September 12, 200619 yr You really have to hand it to Beinfest and Co. for some of these "little" acquisitions they made. Ross, Borchard, Amezaga and Helms have been great off the bench and when they need to start.
September 12, 200619 yr Author Hopefully the Marlins saved some offense for the next two games. can you rly save offense? where does it go...in the offense bank or something? My intuition tells me that 9 times out of 10 an offense performs poorly the game after scoring a lot of runs. That goes for any team, not just the Marlins. women's intuition doesn't apply to baseball.

September 12, 200619 yr Im sure its not fact but it does seem like whenever an offense scores 10+ runs they come back with between 1-4 the next night
September 12, 200619 yr 3 multi-HR games for Ross this year.. unbelievable. Who? Do I really need to elaborate on that comment?
September 12, 200619 yr Cody had a great nite so did the offence Ross is going to be starting a few more games from now on

(No offense to Penguino)
September 12, 200619 yr Cody Ross is medieval -- MEDIEVAL, I tell ye! :dwarf :lol THOR Has anyone noticed when Anibal starts, Ross has a GREAT game. He was responsible for some of Sanchez' other wins too. the 1-0 game over WSH and the 2 homers he hit against ATL in a 2-1 win. :mischief2 7 of his 12 homers have come on times when Anibal pitches
September 12, 200619 yr King Cody! okay that's a bit much, but wow have guys like Borchard & Ross really come through big in this recent surge. (To say nothing of Wes Helms & his ridiculous average as a pinch-hitter this year....)
September 12, 200619 yr AND, AND, AND I believe Cody is capable of playing CF-so do it. I was sitting behind Met fans last night when they walk Amezega to get to Anibal. I told them, bad scouting report, you should pitch to AA-its like having two number 9 hitters in the lineup. Anibal gets the hit. Frankly, I just do not remember all the hits AA has gotten to give him a .270 average (or around). I won't forget the key hit against Milwaukee, his 3rd from the right side all year.
September 12, 200619 yr Cody was a key adquisition who was brought in after Joe Borchard was signed. He made an immediate splash on the Team. He seemed somewhat forgotten for awhile. He is a key component on this ballclub. I really believe he should be playing over Pasta. Our best OF has Willy, Hermida and Cody. rarely have they ever played together. I think it's a good idea since we are not getting a centerfielder
September 12, 200619 yr Just ride him while he's still hot Streaky as hell hitter but when he's hot, he's hot
September 12, 200619 yr I bet Cincy wishes they still had him. Cincy wishes they had a lot of things right now Off Topic but in your sig where it says 'We could have had Preston' I agree 100% if your say what I think you are (in that we should have picked him up when he was available) Preston > Alfredo And thats on any given day of the week
September 12, 200619 yr Did anyone catch him on 790 The Ticket this morning at 10:15? He was chatting for about 15 minutes. Good Stuff.

My intuition tells me that 9 times out of 10 an offense performs poorly the game after scoring a lot of runs. That goes for any team, not just the Marlins. I agree 100%. And 7 times out of 10, when a team gets flat out spanked like the Mets did last night, they usually bounce back and play very well. Hope it doesnt happen but Ive seen it happen many times. King Cody! okay that's a bit much, but wow have guys like Borchard & Ross really come through big in this recent surge. (To say nothing of Wes Helms & his ridiculous average as a pinch-hitter this year....) We were chanting "Cody" at the stadium last night BEFORE he hit the 3rd HR. What a beast. My new nickname for him is the Microwave

September 12, 200619 yr Didnt the Fish kill the Brewers to sweep and then came back to score 8 runs the next game. This team doesnt give a hoot about statistics.

Im amazed that I was able to amaze you. But if you got my point, why are you breaking my ba**s? I never said it was factual. Next time I'll put a disclaimer.
