July 15, 20179 yr What can you say but Ramos had a bad night. Two wild pitches, walk, got into 3-X scenario so he had to throw strikes. And a little off but still a fast ball, Puig hit it out with a walk on bases. Dee had an error which gave up a run, but it didn't affect the final score, i.e., they won by 2 not 1. Other than the 9th the Marlins kept the Dodgers off base/low score and we had offense. It's like the problem tonight was that they gave up before the 9th inning was played. Volquez is out for Sunday so Koehler pitches. And last couple games hasn't been that great for Volquez anyway.
July 15, 20179 yr 2 outs and then gives up a single, a walk and a 3 run homer? That is not a closer. Ramos can fucking Vamonos
July 15, 20179 yr I was sitting in the first row behind the Marlins dugout. It was the most crushing loss I've ever seen live. At at one point, Urena had one leg completely over the railing on his way to go celebrate.

At at one point, Urena had one leg completely over the railing on his way to go celebrate. Speaking of Urena, I wonder if teams would be interested in him. I'd trade him in a heartbeat too.
July 15, 20179 yr It's just the first game of second half… But it wasn't the first loss of the season.
July 16, 20179 yr I really cared and was invested in every game until Ramos blew that save. My son told me today he just can't root for the Marlins anymore. Broke my heart.

Chances are I'll change my mind after a few days but yeah last night's loss was deflating for me. I just felt like why do I even bother watching this crap? And should I even bother again? I know what the answer is but in the short term I'm just drained. I could have easily watched tonight's game but I purposely skipped it which I really never do even things are horrible. I'll probably do the same for a bit now.

It's why I insisted to against the idea of fully rebuild,just imagining how frustrated you would be in those darkness period and that would be much more difficult than now…
July 16, 20179 yr It's why I insisted to against the idea of fully rebuild,just imagining how frustrated you would be in those darkness period and that would be much more difficult than now… No it wouldn't. Have you seen what the Cubs Astros and Brewers did? I'd be happy with a proper rebuild knowing it would lead to a championship team sooner than later. What we have now instead is a team that keeps losing and losing and has no winning future in sight. I'm ready to shake things up because it's better than what we have now. I can't see how you don't see this.

July 16, 20179 yr He apparently prefers to have little hope each year and do that until each player leaves as a free agent. You're right,I prefer to have little hope than hopeless.
July 16, 20179 yr It's amazing how many fans prefer, or think they prefer, keeping the same roster for the sake of saying they kept them than changing the roster in the hopes of improving it.
July 16, 20179 yr Ask Cubs fans if they'd rather have kept the 2011 team intact for the sake of stability and consistency instead of doing the rebuild they did. Ask the Astros if they'd rather have kept their 2012 roster instead of rebuilding like they did.
July 16, 20179 yr It's just the first game of second half… Make it 3. The team is 41-49. No idea why you want to keep this team together.
July 16, 20179 yr Ask Cubs fans if they'd rather have kept the 2011 team intact for the sake of stability and consistency instead of doing the rebuild they did. Ask the Astros if they'd rather have kept their 2012 roster instead of rebuilding like they did. You need to ask them this question in the start of the rebuild and not after they have success…
July 16, 20179 yr Make it 3. The team is 41-49. No idea why you want to keep this team together. Not surprised we sweep the Giants because they're so bad and not surprised we're swept by the Dodgers because they're so good,so maybe it's not surprised too that we sweep the Phillies and the Reds next…
July 16, 20179 yr Make it 3. The team is 41-49. No idea why you want to keep this team together. He likes losing for the sake of roster stability.
July 16, 20179 yr He likes losing for the sake of roster stability. I remember you and Admin would always said it's just a over reacting to a "three losses in a row",right ?
July 16, 20179 yr I remember you and Admin would always said it's just a over reacting to a "three losses in a row",right ? Not when the team is now 41-49 with a core group that hasn't made the playoffs since it was put together a really long time ago.
July 16, 20179 yr Cubs fans were fine with the rebuild because hte front office presented it to the fans with a real game plan of how ot get back to winning. You fail to forget that Jeff Loria cant even have long term dinner plans because his mind changes on a whim so often.
July 16, 20179 yr Ask Cubs fans if they'd rather have kept the 2011 team intact for the sake of stability and consistency instead of doing the rebuild they did. Ask the Astros if they'd rather have kept their 2012 roster instead of rebuilding like they did. yeah and the diff is those organizations do have people that knows how to do their job, Marlins have been trying to rebuild since 2003. Inept owner would hire inept front office personnel and the result= Marlins
