The Marlins are going for win number two in the four-game set.

Volstad's first win in the majors came against Colorado in two-innings of relief at Coors Field.  He is a sinker ball pitcher and does require some help from his friends, who, up to this point, have been happy to pitch in.

Jimenez throws hard.  Which isn't bad news, but it may take the Fish one time through the order to get the timing down.  You would have to go back to June to find the last time he didn't have a quality start.  Jimenez is a sinker, curve, fast ball pitcher and much like all the Rockies pitchers, he is on a roll.

Ichthyomancy is pretending like it is ready.  Best of Luck to You!

so how late can you change the attendance, anyway?

if it’s okay in the the top of the 6th, then i’ll change to 15,030. if not, just ignore me.

whew...

I’m glad it doesn’t count, because my first pick was a whole lot closer.

thanks for the info.

Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; but if a thing is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.

Holy cow!!

What a catch by Willingham, flipping over the bullpen gate. That’ll be a Web Gem!

by Fishcrazy on Aug 1, 2008 8:24 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Jacobs goes after two pitches in teh dirt

then misses one right down the middle… why didn’t we trade him for molina again?

craig – you don’t want to be watching this…

by jrsyeagle on Aug 1, 2008 8:51 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

and how about Hanley?

two errors, no hits, just struck out with the bases loaded.

talk about a buzzkill.

by Fishcrazy on Aug 1, 2008 9:00 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

uh...nothing...

that certainly doesn’t relate to anything we’re seeing on TV. I would just ignore it…maybe it was part of some hypothetical banter or something.

Thanks!

I will just ignore.
