Frustration: Marlins Still 6 1/2 Games Out of Wild Card

The Marlins are not helping their chances of getting the wild card let alone the division title. Yesterday they were beat 10-5 by Atlanta at home. They now sit 6 1/2 games out of the wild card spot. Yesterday's loss is just further evidence that the Braves are the real deal this year and the Marlins are not. As much as it pains us to make that comment, its the truth. The fish just aren't playing well at all, there is no consistency .

The only shining spot continues to be Johnson who has been screwed out of wins left and right this year. His league leading E.R.A. is completely useless because the Marlins can't put together a 5 game win streak, or 4 games for that matter. In the next two weeks or so if the Marlins do not go on a serious win streak we will already know that we are out of the wild card running in mid-august. Let's hope we can pick it back up today, game time is 1:00pm.
