Going against my head, I'm taking Marlins 2-1 with Stowers powering the turnaround.

I guess they are hoping Marsee finally starts hitting, but batting a guy with an average at .156 atop the lineup is frustrating. So is playing a guy at 3B batting .174 who is maybe average at defense. These are dumb moves. Play Norby at 3B. Play De Los at 1B. Heriberto also needs to sit down. Play Ruiz as the righty bat off the bench once healthy, not Slater or Heriberto. Stowers, please help us!

Marlins 2-1. I see two RH pitchers, so Mr. Norby, come on down to receive your MVP award.

That was disgusting. They had a chance to win back to back games in Atlanta for the first time in like 3 years and puked it up. I'm still on the play Norby at 3B and put a another bat in the lineup at 1B. It might not be fair, but I don't know if Pauley's bat will ever come around. Is he that much of a defensive wizard at 3B that we need to play him?

They need to figure it out so they're ready for October ;)

After looking like the Dolphins in chilly games on the road this was a great site to see. We had the two headed catching monster tearing Atlanta up. Braves officials were about to call in Mothra for defense of the skies. Norby improving at the plate. I still don't like him at 1B. I would move Norby to 3B over Pauley and play De Los and Stowers if they plan on easing him in. At that point, Morrel should be ready to go and we can see if his bat is ready for a comeback or just lean back into recent production, which could possibly leave them searching deep into the season at 1B. I'm still pulling for De Los.

I too was skunked in my picks against the Tigers. Ouch. Braves win, 2-1. Acuna is MVP

I've been wanting Dlos to play 1B, so it's a great turn of events. Here's hoping to him being able to stick around.

The musical chairs at 1B is now just comical. I know the who's on first is a legendary comedy bit, but I never expected the Marlins to do sketch comedy of their own at the position.

I'm going to take the Marlins on the road in this series, 2-1 for the fish. MVP will be Otto Lopez. That Sunday pitching matchup is primetime worthy. MLB must be happy how that ended up. Go fish!

Holy s**t! I am so hyped. Finally what I have been b!tch!ng about. We are going to have DeLos, Owen, and Conine all on the big league roster. Inject this into my veins! A placebo, of course. :P Regarding Max, I always thought he would end up a beast closer. I'm not sure now that it would work out, but are we judging him as a #3 starter? Wasn't he #3 last year before injury? I think if he was 4th or 5th starter it might look different, but where he was drafted clouds the judgement and outlook on him being that kind of starter.

With Kevin in first, when are we allowed to petition the commissioner for potential insider trading? The SEC needs to be made aware of this market manipulation. ;)

A much better performance. Crazy what putting in better hitters does, lefty/righty be damned. Great to see X in the two spot, Hicks in the lineup, and Conine looked great. Owen didn't get a hit, but glad he was in the lineup. He needs seasoning. I feel like we are wasting cooking time playing Slater, and to some extent, Heriberto. I know they use him for righty splits, but right now I think Berto and Slater are on the move on list once others get healthy. We'll see. Let's take this nooner and split the series. Go fish!

If this team wants to take the next step then they need to get their @$$ chewed out when they do dumb sh1t. I hope skipper and the analytics department is proud of themselves with two runs over two games, completely blowing amazing pitching performances. Why in the ever living bleep is Slater still leading off? Why are we playing hitters who are ice cold just because they bat from a certain side of the plate while sitting our hottest hitters? Two runs over two days. Marlins should be leading this series 2-0. I get the calling pitches from the dugout is working, but don't always try to be the smartest guy in the room. Cono! I am enjoying Gus and his ABS calls. Dude is showing the eye of the tiger.

He pretty much gave the team a Sandy start and they rewarded him like they used to reward Sandy, with a sugary donut. So now with real Sandy starting tonight, I hope they exorcised the demons in last nights bats.
