good god todays lineup after the 3 spot is pretty horrendous. That's about as bad as it can get on a big league roster

[fish16]

saw rogers went on the IL and was crushed, but luckily its just because of reaction to 2nd covid vaccine which he timed for in between starts. thank god.

[fish16]

terrific slide to get in there by jazz. Thought he was gonna be out based on the momentum enciarte had and how shallow that ball was.

Love that Jazz speed.

[fish16]

if thompson can just get us through 4 with this lead or tied take it and run

[Nick]

Man Dickerson sucks.

[Nick]

Dodged a literal bullet there.

[fish16]

holy shit acuna absolutely annihilated that ball. how did diaz even see that let alone catch it. Acuna reminds me of Ryan Howard back in his prime with the Phillies in the sense that I have no confidence in the marlins pitchers to not allow an absolute rocket somewhere on the field.

did duvall and dickerson get hammered before the game together?

[Nick]

Marte is the dude.

[fish16]

great throw by starlin but first glance it looked like the finger got in right before the tag. hopefully it stands. Marte is an absolute star.

Edit- was wrong, he clearly was just out before getting the hand in there.

[fish16]

doesnt always lead to us shelling him but fried never really looks great against us and the lineup never really looks lost

[Nick]

That could’ve easily been a broken hand.

[Nick]

King of the weak ground ball.

am i missing something or is there no aspect of baseball that Dickerson is good at? Doesnt hit for any kind of special average, limited power, limited speed, he's been awful in the field for us and his arm isn't all that impressive. What happened to him? It's his business but the people around the team keep saying he's been going through some sort of off the field family issues since he got here. Would be interested to see what that could possibly be to make him go from the player he was before to what he has been here.
