Considering we only play them 13 times ... lol.

They're not going to season-sweep us.

78 wins. 

We ain't winning 85. Unfortunately.

O/U for Vegas is 78.5 I believe, @pollythewog bet the beach house on the under

Every one he’s acquired sucks.

I’ll be happy if they all way outperform their numbers Rays-style, but I have zero confidence they do.

it’s just pathetic that this is how they follow up a playoff season.

 

whether or not Kim’s offseason would’ve been different I don’t know, but just about anything would’ve been better than this.

Seems like he is getting guys with numbers so bad that outperforming them is more likely than not, then Bendix can claim success.

Seems about right. Might have to make a pitstop to my nearest casino then. I'd take the under also.

I think even 78 at this point is quite unlikely.  78 is assuming FULL HEALTH for every starting pitcher.  And the odds of that happening is......

The depth behind the top starters is well....in the sage words of Craig Mish.... 'Yikes'

 

There are numerous reasons why I've been harping on this organization being light on pitching going into the season.  The innings limitations that WILL exist is one reason.  The odds of someone missing time due to injury is the other.

That's cool, bro. 85 wins.

-310 if you pick the fish to miss the playoffs.  Sounds about right.

They got lucky often last year and had Soler + Sandy (even not at his best).  Hard to expect much from this current roster.

I expect 85 wins.

if only someone would predict 85 wins.  It could happen.

I think 70ish is most likely because arraez and lizard will be traded around all star break plus tanner Scott probably so will playing second half with prospects

i fully believe they'll be traded as well around the deadline unless one gets injured right before or something.

and they literally have one of the shittiest farm systems in MLB so yeah, 68-70 wins if that happens. If for some reason Bendix doesn't do what he'll most likely do - then I could see this team winning around 76-78 games.

also, without signing any FA's Sherman could at least do everyone a solid and release Avi so he can stop clogging up the roster.

This could be the most boring off-season in team history. At least 1998 had some firesale trades. They sucked but it wasn't boring!

And technically the off-season ends when the team reports to spring training IMO which is 5 days away. We could actually go the entire off-season without one FA signing.

Just think how much more epic the story will be when the Marlins win the WS this year.

Just on the high of knowing the Marlins will get at least 85 wins.

To this team, no expectations, no disappointments. 

This is pretty interesting because his name just so happens to be pronounced the same as what I'm gonna put in your mouth.
