Edwin Rodriguez Right Man For the Job

December 8, 2010 in Featured, Spotlight by jonnylons

Edwin Rodriguez is the right man to navigate the Marlins for this upcoming season. Flying under the radar, the expectations outside of the Marlins front office and clubhouse may not be high. This team is going to have a strong sense of self and a vision that will guide them to success this upcoming season. Let’s face it, no one [...]

The Future of the Fish: 2011 A Look Ahead

November 17, 2010 in Featured, Offseason, Spotlight, Trades by jonnylons

So now that the dust is settling on the Dan Uggla trade, we’ve come to learn two basic things: The Marlins did make a very fair offer to Uggla and his representatives. They opted to take their chances elsewhere, looking to get a 5 year deal at around $70+M. Marlins offered 4 years at $48M. Kind of reminds one of [...]

Nyjer Morgan is a Douche: Fallout From Roid Rage

September 3, 2010 in Featured, Regular Season, Spotlight by jonnylons

Clearly, the guy is not using steroids but also it is clear the guy is off his meds. I didn’t cover the “brawl” because, well, everyone else did. No reason to jump into the muck and the mire. Besides, as noted elsewhere, Nyjer Morgan has a recent history of problems. He is showing off, trying to get attention. No need [...]

Leo Nunez Sucks

August 29, 2010 in Featured, Spotlight by jonnylons

No way of getting around it, Leo Nunez just plain sucks. Sure, the kid is young, has a decent fastball and 29 saves. Problem is, he is no where near a consistent closer and every save opportunity he gets is a thrill ride – and not a fun one where you get off buzzin’ but instead the kind where you [...]

Who is Alex Sanabia?

August 27, 2010 in Featured, Players, Spotlight by jonnylons

The kid can pitch. Chances are, you don’t even know where he came from, or who he is. Drafted in the 32nd round out of high school back in 2006, Sanabia has quietly worked his way into a spot on the parent club and he hasn’t looked back. Facing a tough Mets lineup, he was able to cobble together 6 [...]

No Laughing Matter: Marlins Looking Listless

August 17, 2010 in Featured, Regular Season, Spotlight by jonnylons

So how do you respond after winning 4 games in a row? You lose 4 in a row. This team is just not ready to make a play for anything this season. The staff has been overturned, the roster churned, and now, the team seems to be flat. It isn’t like they don’t have exciting young players – Mike Stanton, [...]

Mike Stanton Doesn’t Like Senor Beisbol

August 11, 2010 in Featured, Spotlight by jonnylons

You may never see such deep-seeded hatred ever but watch Mike Stanton play baseball and you’ll get it. This kid can flat out hit. Monster shots and total bombs all over the field. The torque he generates in his swing is enough to bottle and use at the CERN laboratory in Geneva. But, there is a story to it. When [...]
