last month. i'd say he's slowly coming out of it and in the last couple weeks his average has gone from .175 to .225

June 11, 200521 yr Now hopefully he doesn't think he can hit one out all the time and start popping up as always.
June 11, 200521 yr Too bad it had to come at a moment when the game was pretty much already won. 805093[/snapback] A 2-run lead against a hot team in the Rangers is not "pretty much won".

If the Marlins bullpen is that bad, Beinfest bettter be on the phone with Oakland this minute. 805339[/snapback] Did I say that the bullpen was bad? No. But the Rangers are one of the best hitting teams in Baseball, so they could've easily come back from two runs down.
