A little bit, but moreso because they put that reminder up on the screen every 5 pitches. Joe Buck and McCarver are horrible too.

Oh good, now they've added the permanent reminder in the corner of the screen.

B Inge hits a HR to left seconds after McCarver doesn't have any power and isn't able to pull the ball.

Bring back Tito.

How bout that he's addicted to painkillers and is going through a divorce and let his team drink in the clubhouse BS smear campaign from the Red Sox?

McCarver is the best.

Kinda like the Portland Trailblazers.

I also saw something that said Jack McKeon used to lock the door to the Marlins clubhouse when Beckett wasn't pitching to keep him from going back and eating fried chicken, drinking beer, and playing video games.

That did make me lol. Good luck getting a new GM and manager and some free agents to come in knowing they will be slandered as soon as they leave town.

I just can't fathom a teammate not watching game. Roger Clemens would never be so selfish!

How pissed is Simon Cowell?

Im not sure it is really even related. But it kind of makes you wonder if Manny Ramirez was right all along about how shitty that organization is run/treats people.

I think the writing is one the wall when guys like Theo and Tito are finding their own ways out of town after winning 2 World Series there. Can't find a much better job in baseball financially or fan-support wise.

Sounds like the ownership sucks big time.

I agree. But at least it appears he has a REASON for his actions...versus just being Manny.

11:09 looking like a lock in StL at this pace. Should have bet the farm on that one.

I don't mind walking Cabrera as he's burnt you this series too many times....but having Michael Young hold him on that closely was stupid.
