According to the Weather Channel if this game takes place it will be next to a miracle.  And speaking of miracles, the Marlins need to start a long win streak and do it now.

Volstad is Volstad.  He walks too many, gives up too many hits, especially early in the game, but has the mastery to work around it.  The kid is going to be something some day.  But in the meantime, he has to rely on the defense to help out and they have been more than willing to recently.

Kendrick has fallen on tough times recently.  In his last five starts he went 1-3 with a 9.14 ERA, so that means tonight he will do his Cy Young impersonation.  Giving up home runs is nothing new to Kendrick, in fact he has given up 20 of them this season.  The weird thing is he is better at home than on the road.  His home ERA is 3.69 as opposed to his road ERA of 6.29.  Go figure.

Ichthyomancy is ready to try it again.  Best of Luck to You!

Never had problems

never had problems with old FFox, or the new 3.0.1 on my Mac.

Build a stadium downtown and I'll buy season tickets

Eat it, Braman!

Marlins stadium declared public purpose:

Circuit Court Judge Jeri Beth Cohen ruled Tuesday that there are no grounds to overturn the judgment of the Miami-Dade County Commission that the stadium is a public purpose.

Cohen says the law is clear. She says the same determination was made 21 years ago when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers negotiated a new stadium with Hillsborough County.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think that was the biggest hurdle. Cohen still has to decide if the money legally can be spent on the stadium, but I think that’s a lot more deferential standard.

Wow,

John Baker’s hitting second? Now that’s unusual. Baker-Mania is running wild!

Jacobs is on fire!

Naturally, it comes when the team is out of the pennant race.

Why is Eulogio on the roster?

i don’t think he has ever had an outing where he hasn’t given up a run
