People associate their crappy payroll with garbage but the truth is that we have good looking team with young players. Being the fact that they are young, it is really unpredictable what they might do and what their stats would look like but Hanley is going to give you a .300 + BA and homerun's and steals. Dan Uggla is going to give you plenty of home runs and so is Mike Jacobs. Toss in a healthy Jeremy Hermida batting for .285+ and some homeruns and we are looking pretty good. Let's not forget about Josh Willingham at LF. He's got pop and will hit for about .260. Think about it, we will be close to the top of the league in homeruns. Yeah we will strikeout A LOT but the runs will definitely come. If our young starting pitchers produce this year, we are all in for a treat. Let me remind you that the Marlins win World Series with good young arms and defense. It's worked for us twice. Although to your defense, our World Series year is technically next year (Andrew Miller, Chris Volstad, Gabby Hernandez, Scott Olsen, and Josh Johnson) <---- WOW. but I wouldn't mind them pushing it one year early. <em>Young Online Millionaire's last blog post..<a href='http://youngonlinemillionaire.com/archives/30' rel="nofollow">Day 14-15: 30 Days to Blogging Success</a></em> Hey Rudy, not meaning to sound misinformed but the Marlins don’t have a bad team.

I'm not completely against sinker ball pitchers. I think Derek Lowe and CM Wang have great back of order value. Carmona is a good 2nd or 3rd pitcher. If you're not going to get K's, you better have a high GB %. But throw in rookie AND that his team (sorry) isn't very good, I don't even give him consideration for mixed league FLB. I'd consider him for Razzball though! Let's just hope Olsen gets back on track and Josh Johnson returns from his hysterectomy soon...

If he shows up and gives you a 3.00 ERA with a decent WHIP you wouldn't want him on your team just because he doesn't strikeout 10 a night? If his 1 ip was any sign of what is to come, sign me up. Also @ Grey... he's on the Marlins? What's that suppose to mean? The Fish just finished sweeping the Nats and are in first place in the East. Right now they are playing good ball. Plus, I got season tickets so back off :P You know who's making the playoffs this year? The Marlins. That's right I said it. Ill be back at the end of the year to brag about my prediction. Better hope it's not a wild card spot or you can bet on who's winning the World Series :P <em>Young Online Millionaire's last blog post..<a href='http://youngonlinemillionaire.com/archives/30' rel="nofollow">Day 14-15: 30 Days to Blogging Success</a></em> I didn’t know it was all about the K’s Rudy.

Bleh. This guy has three starts above A ball and has no K potential (78Ks in 135 IP).

I mean he stats are decent but his K ratio in the minors was not that great and I don't think he has a great fastball for a guy his size. You guys sure about Badenhop?

I think I came closer to hitting some balls than Krispie did in one AB. If they can combine for 350+ Ks, they deserve a name like the Bash Brothers. Maybe the Windmill Brothers? The K Whiffey Juniors? The DiamondHacks? I just saw a day game in Arizona yesterday. I think I came closer to hitting some balls than Krispie did in one AB.
