June 21, 200620 yr So one of my online hobbies is seaching around some teams forums. Well once in awhile I come across some Marlins comments. Just thought I would share. I found a few on the Yanks board."I'm really glad I invested in mlb.tv in order to watch more of the Fish. Even if they don't make a run until next year (and they most likely will not make the playoffs this year), it's still impressive they way they rebuid. The fire sales aren't pretty -- but they definitely have the whole "trade veterans for top prospects" down pat." "I'm moving to Jupiter Florida in 2 1/2 weeks. The Marlins will be 45-60 minutes away. I look forward to seeing some of their games." "Marlins have a 9 game win-streak going. Beat up on the O's Daniel Cabrera and his 'high 90's' fastball all night. It wasn't like he was walking anyone either.....he was throwing 'heat' and they were teeing off on it. We better hope that 'train slows down before it rolls into Penn Station' on Friday. Should be a good match up...Joe T vs Joe G .." I am looking for somemore . Feel free to add some you found.

The Braves look like last place will be their home now. It is pretty depressing. It is hard to take, but that is what happens when everything seems to go wrong.

Proves that money doesn't necessarily produce a winner. Options Reply From: doom2pro 12:31 am To: smoltzchipperdruw06 (4 of 5) 73611.4 in reply to 73611.3 And in third place... I am shocked... I thought they were dead meat, bottom of the pond, sleeping with the fishes er... I dont think the Braves will finish last though, they will either finish third or forth...

June 21, 200620 yr Here are a couple messages from a Nats fan forum. Author Topic: Braves in LAST place in NL East NatsHoo 10 and 5 Guy Member # 1597 Rate Member posted June 17, 2006 07:27 PM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If Florida wins -- and they're up 7-2 -- they will move into a last place tie with the Braves. Both teams will be 9 games under .500 and 13.5 games out of first. I don't know about you, but I'd LOVE to see the Braves finish in last place this year. That would be priceless for those apathetic, worthless fans. And four days later, same thread... Maximus 10 and 5 Guy Member # 1189 Rate Member posted June 21, 2006 11:04 AM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Originally posted by Candlestick Parker: Now that the Marlins have sailed ahead the Nats, this gets my vote for dumbest thread topic ever. BTW, if you look at runs scored vs. runs allowed, which is usually the best predictor of what teams will do in the future, Florida is likely to keep going up. They have a better RS/RA than anyone in the NL East except the Mets. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The more interesting stat is their cost per victory is remarkably low! Payroll isn't always the best indicator of performance. http://www.ballparkguys.com/ubb/ultimatebb...41;t=009964;p=1
