Yankees Sore Losers In Weekend Series With Marlins

June 22, 2009 in Marlins History, Regular Season by jonnylons

Seems that the Marlins taking two from the Yankees is just a bit too much to bear. Joe Girardi and the Yankees officially filed a protest to dispute the outcome of the game on Sunday, FOX reports. Seems Fredi tricked himself with his moves: in the top of the 8th Chris Coghlan was slated to come out of LF for [...]

Anibal Sanchez Is Back; So is De Aza

June 2, 2009 in Injuries, Roster by jonnylons

Anibal Sanchez will get the start tonight against the Brewers as he looks to come back from a right shoulder straight.

Right-Said-Fredi, as I like to call him (not to his face, obviously!), [...]

Marlins Update 3.23.07

March 23, 2007 in Spring Training by jonnylons

The Marlins defeated the Cards yesterday 2-1. The biggest news being LaRussa’s arrest the night before and his subsequent apology. That aside, the Marlins have some promising developments coming out of that win. Dontrelle Willis is going to be the Opening Day starter and he showed why going 6.2 innings of shutout baseball against the World Champs. He struck out [...]

Like most Marlin fans, you might be scratching your head (or wearing a paper bag) over what the Marlins are going to do about their center field needs. Clearly we have to field 9 players – I know some of you, like me, are asking do we really have to play 9 players? Um yeah, we do. So, with that [...]
