Comment on Leo Nunez Sucks by jonnylons

Thanks for your passionate response. Spell check aside, I think you make a fair request. The reasons why Nunez sucks is because he would stay away from using his fastball and instead get cute with his breaking pitches. The other night, however, he was locating his slider in the lower outside corner and using it effectively. Any hitter in the bigs can tatoo a fastball – it is the speed differential that keeps them off balance. But to underscore your point, yes, Nunez has done a better job of mixing up his pitches and changing speeds. That said, he has to rely on his fastball to set up his other pitches while last year, he was doing the opposite. He still looks like a nervous wreck out there and does not exude the confidence you want in a closer like, say, Brian Wilson. I am hardly eating my words. More like waiting to see when he loses it again. I hope I am wrong though and would gladly eat my words. But don’t deny that Nunu was not a part of the 27 blown saves from last year. That is being ignorant.

your an idiot. nunez is good your eating your words now aren’t you. stop trying to act smart by tossing percentages in there where you just divided the number of blown saves by his attempts and then divided the number he blew by the total number blown. you dont know what your talking about! how about elaborating on the types of pitches he struggles with or being more specific with what he needs to do to get on track. either way this guy is good and your ignorant.

Comment on Jeffrey Loria: Blaming Owner Only Gets You So Far by Brandon

Well the marlins were selling tickets before loria came and dumped the players. This guy is scum. He’s already stole from miami. Loria makes a ton of money each year from the marlins. And then pockets it insted of putting it back into the team. He hires his friends and relatives . Insted of pros to run the team. Like his stepston david sampson with no baseball background is now president of baseball opersations. What a joke.

Comment on Nolasco Injured; May Miss Rest of Season by jonnylons

Despite a partially torn ligament, Ricky will start tomorrow. Seems to have been showing some positive signs in practice and drills. Apparently, the tough part will be moving backwards, but that isn’t likely to affect him too much unless he is covering the plate. We’ll see. We need another win against the Braves.

Comment on Cody Ross Waived; Cameron Maybin Era Begins by jonnylons

jonnylons — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 00:51:37 +0000

I agree with your assessment of both players. I want so badly to believe that Maybin is a stud. But compare him to Stanton – there is a clear distinction. Stanton is ready and just has raw ability. Maybin, if he has a tangible trait, would be his speed. So, I agree – if anything we will have to wait a few years. If Maybin can give us solid defense and some scoring speed, we can wait.
