954718 Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Hopefully, this hasn't been done before (I didn't notice any). How about starting off the second half with view on how the team will do on each homestand and road trip? This is just about the Marlins W-L record, not anything about how WAS or ATL will be doing and if we're going to catch them. We can't worry about things we can't control (until we play them) Yes, you can feel free to post "were going 10-0 and going to destroy every team" if you want to. Marlins currently at 44-42 Jul 14-17 @ Philly (4 games) we go 2-2 Jul 18-20 @ Arizona (3 games) we go 2-1 Jul 22-24 @ San Francisco (3 games) we go 1-2 That's a 5-5 road trip which has us coming back home at 49-47. Allright, start with your posts! My heart tells me we are on our way to 90-72! (although my head tells me 85-77). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSwift25 Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 If we're just talking this road trip, anything less than 6-4 has to be a failure considering we have played well against the Phillies and neither the Giants nor D'Backs have a winning record. However, this team will find a way to go 4-6 considering they never play well in California and the D'Backs are up there with the Braves and Pirates as teams you never want to see if you're trying to extend a winning streak if you're the Marlins.

JonDigital Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Jul 14-17 @ Philly (4 games) we go 3-1 Jul 18-20 @ Arizona (3 games) we go 2-1 Jul 22-24 @ San Francisco (3 games) we go 3-0 We come out of the road trip 8-2. i have this great feeling this ASB did some good for peoples minds in the clubhouse. i expect to see the Marlins come out strong outta the gate. of course i will eat my words if this doesnt happen.

SilverBullet Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 this is not my hope cause i would hate it...but my prediction is a painful one... Thursday its 9-0 over the phillies...friday is a frustrating 2-1 loss in 14 innings after leaving 17 on base...if that happens, we're back to square one no matter what happens next...

Fishfan79 Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 the fish will take 2/3 out of the rest of the series out there. they will end up on a terror and winning 94-68 about. Which will end up losing to the braves by 1 game for the Division (evil cox sold his soul I tell you). We will win the wild card Lets go fish!

The Marlin Man Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 we'll do better than in the first half..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canermedley Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Honestly I think this team is too inconsistent to win the NL East. They need a lot better bullpen. If they are going to trade Burnett, try to get a closer and a prospect for him or something. I am optimistic because I am still waiting for the Nationals to crumble but I know the Braves will only get better from here on out with players coming back from injury. Last year we finished 83-79 and had a huge late slump after being the the wild card race. My bet is we will win somewhere between 80-85 games this year. If the consistency is there maybe 85-90.
