Florida Marlins angry at Giants GM Brian Sabean... →
Marlins players reacted angrily to comments made by Giants General Manager Brian Sabean about Scott Cousins, saying they have lost respect for Sabean and he should be held responsible if anything happens to their teammate.
Cousins has received death threats since his home plate collision with Giants catcher Buster Posey May 25 in San Francisco resulted in a season-ending injury to Posey.
The...

John Baker's take on the Cousins/Posey collision →
I know that Buster Posey is a rising star, but let’s rewind to last season when Nyjer Morgan went out of his way to hit Brett Hayes (effectively ending his season and sparking an ugly brawl the next day) in what was clearly a dirty play. How come no one was on PTI arguing for a rule change then?
And if it wasn’t Cousins who hit Posey, but instead someone like Tulowitzki, or...
“I could smell that smoke and I was like, ‘That ain’t a hot-dog stand.’”
– Chris Coghlan on the fire that broke out in Dodger Stadium’s upper deck last night.
I don’t know why, but I can’t stop laughing at this quote. Mostly because I imaginine that Chris Coghlan delivered it in his best Redd Foxx impression.

So here is a Scott Cousins appreciation post; because he’s really not a bad guy.
“It’s a baseball play. It’s part of the risk of being a catcher. We’re trying to...”

Live from the Marlins bullpen
oldtimefamilybaseball:
Tonight, Clay Hensley spoke with the Marlins broadcast team from the bullpen. They talked about the improved Marlins defense, and he took some email questions (the two most uncomfortable bullpens are at Citi Field and Citizens Bank Park). He also had Edward Mojica do an impression – Mojica mimicked Ryan Webb’s delivery.
To be honest, I’m not sure how many teams do this...
Gaby Sanchez named NL Player of the Week
All season, Gaby Sanchez has been the Marlins’ most consistent hitter.
And over the past seven games, the 27-year-old first baseman also set the standard for hitting in the National League.
After leading the league in hits (13), RBIs (10) and total bases (22), Sanchez was named the National League Player of the Week on Monday.
It was the first career weekly award for Sanchez, who...
Historic April nets JJ NL Pitcher of the Month →
A self-acknowledged perfectionist, two-time All-Star Josh Johnson is accustomed to success. But as impressive as he’s been in recent years, the Marlins’ ace may never have been better than how he threw this April.
The 27-year-old was 3-0 with an MLB-leading 0.88 ERA.
Johnson’s 18 hits allowed were the fewest since 1900 by a pitcher with a minimum of 40 innings before May 1....

LoMo PodCast →
“Most of the show is about his Twitter prowess. We discussed how he befriended a Phillies fan on Twitter, whether he’d date someone he met on Twitter and whether he was serious when he recently Tweeted about suffering a manscaping injury.”
Bid on Logan Morrison's cast! →
I personally find this a bit disgusting, but okay. If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a used cast signed by an entire MLB team (excluding Hanley Ramirez for some reason) — well, here’s your chance!
All proceeds go to the Lung Association.
(And yes, this is real. Gross, but real.)
“This is like a Little League team. Everybody is happy, and happy to be here.”
– Hanley Ramirez on the 2011 Marlins
Scott Cousins is a dork →
How did your family react to the [grand slam on Thursday night]?
My girlfriend, Mandy, works for a marketing firm in San Francisco. It’s dead silent in there, people on their computers doing work, and she had her head phone in, watching the game on MLB-TV. She said when I did that, she screamed out loud, really loud. Everybody in the office stood up out of their cubicles and looked at...
A Phillies loss at San Diego tonight would give...
I realize that it’s early but considering the Phillies were supposed to be ~omg unstoppable1!~, I find this fact completely amazing and intend to enjoy it as much as I can. The boys are playing really well right now, and this is without the lineup not performing to their full potential. I cannot wait to see what happens when players like Stanton and Hanley finally get hot, and LoMo returns...
