****Official 2012 MIAMI MARLINS Thread****

I guess the terms perfect game and victory are a bit redundant

 

so true about Rich & Tommy. They are top notch. The Nationals announcers aren't bad (living in DC area), but don't compare to Rich & Tommy.

It's kinda like how Eric Reid and Tony Fierentino are amazing local broadcasters. Reid is one of the best I have ever heard.

 

Yabbadabba doo

 

No love for the radio team? They're pretty good too, even if they sound like the announcers from Major League.

 

I don't really listen to the radio broadcasts but if they are good, much respect as well. I think radio announcers in general are better though because they have to actually paint a picture for the listener.

 

Eh, I truly dislike the Marlins announcers. I am super picky with announcers however. But definitely dont enjoy them.

 

Aren't you a Rays fan? Don't worry I share the exact same feelings about your guys

 

Yes I am....

 

I don't know about the Rays announcers, but I envy their FO!

 

Every team should, especially their scouting department.

 

Allison Williams is hot. To me anyway.

 

Mainge.

 

Zambrano needs to settle down like he did last start. One pitch looks nasty and the next is three feet off the plate.

 

I usually hate bunting, but I don't mind it with Bonifacio. He's so fast, it's awesome.

 

Great game from Big Z tonight! Let's get him his first win as a Marlin.

 

Heath Bell says no!

 

Over under Zambrano punches out Bell?




On my bday? FML

 

Hate to say I told you so about Bell, and obviously its early, but spending money, especially top money, on an aging closer who seems to be on the downswing, just rarely works out. Im rooting for the Marlins, I root for them regularly. But, I didn't like that move, and done like it now. Bell will most likely shape up and be good. But will probably never live up to that contract. They should of taken the Rays route with the bullpen. Although our bullpen has been absolutely atrocious thus far...

 

Bell IMO should get a few mop-up outings to work on his stuff and remind him that his role isn't a given.

 

Because it's a bad signing.

 

Zambrano had the exact same velocity as his last outing.

 

Yea, I lost the bet.

 

Zambrano can throw 79 MPH if he gets the results of today....on his part not the team result.

 

Agreed.

 

That was never in question.

 

I didn't see the home run. Is the sculpture atrocious or not?

 

I didn't see it either but don't tell me. I wish to imagine it in all its horrendous glory.

 

Whats even better than that atrocity is that Billy the Marlin is now the living embodiment of the Stantontron

 

Good Lord, what have those bastards done to Billy?

 

Are you ****ing kidding me? Are you ****ING kidding me?

Extra innings, runners on first and third 2 outs and a chance to END THE GAME and you let the ****ING pitcher hit?

 

Lol. I don't get it

 

But, but Ozzie Guillen made a joke...

 

Having to watch pitchers hit in key spots is criminal.

 

Any time you have a chance to go for the throat and end the game you do it. You don't worry about the next inning, yes the bullpen has been used but in reality none of their arms are falling off yet or even close. How do you LET THE PITCHER BAT.

 

I didn't like the decision, either.

 

...not that there's anything wrong with that

 

Gaudin has pitched well, though. He's pitched 3 scoreless innings.
