  1. Maybe, maybe not. Either way, Tapia was the wrong move. Maybe it wouldn’t have mattered… we’ll never know
  2. Age is not on his side
  3. He shouldn’t have been in the game. You have a defense-first outfielder on the bench, JBJ. The team had a 7 run lead. Merrifield got hit and Schneider decided to take him out. Fine. But you gotta go JBJ there, not Tapia. JBJ has a better glove than Tapia, that is 100% established. You don’t need Tapia’s slightly better bat in there when your team is up by 7 runs.
  4. Hell f***ing no. Glad you aren’t GM
  5. I felt comfortable going into game 3 with Stripling vs Gilbert. Yesterday’s game was extremely mismanaged, to the point it now sits as one of the greatest comeback wins in postseason history. Glad Montoyo is gone. Schneider was pretty good all year but for some reason suffered a number of brain farts last night. Mayza vs Santana and Tapia as defensive replacement over Bradley are 100% inexcusable. Those moves should never happen in a postseason game.
  6. Depends on cost and if we want another 30+ player on the team for several years. Probably a better idea to go after someone younger or a cheaper CF with a lesser bat
  7. Most valuable players this season? Manoah, Gausman, Romano, Kirk Most improved player? Kirk, Manoah, Stripling Biggest dissappoint of the season? Berrios and Pearson. Kikuchi too perhaps. How do you rate the front office? Shapiro - A Love his renovation plans. Beer at the dome was much improved this season. The food needs to be better. Atkins - C No shrewd moves this year. No impact players at the deadline. Gausman signing looks good, Berrios extension and Kikuchi signing look bad. Tapia got way too much playtime. How do you rate the Coaching Staff? Who should stay who should go? They can all stay for 1 more year IMO. GAPS Analysis. What were we missing the most this year? A shutdown bullpen guy to put out fires. Think Andrew Miller, Wade Davis, etc. Overall team culture fun group but young and unfocused. They have strong chemistry but need to work on the fundamentals.
  8. Yea. Schneider was asleep at the wheel at that point I think.
  9. Grisham could be nice. For Kirk though?? Idk about that. Maybe if we make it a bigger trade and they send an arm our way.
  10. Lol dude that comment was from before game 2. Scherzer had just imploded and they lost to the Padres 7-1 at home. Sure they likely feel better after last night’s game, but if they lose today it will be a tough offseason for their fans.
  11. What a tool lol. Apparently the dude is just chilling in Miami
  12. Not to mention the magic/team of destiny stuff they clearly have going on this year. 13 walkoff wins?? They are very clutch
  13. I’d say Gausman did pretty well. Box score looks bad but he probably could have gotten out of that inning with only 1 ER. And the offense scored 9 runs. That should be more than enough to win a ballgame.
  14. Agree here. Need a young JBJ type player.
  15. Tapia never should have been in the game in the first place. He was replacing Merrifield even though we were up by 7. Made no f***ing sense
  16. Jansen closed 3 games in a row against the Mets to take the division. Almost as if good/experienced relievers are important.
  17. Actually it was Arash lol. Of course it was f***ing Arash
  18. Mike Wilner on the radio: “I think the most pressing need is a couple more bats, they need more guys with an ops of at least .800” Unreal lol. How does this guy still work in sports.
  19. Yeah Shapiro is great, we should hold onto him as long as possible. Atkins is easily replaceable IMO. Maybe give him one more year but I wouldn’t be mad to see him gone. It will be interesting to see what decision they make with Schneider too. I think if Schneids is fired then clearly he went off the book in that wildcard game.
  20. How many “learning moments” do these guys need before they actually… learn? This team has a lot of stupid players on it, and we can’t really use the young/inexperienced excuse anymore. Bo and Vlad only have a couple years left before Free agency FFS
  21. Ok but do you acknowledge that 3 of those runs were scored on an extremely lucky hit? Could have been 9-7
  22. Im almost certain Miami will still be bottom 10 in attendance even when they are competing. Florida is just a s***** state for MLB. The world baseball classic is the craziest i’ve ever seen Marlins park.
  23. Easiest ways to improve run prevention: 1. Push Springer to RF/LF and find a plus CF (Nimmo?) 2. Move Bo to 2nd 3. Get Berrios and Kikuchi to see a sports psychologist
  24. Yeah I agree. Why roster a defense-first OF if you aren’t gonna bring him into the game when you have a 7 run lead. And Springer probably should have been out after his AB in the 6th. (Assuming the Mariners don’t score 4 off that Santana situation) Dude was clearly hurting.
