So how many defensive mistakes are we going to need from Miami to get back in the game.  3 to 4

[yourout]

Got some help from the umpire there.

Miz goes 4 yanked. Q getting smacked. Gets 5 at least 

Yanking Miz made sense since we're being extremely careful with him. Quintana just didn't look too good today.

This was somewhat predictable but certainly disappointing. 

A team playing over its skis getting humbled & reminded that it needs to bring its “A game” everyday or it will get pounded by its opponent.

Embarrassing effort all around. And it would be much worse if not for Stowers defensive miscue that led to two gift runs last inning. 

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Giving up runs after the offense gets a lead twice tonight isn’t ideal. Going to need the long relief and some comeback offense.

Might take 10 to win this one. 

Marlins got it going with the bats.

*** is wrong with Yelich lately?  Whiffs and roll-overs almost every time up. He looks like he did to start the year. 

[willie key]

Well if we are going to lose all these games maybe let’s get those launch angle rankings up

 

[edfunderburk]

I prefer the young guys … Chad Patrick had very few poor outings. Logan Henderson was stellar in his four starts. Tobias Myers is healthy & able to start. I’m not as fond of Carlos Rodriguez.

As for the veterans … Brandon Woodruff has been excellent - hope he continues to go six & stay healthy. Nestor Cortes had one horrid start & one excellent start. I don’t trust him to be healthy to the end of the season. Jose Quintana is up & down but hasn’t been crisp in several starts recently. 

[TURBO]

BA with yet another over-reaction on Chourio's routine flyball.

If he called more games here, he'd realize which balls were flyballs off the bat, and which ones were homers.

 

[kevinisaname]

That kind of felt like the inning we needed to tie it with Jackson being the only one to homer recently. I'm not feeling good about this game. I hope I'm wrong, though!

[Bulldogboy]

I like the Marlins lineup better imo.

We get 4 more at bats, we can do it.

But we also gotta hold 'em, which we don't as they hit a homer as I type this.

[Bulldogboy]

Anderson has been good but his arm is going to fall off.

[yourout]

It's almost like the Marlins know what pitch is coming.

Good night.

That'll do it. No way this offense right now is coming back. Watch Yelich's weak ass AB coming in the bottom half of this inning.

over-use.

THC Chicken Lol kidding.

[kevinisaname]

I feel like we've gone to our two most overused pitchers in the last couple of games. I don't know if Anderson is or not, but he seems to be in there all the time.

Like i said. He's overused also. Murphy has killed the pen.
