SIXTO CLOCK is another success!

We win a series IN Atlanta! Weehaw! AND A COMBINED SHUTOUT!

Homers from Joyce, Alfaro, and COOPAHHHH!

Brian Anderson reached base all five times tonight.

Hoyt was a bit wobbly but Bleier got him out of it.

Nick Jan Michael Vinxent was sexy in the 8th.

Stanek returned and pitched a scoreless night.

Let's sweep these fucks tomorrow.

Soooo muthafuckin crispy!!!

And Pablo going tomorrow gives us a chance for the double breaded extra crispy sweep! Man how nice to have reliable starting pitching basically every night!

That was some badass Sixto there.  This is great.  If we can just score some runs down this stretch like tonight...

And tonight's win takes the Marlins to a 0 run differential, second best in the division. That is wild when you consider the context of the season, how the Marlins have basically been throwing flotsam from the waiver wire onto the mound for a month (up until, what, a week and a half ago?).

If they go deep into the playoffs, there better be a dang Disney movie about this season.

Nice! Let's keep this going.. One game at a time..

Marlins at bats are getting better than ever.. still a lot to work on, but compare to even 1-2 weeks ago, definitely noticing a good improvement. And if the pitching can stay strong as it has been lately and the improved hitting can continue, Marlins just might  have the potential to possibly go really far this season, and maybe even post season.

Fuxk you Braves !!!

A win like this over a team that's clearly better than us is also another nice confidence boost for this group.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have an ace!

Gained ground on Philadelphia too.  They lost the second game of the DH

I love Jazz Chisholm and hope that he will have an amazing MLB career.

 

But we really need Berti back.. or in the meantime maybe some at bats for Isan Diaz/Eddy Alvarez?

 

Or do you guys think it's better to keep him out there getting ABs?

Keep getting him ABs. Isan won't be ready for probably another week, I imagine.

If the guys around him hit like they did tonight, it can be contagious.  He should see better pitches too.

He does still have to fix his approach, and quit chasing pitches, but seeing better pitches can help that.

I'll be so happy the moment he gets his first HR, or Double.. Right now he's bringing some Jesus Sanchez flashbacks.. But I know it's not fair to have that high expectations for him during this very unconventional season, but I do like this preview of the Marlins most likely SS of the future, once Miguel Rojas goes to that role of that Martin Prado veteran leadership presence on the team..

I watched the great performance tonight and the whole postgame, then what pops up after...

World Poker Tour

Time to CHANGE THE CHANNEL!!!

We should go to YouTube!

The bats have looked better recently because the lineup has been more RH balanced. 

Jazz, Diaz, should only start against RHP period.  On the plus side, they have played well in the field.  

 

What are our odds of making the playoffs you ask?

 

44.4%

Very crispy.

He can win the award and still not be a great in-game manager. Both can be true. 

Manager of the Year is often based on the most overachieving team which usually has very little to do with in game decisions. 

By the way how good does that Mattingly extension look now? Most expected a managerial change by now and no one would have complained if it happened but Donnie is showing he was worth keeping.

It does help change the silly idea that the manager who leads the team during the tanking years shouldn't or can't be the same guy when they wanna transition to contention. 

Sports news on the radio this morning: "Congrats on the Heat advancing to the conference finals and Colin Kaepernick has been added as a playable character in Madden after a recent update... that's all for sports"

So a video game content update is more important to report than the Marlins defeating the first place Braves for the second day in a row behind their ace rookie of the year candidate pitcher?
