I actually had him in three fantasy leagues so I'm happy!

Talk about a kick in the balls. I played an Angels/Padres/Marlins parlay last night, Marlins, who I thought was the lock with Dontrelle throwing, has a crap game. Next day the Marlins' throw a friggin no hitter

[Suffolk Shippers]

Talk about a kick in the balls #2...Red Sox traded Anibel Sanchez and Hanley Ramirez + 2 other yound arms for Josh Beckett and Mike Lowell. Looking like the Marlins may get the best of that one yet.

Big series at home vs Phillies coming up for Marlins.

Going to be tough for them with Philly, SD and LA ahead of them in the wild card. But they are a fun team to watch and root for.

$15 mil total payroll.

Too bad they can't draw at Dolphins Stadium which has to be the worst place in the world to see a baseball game, especially in So Florida.

Announced attendance was 12,000. But that includes season ticket sales. These were probably 3,000 at the game.

That's terrible that so small a crowd witnessed the gem by Sanchez! I hear they cant decide on a place for a new stadium...MLB want it in town but they're looking at Hialeah also. So much potential for the youngest team in Majors!

South Florida doesn't deserve pro sports teams.Most any other city with a team in the Wildcard race would have that place atleast half full.There is no excuse for a town not supporting a team that is playing above .500,and Wild card capable.None.Do you think Milwaukee,or Pittsburgh would act this way if they had a hot team?

The Reds were in the Wild Card up until about a week ago and they had to cut the ticket prices in half and have $1 Hot Dogs to get people out to the Cardinals Series. They are doing the same thing for the San Diego Series next week...

Amazing what the Marlins have accomplished in like 15 years of existence? 4 different players tossing a no hitter. 2 World Series titles. The team gets stripped down to bare bones yet they still find themselves in a realistic chase for the wildcard. I hope they get in this year. This is a very fun team to watch. Its not their fault where they play or how many people they play in front of. This is a great baseball story.

That's ridiculous. Dolphins draw. Heat draws. Panthers do ok. Baseball at Dolphins Stadium is a lousy experience. Period. Rain, heat, humidity make it a lousy place to see a game.

Saying So Florida does not deserve pro sports teams is like saying LA doesn't deserve an NFL team. Oh, wait ....

We don't deserve(or want) a Pro NFL team.You guys in South Florida don't deserve a MLB team.Let me tell ya something.The Halos play in a damn ugly stadium,but people go there to support that team.Go to their site,and look at the photos of the stadium.Put the pointer on various locations.It's ugly.

Baseball teams should not play in football stadiums. It would be like pro tennis tournaments being played on an asphalt surface in the middle of the desert. Makes no sense.

I was at Angels Stadium a couple years ago. It's not much. Especially those boulders out in center field. Those real or Flintstone rocks?

But LA is a comfortable outdoor climate during the summer. Miami is far from it unless you're on the waterfront. April/early May at the ballpark here are ok. Average game time temp during the summer is 89 degrees with 90% humidity and 90% chance of rain. It ain't close to comfortable.

The A's are doing it just fine.If you have a team playing good ball,then that's what should matter.They should have 30k a night to see the Marlins fight for that Wildcard.A man playing for a playoff spot got a no hitter in his own house,and that few of his fans were there?
