Shut Up Brian Sabean!
Posted on 3 Jun 2011 by Brendan Tobin.
This is what it’s come to? Wishing for careers to end? If you listen to Giants general manager Brian Sabean that’s what he’s telling you. The man who built the World Series Champion is still dwelling on the collision that sidelined Buster Posey for the season. He thinks that the big leagues would be better without Scott Cousins sitting on the Marlins bench. “If I never hear from Cou...

Don’t Stop Believing in Hanley Ramirez
Posted on 8 May 2011 by Brendan Tobin.
It’s getting pretty lonely on the Hanley Ramirez bandwagon. Fans are bailing fast on the Marlins shortstop. He finished his weekend with an unlucky 1 for 5 performance leaving his slash line at an unimpressive (.195/.291/.263). Fans and media are calling for manager Edwin Rodriguez to drop Ramirez in the order. The truth that fans have to realize is that the Marlins won’t go anywhere with...

What The Hell Has Got Into Emilio Bonifacio?
Posted on 5 May 2011 by Brendan Tobin.
Can anyone explain what kind of flaxseed oil concoction Emilio Bonifacio took before this season? The man is leading the team in hitting. That is not a typo. He’s leading the whole team in batting average (.346). This is more surprising than the team's (19-10) record which is third-best in the National League. Who would've thought at this time that Hanley and Bonifacio would have the sam...

Marlins’ Rotation is Starting to Shine
Posted on 25 Apr 2011 by Brendan Tobin.
The Rotation is starting to pull its weight. Exclude Josh Johnson from this conversation. He again was brilliant on Sunday and was cheated out of his fourth win because of the bullpen’s first blunder of the season. Ricky Nolasco has also been stellar solid giving the Marlins at least 7 innings in three of his first four starts. This is about the trio of Anibal Sanchez, Chris Volstad and Ja...

Hanley’s April Swoon Needs to End
Posted on 22 Apr 2011 by Brendan Tobin.
“Liz Franc” has been a cold woman to some of the best athletes in Miami. Tuesday night she claimed her latest victim, and the Marlins’ hottest hitter. Logan Morrison says he felt a pop in his foot as soon as he left the box. He’d go on to play two more innings against the Pirates before ultimately deciding to come out because his movement was severely compromised. Morrison was the team...

Heart of the Order Needs to Start Beating
Posted on 18 Apr 2011 by Brendan Tobin.
The Marlins are returning to South Florida from a (8-5) road trip. The Fish finished the weekend splitting a rain-shortened two game set. Neither Roy Oswalt nor Cole Hamels could hang on to notch win to their season records. The Marlins can be happy that they’re coming to the home with the best bullpen in baseball. They were able to split a series without starts from Josh Johnson or Ricky Nol...

Two cities down and one giant three game set to go. The Marlins now have been on the winning end of series in Houston and now Atlanta. Edwin Rodriguez pointed to this week as an early measuring stick for his club. Tuesday night didn’t have anything encouraging for Florida other than Hanley Ramirez and Mike Stanton finally back together in the starting lineup. Even with the 3-4 hitters back in...

Marlins Do The Texas Two-Step, Now On To Bigger Things
Posted on 10 Apr 2011 by Brendan Tobin.
Sweeping a series in Houston still eludes the Marlins, but this weekend’s series against the Astros wasn’t without its highlights. Ricky Nolasco gave the bullpen a much needed rest with his 8 inning performance on Friday night. Wandy Rodriguez had most of Florida’s lineup fooled all night but the duo of Gaby Sanchez and Logan Morrison combined for six hits to help the Marlins scratch out ...

Series Win Still Leaves A Sour Taste
Posted on 8 Apr 2011 by Brendan Tobin.
Every team goes into a three game set looking to win the series. But when the Marlins see the Nationals on the calendar they’re thinking sweep. That’s not just by reputation. The Fish have dominated NL East’s cellar dwellers since the end of 2007. Florida is 42-15 in that span. The first two games of the series reflected the record. The Marlins picked up a walk off win Tuesday on Donni...
