Hotlanta, a Road Trip with the Marlins 😠

Pheww, what a difference a week makes sometimes in Major League Baseball. The Marlins found this out firsthand, after riding so much momentum since late June (a complete 180 of the first 3 months to the 2025 Season), finishing off a Sweep of the New York Yankees at home which saw the Club finally reach .500. The Fightn' Fish then dropped a Series to the Houston Astros in Miami, though at the very least capturing the finale to secure yet another Winning home stand. Next came a 5 Game Series at the Atlanta Braves, with a Double-Header on Saturday thanks to a postponed Game all the way back in early April. If you thought Atlanta's Roster was weak then, try going into this weekend Series against the Fish without Austin Riley, Ronald Acu ñ a (who was out in April as well), not having to face Spencer Strider. You would think the Marlins would be in prime position to continue to make up ground in the Wild Card race against the 47-66 Braves. Especially seeing as the New York Mets got s...

Prospect list (contd)

  What a sportserrific summer it has been.   The Florida Panthers Won back to back Stanley Cups!! How about that! Congratulations Florida!!! The Panthers faced off against the Edmonton Oilers for the 2nd consecutive year, taking the Title home in 6 Games this time around. '25 also marked the 3rd consecutive Stanley Cup Finals appearance for the home Team. Speaking of goals, Toluca FC dethroned Club America in Liga MX, after las Aguilas had won the previous 3 Mexican Football Titles. The CONCACAF Gold Cup wrapped up with Mexico defeating Team USA 2-1 to take home the prize. Also having taken place in the United States, the new imagined Clubs World Cup saw Chelsea come out victorious over PSG. Preceding these events, Memorial Day came and went. It always served as a day in Major League Baseball when things certainly begin to spice up regarding   the Standings, and yes, the red hottt Marlins have been taking a look at those Wild Card Standings since the end of June. June is ...

Lista (rapida) de Prospectos

Image
  Que días llenos de deportes nos encontramos en el calendario. Las Panteras de Florida van a su tercera Final de Conferencia consecutiva. En la NBA, igual solo quedan 4 Equipos (Indiana/Nueva York .. Minnesota/Oklahoma). Las últimas dos semanas hubo vastante Box (con las presentaciones de la promoción Top-Rank, robándose y rescatando el show). Hasta las poderosas Aguilas de la América buscan su CUARTO TÍTULO MEXICANO CONSECUTIVO. Nuestros Marlins hoy comienzan otra Serie contra los Cachorros de Chicago, después de ganarles una Serie a Tampa éste pasado fin de semana por primera vez desde 2018! Se a visto talento joven debutar en el sur de la Florida durante ya casi 2 meces de Temorada. Catchers Liam Hicks y Agustín Ramirez han comenzado sus Carreras bastante bien.  Nos dejo pensando, cuales Peloteros dentro de la Organización de los Marlins podrían tal vez dubutar pronto al igual, y quiénes pondríamos en una lista de "Top Prospectos". 1.Thomas White The last time Son Los Mar...

Flamingos?!

  With the sports and entertainment world still flabbergasted (and not in the good kind of way when it comes to wrestling) with WrestleMania 41. We could touch a little bit on how Triple-H can't hold a candle to his father in law as head of creative & the WWE. Or how somebody like the Rock likes to be incorporated in everything, yet decides to not be involved with absolutely anything Professional Wrestling anymore. Or even how a company like TKO, whose sole priority seems to be how much money each particular International Country is willing to pay them to go there, than it ever was putting on any sort of grand spectacle during their biggest show of the year.  We could touch on all that, but no, no, let's instead delve into myriad sports around the State. You got the Florida Panthers, who when their not too busy kissing Donald Trump's ass in the White House during the Regular Season, are instead kicking some ass of their own in the Playoffs. Holding a 2-0 lead on the Tam...

Mania

  It's finally! arrived. With 'finally' truly needing an exclamation point beside it, seeing as it's been almost 2 whole months since the last WWE PPV event. In what feels like the longest build to a WrestleMania ever. The ingredients for Mania Season were highlighted by John Cena's heel turn, after over 20 years as a face. You had Charlotte Flair make a triumphant return at the Royal Rumble, setting up her Title Match with Tiffany Stratton. CM Punk headlining Night 1. What should have been the most captivating time of the year however, fell short of expectations. WWE spent what felt like a solid month in Europe, with many a star missing throughout this entire WrestleMania Season. The leadup to the biggest show of the year, which captivates even the most casual of wrestling fan, seemed lackluster. The Rock & some Rapper helped facilitate Cena's shocking turn, then never returned to WWE programming, despite both billed for this weekend. All with the thought, ...

Play around .500 ball on the road, take care of business at home. Through Atlanta & New York for what became an abbreviated 5 game road-trip, the Marlins come back to South Florida 2-3 against the Braves & Mets, no easy task given the Fish's recent history in both Cities. They'll now face another N.L East opponent in the Washington Nationals for a 3 Game weekend Set over at the Depot, where the Marlins had an initial winning Opening homestand. Speaking of the N.L East, both the Philadelphia Phillies & Nats took a Series each from the Defending Chump L.A Dodgers over the last 6 days. A road-trip for Los Angles which opened a lot of eyes off the field towards a Ballclub based out of California. Don't know if ironic or moronic would best describe the picture above. Only seeing as you have one of the Nation's most famous immigrants (whether in or out of Sports) alongside the Country's President, whose campaigns have centered around degrading, immigrants. Eve...

Payback's a Buc

Image
Oh how the turn tables. Same opponent, same time of the year, same venue. Different results. March 28, of 2024 saw the Marlins commence a new Season by facing the Pittsburgh Pirates for a 4 Game Series in Miami. The Buccos would pick up a come from behind Win on Opening Day in Extra Innings, and cap a 4 Game Road Sweep in the finale at the Fish's expense by erasing a 5-0 deficit.   March 27, of 2025 marked this year's Opener, and it was the Marlins whom trailed Paul Skenes & the Pirates 4-1 more than half way through the Contest, only to stage their own Opening Day Comeback with a dramatic Walk-Off in the bottom of the 9th. Following more 9th Inning drama in Game 2, the Fish would again pull out late inning comebacks on both Saturday and Sunday to take 3 out of 4 from the Bucs. We mentioned this Marlins Team played a lot better baseball in the 2nd Half of last Season. They definitely showed grit during what was a thrilling Opening Series in South Florida. Today, the Fish o...

EL OPENING DAY

Image
  As the Marlins put the finishing touches on their 26 man Roster for tomorrow, there was another Opening Day eve Transaction for the Fish. Remember, last year Jon Berti was Traded to the Yankees, while Burch Smith was acquired from the Rays a day before the Opener. Today Peter Bendix & Staff acquired Tyler Phillips, a Right-Handed Pitcher from the Phillies. Phillips has put up some really rough numbers in the Minors for Philadelphia since 2021 (281 combined Innings), Pitching to a 5.15 ERA through all levels of MiLB. It's worth mentioning the New Jersey native missed all of 2022 with Shoulder surgery. Phillips did reach the Majors in 2024, appearing in 8 Games/7 Starts for the Phillies, however tallied a 6.87 ERA. The numbers continued to plummet this Spring, as Phillips had a 7.19 Grapefruit League ERA. Bendix & Co. must obviously see something in the analytics, as the former Phils' Prospect will claim an Opening Day Roster spot, in view of the fact  Phillips is out ...
