August 1, 20197 yr How much longer we THE FANS need to wait for the Marlins to terminate Mr. Mattingly?, He is a disgrace to the the team I love with my heart, We don't even have a steady lineup and then Mr. Yankee gets mad when fans don't go to the stadium, no one will support the team the way is setup today, a loosing team, when a lineup do great in one game Mr. Mattingly changes it for the next game???, It is ridiculous, Not ONLY the worse record in the National League but the worse Marlins season since 1993
August 1, 20197 yr Even if the Marlins lose the extra innings game against the Twins today, they would not be on pace to lose 100 games this year. Considering how much better the team has been since the 10-31 start, it now seems unlikely that they will even reach that mark. So, I would say that this year is no worse than 2013 or 1998. As for Mattingly, I feel like they are doing the attrition approach. As in wait until his contract expires at the end of the year and not renew. Besides, it could be worse than Mattingly. We could have Gabe Kapler or Dave Martinez as our skipper.
August 1, 20197 yr I'm with FishFan - they'll let him run out his contract and bring in a new guy next year.
August 1, 20197 yr . Besides, it could be worse than Mattingly. We could have Gabe Kapler or Dave Martinez as our skipper. They will probably hire someone like that. Let me look into my crystal ball......David Eckstein.
August 1, 20197 yr They will probably hire someone like that. Let me look into my crystal ball......David Eckstein. I just thought it has been hilarious that over different parts of the season, with the Marlins in last place the whole year, the Marlins have played 3 different teams in the division (PHI, WAS, NYM) while their fans were actively calling for their manager's head on twitter.
August 1, 20197 yr That is funny. What percentage of teams fans are doing this during a typical season? Probably high right? It was bound to happen in the east though because aside from the marlins each team thought they were positioned to make a run so someone was going to be angry

When the Marlins enter their window, the Braves might be the only team in the way.

August 1, 20197 yr Mattingly isn’t hurting this team. He doesn’t have enough talent to win. As it is, the team is a not so terrible 32-34 since the 10-31 start.
August 1, 20197 yr As it is, the team is a not so terrible 32-34 since the 10-31 start. Nah man, worst Marlins team ever. Hell worst MLB team ever!
August 2, 20197 yr Mattingly isn’t hurting this team. He doesn’t have enough talent to win. As it is, the team is a not so terrible 32-34 since the 10-31 start. Eh ... I think the team would be over .500 in that span if not for a good number of Mattingly's decisions. Many of those decisions involve one Adam Michael Conley.
August 2, 20197 yr misleading... I thought this was a "How much longer until Isan gets called-up" thread
August 2, 20197 yr As it is, the team is a not so terrible 32-34 since the 10-31 start. That can't be right. The Marlins are literally a minor league team.
August 2, 20197 yr misleading... I thought this was a "How much longer until Isan gets called-up" thread I thought this thread was created by my wife after last night.

August 2, 20197 yr Yeah, I was going to say don't forget about Chen. Sure, but Chen has for the most part been used in crappier spots where a comeback is very unlikely [and about three or four boneheaded spots]. Conley has consistently been thrown into high leverage situations.
