Go sit in timeout with Jerry, the other hater. He hates on Smith you on Kelly and they were both super. 😀 Lol well Kelly did just give up 120+mph line drive that was caught, but you take what you can get lol. I had no idea he’d come out again for the 9th. I’m not responsible for anything he does.

Running into outs and no scoring for a Sale start? Is this 2017?

Unfortunately, little offense doesn't leave any room for the bullpen to make mistakes.

Lol more line drive outs, a walk, and a warning track fly ball out on a hanging curveball. Still breathing here lol.

2 easy outs on 5 pitches. What the bleep offense. This is the Marlins.

Come on, the at bats in the ninth and here in the tenth have been poorly executed.

Cora should have brought in Kimbrel in the 9th to pitch against the middle of the order. I'm glad that Kelly did the job, though.

So through these first few games, anyone think the batters are being over aggressive? I get that they're "hunting" good pitches but it seems to be like they're going up there to swing and not necessarily a plan of attack to me.

It’s hard to know what they are each thinking, but in general I’m in favor of changing the general approach and the formerly heavy reliance on “patience “ at the plate.

Some of the first pitch or early swings aren't exactly on the best of pitches.

It could be that the philosophical change is having a negative effect, but it seems to me that the more reasonable answer is this that this just may not be that deep a lineup. I hate saying that and the season will bear it out, but until it changes, you can't just assume any progression from last year.

They (Benny,Martinez mostly) just aren’t swinging at good pitches. I think getting back to Fenway instead of these dead stadiums will bring some energy to the lineup. I’m sure being in Florida for so long isn’t helping either.

Not one pitch in the zone. He will hit, but it is difficult to watch right now.
