Bullpen fucking blew after the 7th

Mattingly needs to learn how to shift - and why does he still put Bass in to pitch the 10th? Bass proves last year he sucks

The offense failed in the 10th and that was the middle of the order... 

I know it's Game 1, but this team will lose these close games until they spend and get that big elite clutch bat, they sure as hell can't draft and develop them...

I’m all in for firing Don Mattingly.

I’m not sure if his information is wrong or if it’s just coincidence, but I’ve never seen a team get screwed by shifts as much as the Marlins get screwed by shifts.

Today was especially. Shifting when Sandy throws 99 seems especially stupid since ball is pulled less

Just so frustrating - lots of good things happen late with a great comeback and that goes up in smoke on two pitches. Then they make a great play to eliminate the ghost runner and still manage to lose in the same inning. 

All in all I like the look of the lineup. 

The bullpen is extremely suspect - Bender and Bass have good stuff but when they are put in clutch situations they usually dont get it done.

the BA at bat was stupid.  Putting Bender in there in the 9th was what we all wanted so I don't think any of us can blame him for that.  That Scott dude from the Orioles looked nasty with his pitches.  If Mel can get him straightened out and he learns a little bit more control that's your closer right there. 

Really wish they had Holloway up for the pen. 

Bryan Reynolds please. Could have made the difference in this game.

Why do we bother?

See y'all next spring. 

I know it's only game 1, but I honestly feel the same - with Mattingly at the helm, we're going to lose by the stupid shifts and whatnot.

His option never should've been picked up.

What a shame to lose that game. What is Cooper doing leaving the bag on that ground ball. You learn that in little league. How can Donnie baseball stay with Bass when he walks the next batter after the bang bang play. It’s only one game but more of a long trend

Don had to leave Bass in because of the three batter rule. Ruf walking was only his second batter remember. So ... hand tied there. Could have used Armstrong perhaps to start the inning instead. Meh.

Cooper leaving the bag didn't bother me so much, cause if he went straight back to third, they turn a double play anyways and the inning is over regardless.

Don bringing in Anderson to face the lefty right after when he is terrible against lefties and still had De La Cruz on the bench was another nail in the coffin here. Guarantee Anderson starts tomorrow against Rodon, though.

Welcome to the board!
