    Too many mistakes. Hech killed us today. That error leading to the first run was a routine play and Eovaldi was rolling. Then he couldn't get down a bunt in a key situation.

    It's frustrating to see all this little things causing us to lose. The youth of the team is definitely showing. Too many errors. Too many missed opportunities to bring in runs. Too many squeaky reliever appearances. The one thing that's been consistently awesome is the starting pitching.

    This is basically a .400-.500 team: good enough to compete, but not good enough to win games against elite teams because they take advantage of our mistakes.

      Also Salty has a huge hole in his swing right now.
      Yeah, the defense has been pretty bad, as well.

      That's a huge difference.

        I mean a team that falls between those numbers, hence "-"

        78 Ks in the series between the two teams is most ever in a Marlins 3-game series

          Yeah but my point is that that's too wide of a range to know what you're saying.

          .500 is an average team while .400 is last year's Minnesota Twins bad.

            Anybody know why Mike Dunn stayed in the game to pitch to Dan Uggla with 2 outs and a man on 1st?

            As far as I know, the Braves had no lefties left on their bench and Ramos was ready in the bullpen.

            And if there was any concern that Red would "waste" Ramos to get one out... with the pitchers spot due up 4th, Red has shown he will double switch McGehee out of the lineup.

            Not that big of a deal, but it seemed like an odd decision at the time.

              Red has also shown he shouldn't be a big league manager.

                To be fair, Dan Uggla has become a terrible hitter so wasting a reliever just to pitch to him is probably not a great move.

                  Yeah, it's literally saying we're somewhere between a 65-81 win team

                  That's quite a margin

                    Ok, you're right. To be more precise, lets say a team that finishes plus or minus 4 around 72 wins
