June 27, 201214 yr We should put Dobbs in the leadoff spot. According to Tommy Hutton, he's an on-base guy. We need Boni back.
June 27, 201214 yr Just sign Wes Helms already and get it over with. Kearns in left Helms at first Craig Counsell at second base Edgar Renteria at short Brett Barberie at third base Charles Johnson catcher Chuck Carr center field Sheffield right field Charlie Hough pitching No love for Scott Pose or Quilvio Veras?
June 27, 201214 yr My quality of life has been drastically diminished. Anyone else feel that way? Kinda, I mean everything else feels better when your team is winning
June 27, 201214 yr Today, Cubs callup 1B prospect Anthony Rizzo. We don't have a kind of ready-to-callup player right now. It makes me sad again. If we failed the race in near future, we should think about selling player, aggressively.
June 27, 201214 yr We need to package Anibal and Gaby as well as Hanley and Ricky, get those salaries off our books, bring in more talent and then call up some talent. Give Dominguez 3b for the remainder of the year and put Lomo at 1st for good and see what happens. I mean we're already in the basement as is, mind as well make some moves. You could go ahead and ship big Z off somewhere too. Reyes Boni Lomo Stanton Ruggiano Infante Dominguez Buck Same AAA team with just a few more prospects down on the farm...
June 27, 201214 yr Man that would be a fire sale. Aren't we only a few games outta the wc? I know things look bleak right now but damn.

June 27, 201214 yr Author Only 5.5 out of the Wild-Card and we proved in 2003 that we can climb back up. Thru the same amount of games in 2003, we were further back and had more teams ahead of us.
June 27, 201214 yr This is not 2003 and DTrain and Miggy aren't coming. Totally different set of circumstances.

June 27, 201214 yr Author This is not 2003 and DTrain and Miggy aren't coming. Totally different set of circumstances. IMO, this team is better talent wise than the team that started 2003 so that makes up for some of the DTrain and Miggy aspect.
June 27, 201214 yr I think the 03 team was better constructed to win, with a great defensive squad, very good pitching, and great situational hitters (not to mention leadership from Pudge). This team's talent is certainly higher than our current record shows. Hell just about everybody on this squad is performing below their career averages. I'm not willing to compare this group to the 03 team. Seems like while you could compare the way the Marlins put that 03 team together like fitting jigsaw pieces to create a finished piece of work, this Marlins team has tried jamming a couple pieces where they don't below and expected a nice looking puzzle. The outfield is a mess, our catcher is a waste offensively, our superstars haven't performed like superstars, just about everything that could go wrong this month has gone wrong.

Well keep in mind that upon review of the 2003 Marlins, hindsight is 20/20. At this point in the season of that team I doubt anyone was going on about how it's still a team built to win with great defense and pitching and blah blah blah, ya know?
June 27, 201214 yr Only 5.5 out of the Wild-Card and we proved in 2003 that we can climb back up. Thru the same amount of games in 2003, we were further back and had more teams ahead of us. 2003 team played as a team and had the intestinal fortitude to comeback, and they did. I don't see it in this bunch, but who knows, maybe they can find it soon. But faith from outside is just about all spent.

Haven't lost pitchers to the DL
