August 22, 200520 yr Nice to see a complete team effort. - Dontrelle battled and gave us 5 innings, even when not getting the inside corner strike and pitching through many difficult situations. He gets the W - Offense with 5 runs on 9 hits, enough to give the pithcing some cushion - Alfonseca solid with a 123 inning - Mota with his best outing of the year, 2 innings 5 Ks, no hits - Jones, Game Over (enough said) Honorable mention - Easley (solid on D, 4 times on the bases) - Treanor (another solid job behind the plate) both of them, filling in very nicely for Luis and loDuca :notworthy
August 22, 200520 yr Agreed. With the Big 3 dominating the way they are plus our depth, I think the rest of the NL wild card teams are more afraid of us than anybody else. Its becoming practically an auto-win when we either scoire more than 5 runs or have Vargas, Train, Josh, or AJ pitching nearly complete games. Now its time to go on the road and take at least 2 of 3 from Milwaukee.

August 22, 200520 yr Author I expect no less than a Milwaukee sweep. 911654[/snapback] I'd take 2 out 3 hopefully
August 22, 200520 yr I expect no less than a Milwaukee sweep. 911654[/snapback] We don't have to face Ben Sheets so that is a possibility. Their weakest pitcher we face with Moehler/Valdez on the mound.
August 22, 200520 yr Florida at Milwaukee 8:05 PM XM 184 Tickets Beckett vs Capuano Florida at Milwaukee 8:05 PM XM 184 Tickets Burnett vs Ohka Florida at Milwaukee 2:05 PM XM 184 Tickets Moehler vs Davis Thats how our pitching is rounding up for the Brew Crew series. Not sure if Meoh is 100% for Thursday
August 22, 200520 yr I expect no less than a Milwaukee sweep. 911654[/snapback] Expecting a sweep on the road against anyone is tough...It's definitely possible, but if the Marlins leave Miller Park with 2 wins, I'll be very happy.
August 22, 200520 yr Florida at Milwaukee 8:05 PM XM 184 Tickets Beckett vs Capuano Florida at Milwaukee 8:05 PM XM 184 Tickets Burnett vs Ohka Florida at Milwaukee 2:05 PM XM 184 Tickets Moehler vs Davis Thats how our pitching is rounding up for the Brew Crew series. Not sure if Meoh is 100% for Thursday 911661[/snapback] That first one will be tough. Cap is pitching damn good ball altely. Plus the last one too. The middle game should be a locke.
August 22, 200520 yr I expect no less than a Milwaukee sweep. 911654[/snapback] Yeah, they are a bunch of pushovers. MLB should probably just credit us with 3 wins for that series allowing our players to take some R&R in the Bahamas.
August 22, 200520 yr they got 5 solid starters and an ace in sheets and Prince Fielder and Rickie Weeks r both gonna be mosters
August 22, 200520 yr I expect no less than a Milwaukee sweep. 911654[/snapback] :plain 2 of 3 would be more than fine.
August 22, 200520 yr Not to worry we will win at least 2 of those games. The Marlins don't loose games when I am in attendance and I will be at the games on Wed and Thur. So if we can win tommarow then a sweep is very likely.
August 22, 200520 yr Newbie here Getting back to the original post, I don't think that todays game was the most important game of the week, because we're expected to win with Dontrelle against a AAA guy. The way we won it was cool but I think how we do without the three Aces is probably more important.
August 22, 200520 yr When Alfonseca came in, this guy behind me started booing at loud as he could and then this elderly man next to him called the guy a wise ass and told him to shut up, then they exchanged a few words. Then when Alfonseca got out of the inning, the old guy said something and they almost got into a fight :lol .
August 22, 200520 yr great win today.. as long as we win both road series ill be happy 911751[/snapback] My sentiments exactly :thumbup ...and a couple of Braves losses wouldn't hurt either

Plus today was terrific to see the bullpen really do the job.
