I swear whenever Price gets ahead 0-2 in the count he allows a hit.

I'd move HRam while the stock is high No one would want a platoon hitter who can't field.

They've got a big lead, so it's not so concerning for this game, but David Price isn't fooling anyone.

How can we have gotten into the 7th inning without comment on Arizona's uniforms? Worst ever?

It wasn't a gem by any means, but Price got the job done nonetheless.

Abad, on the other hand, has been terrible. He has allowed a run in three of his five outings.

Abad has been a wreck thus far.

I like the font of the word "Arizona" on the regular road uniforms with the black lettering with the white and red trim. The coloring of the uniform is obviously too dark and the scales thing is dumb but the base uniform has a cool look. The coloring on these alternates is really awful though.

Tommy Layne MLB career: 122.2 IP, 3.30 ERA, 3.38 FIP, 3.83 xFIP vs RHH: .358 wOBA against vs LHH: .241 wOBA against Fernando Abad MLB career: 264.0 IP, 3.65 ERA, 4.29 FIP, 4.27 xFIP vs RHH: .324 wOBA against vs LHH: .302 wOBA against So I guess Abad is slightly better vs RHH than Layne and has a longer track record, but Layne seems to be the better LOOGY. I liked the move initially since it seemed low cost, but trading Layne and Light for what seems like at best a sideways move seems a little silly. Not that I think Pat Light is anything special either. Unless they saw something in Abad's batted ball profile.

Why was Elias warming up in the ninth?

here's the thing....and i have been drinking tonight....i didn't see the game and am scouting the line....David Price has some decisions to make. He is not the same pitcher...it's foolish to think he will be....he's gonna have to do some evaulation to decide what kind of great pitcher he is going to be going forward. Because he is a great pitcher....you don't get to where he is being average. He will have to change something in his preperartion/methadology to be that good. I'll go on record...this was never anything but a great signing. He is one of the 5 best pitchers going into this year. He will be great for us.

I think people will feel the same way about the current Marlins uniforms, which are equal parts garish and perfect. Other than Arizona, the state of uniforms around the league is pretty strong.

I really wish Hanley would focus on becoming a good hitter again. If he took something off his swing and focused on hitting .320, he'd probably hit 35 home runs anyway. It's like his approach is to hit the ball 450 feet when half of his at bats are at fenway park. Hall of fame talent, super strange person.

Not that I think Pat Light is anything special either. Unless they saw something in Abad's batted ball profile. By using MLB career stats you allow Layne to start at age 27 but include bad mlb stats for Abad at 24, 25, 26, right? Does that help? Weren't all the stories about how he was pitching better this year?
