Kevin Gregg won’t be available tonight because he has a sore right knee. Now, I know what you are thinking and so am I – perfect timing, right? Well, now who closes…Lindstrom or Nelson?

This is a tough question for any fan to ask of his favorite team – are we contenders or pretenders? Time to honestly evaluate the question that is the Marlins 2008 season.

Gregg will now earn $575,000 this season instead of the $700,000 he was seeking in arbitration. The Marlins acquired Gregg from the Angels for Chris Resop, and will look [...]

July 5, 2008 in Bullpen, Commentary by jonnylons
Sorry, Fredi, I don’t buy it. And if you really mean what you say, then the Marlins are in deep trouble. Kevin Gregg is not in any danger of losing his closing job? Really? The Marlins are choking.
