July 12, 200521 yr i expect willis to throw a couple of innings and fair well but i expect cabs to go 2-2 with TWO DINGERS and the Ted Williams MVP award castillo will have a stolen base...hehe and dookie will play solid as well. good luck to the guys tonight :elefant
July 12, 200521 yr I have a bad feeling that D Train will be the 3rd or 4th pitcher (1 inning maybe), because LaRussa will let Carpenter pitch 3 innings (homerism of course). Cabs might play 1 inning, MAYBE 2 (there are 4 right fielders on the squad). Duca will get a good 3 innings by my estimate. Luis should get 4 or 5 innings, because he is the best 2nd baseman, hands down.
July 12, 200521 yr Well, it is POURING rain on the west side of Michigan right now. Supposedly, there are clear skies over D-Town. I guess I will hold back from predicting the game to be rained out. :thumbup As for the Fish, they will all be noticed as the key players in the NL's victory tonight over the much hated AL. D-Train and Cabs will especially represent our team well.

I guess we just have to wait and see if that really happens

July 12, 200521 yr Willis will be the 3rd pitcher used and will go 2 innings, 2 hits, no walks, no runs. Cabrera will play 2 innings, and will go 1-2. Luis will play 4 innings and go 0-2. Duke will play 4 innings and go 1-2 and will throw out a base runner.

Duke will play 4 innings and go 1-2 and will throw out a base runner. 852564[/snapback] Willis is currently the best pitcher IMO, but he'll be 3rd because of Cardinal homerism and respect for Roger.
July 12, 200521 yr D-Train: 1/3 IP, 1K Luis: He'll sub for Kent after the 5th inning and get 2 base hits. Lo Duca: Probably only come into the game when D-Train is pitching and will get at most 1 AB. Cabrera: He'll go yard.
July 12, 200521 yr It's pouring rain in Kalamazoo again. Good thing Detroit is not on this side of the state.
July 13, 200521 yr Train gets the win..... Miguel 1 RBI....1 run scored Luis...productive out. Duke....Single
July 13, 200521 yr I'd have to give the Marlins players a C-, with the exception of Luiy who had a few real nice defensive plays and a nice single.
July 13, 200521 yr The marlins at bats during the all star game was a microcosm of the marlins season so far..... we killed rallies, failed to drive in runs..
July 13, 200521 yr The entire NL might as well have been wearing Marlin unis, because that's who I felt I was watching.
July 13, 200521 yr The marlins at bats during the all star game was a microcosm of the marlins season so far..... we killed rallies, failed to drive in runs.. 853482[/snapback] Both Cabrera and LoDuca killed rallies by hitting into DPs. :thumbdown
July 13, 200521 yr It was nice to see the Marlins get so much playing time regardless of how they played. It seemed like the Marlins had more playing time total than any other team.
