JJ stings Rays, as Marlins take 2 of 3
Posted on 21 Jun 2010 by Keith Kobler.
In a season that has been thus far a disappointment, Josh Johnson continues to look like a sure candidate for the N.L. Cy Young this year as he again took the mound and baffled the opposition, this time he got the best of the A.L. co-division leaders and in-state rivals, the Tampa Bay Rays. It's nice to see that Josh Johnson will not become the next Zane Smith and only have success against my...

Deserving Fish, not fairing well in early All-Star Poll’s
Posted on 26 May 2010 by Keith Kobler.
The voting for the 2010 All-Star game is currently in full swing and once again we are seeing exactly why the voting is more a popularity contest then it is actually for first half's performance. Marlins 2b Dan Uggla, who currently leads the National League with 12 homers and 3B Jorge Cantu, who ranks 4th in the N.L. with 34 RBI's are nowhere to be found at the top of the list of vote getters....

Posted on 19 Apr 2010 by Keith Kobler.
The Marlins entered the weekend series versus the Phils at Citizens Bank Ballpark with a respectable 6-4 record thus far this year. Not bad but considering the competition, The Mets, Dodgers, and Reds it's nothing manager Fredi Gonzalez would write home about. Florida's first real opportunity to test how elite they can be in the National League East would come against the N.L. Champs, the Phila...
