I'm not sure what to say....you do know that they got Mike Lowell too right?
The guy that hit .324 with 21 HR's and 120 rbi's while finishing 5th in the MVP voting in the regular season and won the World Series MVP last year. Beckett has been 36-18 for them the las 2 years, 20-7 last year while winning the ALCS MVP and finishing 2nd in the Cy Young voting.

Martin threw out Hanley twice tonight (trying to steal 2nd.) I'd say the 1st place for the fish is gunna be temporary.I mean,look who ya had to throw at us tonite in the 9th.That Gregg guy that the Angels didn't want.Can't even fool 40 year old Kent.Dodgers are very poor on the road.If you can't take them easily,then ya got some problems with pitching(trust me,dat be it..we can't hit unless you make mistakes.)

I harbor no illusions. Marlins are a $20 Mil payroll team. If they can stay .500 for a couple more months it will be a miracle. Once Aug comes and Dolphins start camp, no one will care anyway. Our "ace" G. Olsen goes tomrrow.

If he pitches decently,then we will lay down.

You are right that Lowell came through for them but at the time he was actually a salary dump by the Marlins who forced the Sox to take on his full salary in order to get Beckett. Funny how it works out a good trade when the guy they had to take on to get the deal done works out.

The title of this thread made me think that Alex Rodriguez, Manny Ramirez, Albert Pujols, Vladamir Guerrero, and Ichiro Suzuki had all retired.

He was good last year. Looks awful this year.
