March 24, 201412 yr A pretty bizarre statement by David Samson (surprise!) that the Marlins need to speed up the pace of play, even though they were 2nd fastest in the majors last year. Apparently he's not satisfied and claims that it's hard to market a team that plays 3 1/2 hour games (which they don't though). I can never understand this person. http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/10666381/david-samson-wants-miami-marlins-play-faster-games
March 24, 201412 yr He does have a point- how many 3 up , 3 down innings did we have? What's it going to be like with a team that can hit for a league average OBP?
March 24, 201412 yr wow...could it get any more embarrassing? According to the article, the Marlins already had one of the shortest average game times in the league. So what exactly is Samson talking about? This is beyond bizarre.
March 24, 201412 yr This is not the first time he says this. Samson is an idiot. Hopefully the players take a lot of pitches and Cishek comes in crawling from the bullpen before he saves a game.
March 25, 201412 yr Guys, it's obvious. The shorter the game the sooner they can shut everything off in the stadium and save money on electric and such.
March 25, 201412 yr Next Samson is going to suggest that the Marlins start wearing cotton uniforms. lol
March 25, 201412 yr Author According to the article, the Marlins already had one of the shortest average game times in the league. So what exactly is Samson talking about? This is beyond bizarre. I have no idea. I'm also wondering what possessed him to comment on such a minor thing to the media in the first place, considering he's been very very quiet lately.
March 25, 201412 yr That guy doesn't know his nut sack from his elbow. If he's worried about marketability, try winning!
March 25, 201412 yr That guy doesn't know his nut sack from his elbow. If he's worried about marketability, try winning! Anyone else took a quick peek at their nut sack to see if there's even the slightest resemblance to their elbow?
March 25, 201412 yr Just read the article. How about let the team play baseball and don't worry about how long it takes to play the game. Let the families enjoy it. Let us enjoy it.

March 25, 201412 yr Lol this is the type of article that would probably start a PR sh*t storm if the national media got a hold of it
March 25, 201412 yr Lol this is the type of article that would probably start a PR sh*t storm if the national media got a hold of it It's an ESPN article
March 25, 201412 yr Lol this is the type of article that would probably start a PR sh*t storm if the national media got a hold of it I don't think anyone really takes Samson seriously at this point
