Let’s go with Wild Card today. Aren’t those Florida Marlins just making an absolute mockery of everyone in baseball?
What’s their payroll, 40 k or so? Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if I make more money than some of the players on
They were magical back in 2003 when they won the World Series after posting a 19-29 record thru May 22, when they dropped their seventh-straight game.
This year’s Marlins were 12-31 on May 22, following a win that snapped a seven-game losing streak.
As of this writing, they’re 2 games behind San Diego in the hunt for the NL Wild Card, they’re rocking a $15 million payroll, Anibal Sanchez only gave up four hits last night (which is a nice way to follow up a no-no), and this team is battling.
They’re pretty fun to watch (much like the Juan Pierre-led 2003 edition), and come on, outside of New York City, who wouldn’t love to see the $15 million Marlins knock off some big payrolls en route to a spectacular October?
Reminders from the Marlins: the ball is round, and the games are not played on paper.
As an aside, Shawne Merriman really didn’t decapitate anyone last night? Not even close? Consider this corner disappointed.
