Posted August 20, 201014 yr Sanabia emergency starts and has a career night, Gaby gets his first HR since July 30, Ronnie gets his first RBI since August 1. A good get back on track night.
August 20, 201014 yr Cody also had a nice hit all the way to the fence. And we need a NEW closer. No more roller coaster rides in the 9th is what I vote for :whistle
August 20, 201014 yr Way to take advantage Sanabia! Given the chance to redeem himself, he pitched great. Good job Gaby! Hey even Cody got a double tonight! But it was definitely Sanabia who shined tonight.

No more roller coaster rides in the 9th is what I vote for :whistle  Aw what's the Marlins without 9th inning drama? and I love how they go to the split screen with Leo and Ronny. In all seriousness, it shouldn't always have to be like that
August 20, 201014 yr Leo. So scared us again, but he saved. Sanabia' sinkers and changeups were very effective in this game. I like his pitching style. Gaby & LoMo... They did their jobs as a "LEFTY KILLER" (LoMo has had good numbers against lefty. That's impressive.)
August 20, 201014 yr Good for Paulino taking charge at the end. Nunez and his obsession with his changeup..
August 20, 201014 yr Good for Paulino taking charge at the end. Nunez and his obsession with his changeup.. Because throwing fastballs for leadoff homers is so much better.
August 20, 201014 yr I didn't watch the game, but http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crYDOdZ2LC4 As long as Sanabia continues to pitch well in the majors, I will never tire of posting this video.
August 20, 201014 yr Good for Paulino taking charge at the end. Nunez and his obsession with his changeup.. Because throwing fastballs for leadoff homers is so much better. Nunez has been throwing too many changeups lately and it's been an issue. Can anyone say anything?
August 20, 201014 yr Good for Paulino taking charge at the end. Nunez and his obsession with his changeup.. Because throwing fastballs for leadoff homers is so much better. Nunez has been throwing too many changeups lately and it's been an issue. Can anyone say anything?  The HR he allowed tonight was on his fastball. The domination last night was all his changeup. The two K's tonight were on fastballs. He has the stuff; people need to stop making a big deal about this.  We're not going to get a closer in the offseason better than him. People ask for a lights out closer as if there are more than a handful of them in the big leagues.
August 20, 201014 yr 60 up, 60 down. 120 in the books, 42 to go [unless they don't make up that one game against St. Louis] Hmm... if we go 30-12...
August 20, 201014 yr Good for Paulino taking charge at the end. Nunez and his obsession with his changeup.. Because throwing fastballs for leadoff homers is so much better. You obviously missed the sequence here. He threw 4 changeups in a row, and Andrew wasn't budging. The next two pitches were fastballs. See ya.  Anyway, Braves finally lost!
August 20, 201014 yr Very encouraging performance from Sanabia tonight. If he keeps this up, I want him around next season in the rotation. And put that blasted video away Dim
August 20, 201014 yr 60 up, 60 down. 120 in the books, 42 to go [unless they don't make up that one game against St. Louis] Hmm... if we go 30-12...   If not for that blown call by Davidson, we'd be 6 games out of the wild card with room to dream. That a whole!
August 20, 201014 yr Great outing by Sanabia even though it's against the hapless Bucs. I just love watching Morrison, Gaby and Stanton. Have the Marlins ever had so many promising rookies in the everyday lineup before? All 3 playing well too, future looks bright.

We gain a game in the standings, and an ounce of hope!

August 20, 201014 yr 2003- Miguel Cabrera and Dontrelle Willis.  Doesn't Mike Stanton trump everyone?
August 20, 201014 yr Well I said it in the game threads, but I'll say it again..Logan has the qualities of a lead-off hitter. He makes the pitcher work, draws walks, and gets on base. The fact that he's a rookie and hasn't been in the majors for long (I forgot when he came up, but it was way after Stanton) and the fact that he has good patient at-bats is great to see.
August 20, 201014 yr 2006 and 2010 rooies are very different to me. 2006 laid the foundation of a lot of power hitters and lots of k's while the last 2 years of coghlan, morrison, stanton, and gaby have added a new dynamic to the lineup that is low k, solid contact guys and then the masher in stanton. those 4 guys are exactly what the lineup needed rather than the ridiculous amount of k's we usually had.
