March 29Mar 29 Our first three wins in the 2025 season all be the one-run games, our first two wins in the 2026 season all be the one-run games, too.

March 29Mar 29 I have been listening to the game on radio while helping a family member move furniture. Finally get a chance to sit down and watch.
March 29Mar 29 Author As a whole, lineup has been pretty ineffective against bad pitchers this series
March 29Mar 29 To start the year the Marlins offense:Stat Number MLB Rank (NL Rank)AVG: .280 4th (3rd)OBP: .355 5th (2nd)SLG: .419 10th (6th)OPS: .774 8th (5th)SB: 6 2nd (2nd)- The Brewers are 1st and we face the team that gave up those steals next.BB: 8 21st (11th)K: 19 4th (3rd)Runs: 10 22nd (10th)The peripherals look good. They are also hitting the ball hard. Would like to see more walks and homers, but I like the process I am seeing from the guys and I think those will come soon enough. The only reason why they have scored so few runs is because they have bad numbers with RISP. This unit was really good in that split last year, so you can't say it is some kind of lack of clutch. I think it is early season flukey struggles that will even out. Hold on to the peripherals and good things will happen.

And they won three 1-run games. I wouldn’t shift the outlook any just yet.

I get minimizing the wins because the Rockies are bad, but it is at the very least 3 wins better off than last year at this point. Anyway, I have been an optimist for this team so my outlook hasn't shifted from these wins.

However, games against bad teams are games a good/decent team should win, so it is good that the team was able to pull out wins in all 3 games. Obviously it doesn't mean we're World Series bound, but it's promising.

March 30Mar 30 I miss those days that always have hundreds of posts in a single game thread, I think there's no going back. Edited March 30Mar 30 by TaiwanMarlins
