April 4, 20233 yr 12 hits. 1 run. It's going to happen a lot. This team has almost all singles hitters, so it takes at least three hits to score a run. Combine that with the double plays we're going to hit into...I think the Marlins might be top 5 in the league in hits this season and bottom 5 in runs scored.

Nor to really steal bases like some teams are doing like its going out of style *cough Baltimore*

Yup, singles don't do any good if we can't drive them in.

April 4, 20233 yr I literally kept watching just for the Arraez at bats. Soler is looking damn good right now too. He's hitting the ball damn hard.

I haven't been to those drive in cinemas in about 20 years as well. I know that they shut down the circus years ago. But yeah, as a youngster went there quite a few times. Some good memories of watching movies with the whole family at the drive in. Back in the very early 2000's, back when things were still cheap and you could go to the circus and the drive in at the swap shop for just a few bucks and then on the way home stop at Wendy's for their 99 cent menu which actually had decent food for 99 cents. Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger, caeser side salad, baked potato, chili. 😂 You know, I was just thinking, in a few years most of the people from my generation (Late 20s to mid 30s currently) we're all gonna sound like old folks talking about "I remember back when MLB teams didn't have big goofy logos on their uniforms." 😂
