8/3 Marlins @ Nationals

[Erick]

I suppose that's a possibility.

How many wins do you see this team getting the rest of the year?

[dim]

Gorkys Hernandez is just as awful a hitter as almost everybody expected him to be...

Yeah yeah, small sample size.

I have no clue! I have no idea how anyone could feel remotely confident putting a number on that.

I feel moderately confident that they will not put up a stretch that would rank with the 1962 Mets and company, though.
--------------------
For shits and giggles:

JJ probably has 12 starts remaining (including tonight), assuming health, so let's say they go 6-6 in them.
Buehrle probably has 11 starts left. Let's say 5-6.
Nolasco probably has 11 starts left. Let's say 4-7.

That leaves 22 starts for the young guys/other a-holes. Even if the team wins at a 62 Mets pace in their starts, they'll win 5-6 of them.

So let's say 21-35 the remainder of the way?

How about an estimation? 20-25?

We basically agree.

[HUGG]

We haven't had a starter go more than 7 innings since July 5

[Erick]

Jose Reyes is fun.
--------------------
Jose Reyes might be hurt though?

[Bobbob1313]

This guy out there on the mound looks pretty good for a No. 3 starter.

[HUGG]

bobbob, I think you're doing a thing

[Bobbob1313]

I'm doing such a thing. I hate everyone.

[HUGG]

First time a Marlins SP has gone 8 innings since May 7.

Last time JJ went 8 innings, 8/18/10

[Erick]

That was a really awkward call by Rich Waltz...

[TheMendozaLine]

Cursed

[Bobbob1313]

I like that Boner grabbed his peener right when the camera was focused on his midsection.

[Erick]

This is probably a stupid thing to say at this time, but how is that an earned run?

[Bobbob1313]

No error.
--------------------
Nope, that's not it.
--------------------
I have no idea, then.
