- Well Andrew Miller is ready for the game, boy with all those preparations he had made I'm sure Marlins are gonna win the game.
- There is nothing finer than seeing the Marlins end the Mets season again! Punks!!
- Even though most franchises would view missing the playoffs as a failure...as a long time Marlins fan, I'm glad to see my team finish competitive and above .500, you always need a building...

because they don't have a reliable guy to come into the game in the 8th or
9th to shut the door on the opposition.
All that being said, I think Uggla, Cantu, and Jacobs are more important
pieces. Well, Uggla and Cantu for sure.
