Marlins Lose Close Game Again, Fall to Braves 3-2

[Namaste]

If Miller and Maybin can fail then so can Olt/Profar.

I don't think trading Stanton is as big of a no brainer as some people think.

I think it's also possible that season ticket holders go from 5K (lol) to 2K (lofl).

Locking up Stanton is a show of good faith to the remaining fans AND protects against the downside of Olt and Profar doing a Miller/Maybin.

[Beef]

Mainge, common.

It sounds like Beef is saying "hey guys, this is a fun team to watch because we have some nice young talent."

The worst AA team has some nice young talent to watch.

Ya know?

The owner is hiding in a fucking suite. It's that bad right now.

But I said worth looking forward to watching. Forward. Can be interesting at some point. There was discussion about the rebuilding process that pretty much assumed this current rebuild was already a failure.

[Namaste]

I also don't think we'd even be discussing trading Stanton if the Marlins had won 2 of these 1 run games and Stanton had Justin Uptons line through 8 games.

No shit.

I also don't think we'd even be discussing trading Stanton if the Marlins had won 2 of these 1 run games and Stanton had Justin Uptons line through 8 games.

I still would be. I believe others would too because we don't believe he'll be locked up.

[Namaste]

Is the "no shit" thing really necessary?

[Mainge]

Is informing anyone on this message board that prospects can bust really necessary?

[Todd]

Everyone on this site is basically a troll.

FUCK YOU
--------------------

I feel like the team actually has a handful of young folks worth looking forward to watching

Stanton, Brantley, Hechavarria fo sho
--------------------

A lineup of

C Brantly
1B Lomo
2B Hech
SS Profar
3B Olt
LF Yelich
CF Marisnick
RF Ruge

seems possible. At worst, that team is slick as fuck in the field.
--------------------
Plus defenders at 3B, SS, 2B, CF and LF. Possibly RF too.

I think Ruggiano is too old for that lineup.

[HUGG]

Ozuna's a possibility. Or Silverio.

[Ramp]

It's nice we aren't bitching about shitty defense for once (outside of Olivo, I think it's been pretty good, right?)

Those of us wanting to trade Stanton have little to do with his current line. We all know what kind of player he is.

Some of the youngsters look pretty good so far. The issue is extra base hits right now. Certainly like what I see out of Adeinny and Brantly for sure though. Would love to see Skip start getting some looks. He's going to strikeout a bunch but he's got some good pop and could provide a few XBH for the boys.

And it's funny how different things are from a year ago. I was beyond frustrated with the team last year and this year, the W/L doesn't bother me. I just like to see the young guys go out there and give a damn. It's a nice change of pace. Of course I don't want them losing 120 games, but it's nice to see some effort out there. Also if retreads like Slowey keep pitching well, we're gonna have some nice trades to make in July

Also, Jeffrey Loria rules, everyone else drools

First of all, props to nonames on a MGMT reference.

Second, fuck it, I'm on the Free Skipworth bandwagon. No reason he shouldn't at least catch a game and get some starts at 1B. We know what Greg Dobbs brings to the table.

[Todd]

Judging by his size I am guessing whatever he brings to the table is probably fried and has a nice helping of gravy.

[emkayseven]

You're the fucking worst

[Nick]

I rep'd Todd for his comment.

[Todd]

You're the fucking worst

Or I am the best and you are the worst.

[Beef]

First is the worst
