“Thrilling Comeback: Nationals Stun Marlins in Nail-Biting Opener!”
The Marlins are a team that everyone expects to fail this year. I suppose that isn’t much of a surprise considering the team has invested basically nothing in the team, trades away young talent for seemingly no reason, and they consistently lack any real desire to field a winning team. It is almost as if the owners are just using the Marlins as a paycheck or money laundering scheme. However, things aren’t terrible at the moment in Miami. The team is 6-6 for the season and they are 4-3 at home. Are they going to win the division? Almost certainly not. Will they make the playoffs, probably not. But, oddly enough, being .500 after 12 games really isn’t that bad for them. Today they send out Cal Quantrill to the mound. I have to assume they got Quantrill with the intention of dealing him later. However with a 1-1 record, 6.00 ERA, and a 1.44 WHIP, Quantrill will need to improve those numbers to get some value. To be fair to Quantrill, his first start was brutal with four innings allowing six earned runs, but his second start was nice, going five innings and allowing no earned runs. ÂÂ
