SirFishFan Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 .500 record. 15-15. Do you think that the Marlins would need to go something around 20-10 over the next 30 games to realistically make the Post season. Or with the way every thing is going they might have a chance hovering around the .500 mark the rest of the way? (Of course, being the Marlins fan that I am, I'm secretly wishing around a 25-5 rest of the season. 😅) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 I think it is possible that a .500 team or even below .500 reaches playoffs but lets go at least 20-10 to be safe. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 20-10 would be great, higher seed for sure. But 15-15 would get us in, too, I'm pretty sure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverBullet Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I think it will take just a few games better than .500 to cement a spot unless one of the Phils Mets or Nats get super hot out of nowhere. With this shortened schedule I've been thinking since July about how much of a difference a good run can make in the standings and I think the Marlins have already had several strong runs. Might just take .500 with one or two really good weeks to lock it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got wrecked by Covid, lost half the team and 60% of the starting rotation. To be 15-15 after that, and all these double-headers, is fantastic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaiwanMarlins Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 What we need to do now was to figure out how to play the "home game" like a "home team" ASAP, we have more home games than the road games in the remaining season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Yeah, definitely need to pick things up at home if we want to go anywhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaiwanMarlins Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 If these Cinnemojis still there, maybe this team or the food company donates some money when the HRs of Marlins hitting them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishFan95 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 If the Marlins can somehow go into the 1st game against the Phillies 19-19 then I firmly believe that we will go to the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishFan95 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Also something that I would do strategy wise is to use the off day on Thursday to switch Sixto and Elieser in the rotation. That way Elieser and Trevor Rogers, who are clearly the bottom 2 starters in the rotation, are lined up to start on the two doubleheaders against Philly. It would maximize Sixto so he can go more than 7 innings and Elieser who would have less pressure to face the 3rd time in the order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we talking about that 7 game series? That seems to be the most important series of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won! Marlins went into that first game vs the Phillies on September 10th at exactly 19-19. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
