The Ultimate Mother’s Day Surprise: What This Total Play Reveals Will Leave You Speechless
The Marlins aren’t exactly a juggernaut team, but up until recently, they were at least pretty competitive. They are now sitting at 15-23 for the season which is no longer what I would consider a competitive record. I’ve mentioned this before but even if they are competitive, they are more likely to trade away any useful body on their roster. The franchise is just a disgrace and it is rather frustrating watching them “build” a team only to dismantle it, often times without giving them any real chance to compete. They are essentially a money laundering franchise. Anyway, one player that was useful – at least a couple of years ago – is today’s starter, Sandy Alcantara. Alcantara is 2-4 with an 8.42 ERA and a 1.61 WHIP. He missed an entire season of baseball so I can’t really fault the guy, but this is pretty ugly. He has allowed at least four earned runs in four of his last five outings, and has given up five home runs in the same stretch. There are two starts this season where he has lasted fewer than three innings. Two of his worst outings were against the best team in baseball (the Dodgers) so I guess we can be a bit lenient, but it hasn’t been pretty. Alcantara has been good against the Sox in limited exposure, allowing just three hits in 17 at-bats.
