May 1, 201610 yr I've noticed that as we've won, these post game threads are getting shorter and the number of posters fewer. It's it just a coincidence or do we have a lot of negative people on this board who hate the fact they have nothing negative to say? Admin your thoughts?

Sent from my SM-G900T using MarlinsBaseball.com mobile app I don't know if it's that we're negative but it's just so much easier to watch a win and go out and do something else... but when there's a loss there's this dying urge to come on here and bitch and vent with people who understand us. It's not that we're negative it's that we need an outlet for our frustration more than for our joy. That's the simple of it I think.

Sent from my SM-G900T using MarlinsBaseball.com mobile app It's always like this. It's not that people are negative it's just that there's more to say when we lose. It gets boring just repeating "yay good game player X!"

That's the simple of it I think. well you already know from me, when marlins win, I watch other baseball games. when they lose, well I guess I hang out with my wife. and Brazilian soap operas are not fun.

Same attitude. I prefer positive discussions than negative ones. Good vibes. Sent from my SM-G900T using MarlinsBaseball.com mobile app

It's not that we're negative it's that we need an outlet for our frustration more than for our joy. That's the simple of it I think. Literally spot on. If we lose and I try to talk to anyone about it outside of the forums, other than my dad, they're just gonna give me generic responses. I like that I can go on here say how much I hate this ball club and have 30+ people agree with me and share the same frustration. Thanks for bringing this to light.

It's not that we're negative it's that we need an outlet for our frustration more than for our joy. That's the simple of it I think. If that's the case, then that is sad that there's more emphasis on misery than joy. It should really be the opposite. I mean when we win I don't want to do something else I want to celebrate with other fans. That's the cool part about being surrounded by fans, no? That you can celebrate successes.

May 1, 201610 yr Chen was very solid but after a decent start to the season, Breslow has had some rough outings. If only we had Dunn and Capps. Also, we may have scored 7 leaving the bases loses 3-4 times, that will normally haunt you at the end of the game.
May 1, 201610 yr We have power, we have pitching, we have contact, we have speed, we have fight. But do we have culture of winning?
May 1, 201610 yr But do we have culture of winning? the homestand coming up will have a lot to say about that.
May 1, 201610 yr the homestand coming up will have a lot to say about that. Agreed. It'll determine if this was a 2012 style win streak or if we can remain competitive
May 1, 201610 yr Bour , Realmuto and Dietrich all coming along offensively. Good to see. Also solid pitching from Conley and Chen.
May 1, 201610 yr There really is no need for Breslow anymore. He gets righties out better than he does lefties. Mattingly continues to go to him and he has proven is how infective he is. DFA him already and bring up Wittgren or Ellington. Although it hasn't been 10 days since Nick got optioned. Sent from my iPhone using MarlinsBaseball.com mobile app
May 1, 201610 yr Mattingly likes having two lefties in the bullpen even if one of them sucks. Or, in this case, even if both of them suck.
