Shelton and his continued "showcasing" of Polanco. This has to end, but I'm afraid he's here until after the trade deadline, then they'll dump him.
That's it...now you ruined Doc's day

I'm really surprised that BC didn't release him on June 1, but I think he's been forced to keep him because no other outfielder has grabbed the opportunity to replace Polanco. That's what I keep coming back to, that there are no minor league outfielders in the system good enough to replace a guy who's playing so poorly and has no hope of playing better. It's inexcusable.

IDK what Anderson shook off before the pitcher roped a liner to center, but Stallings I hope yelled back, "Happy now?"

I should mention that once again, solid contact against a Pirates pitcher on an 0-2 count

Let's get a double play and call it a night for Anderson.

If Marte gets a hit, pull him.

we've seen this act with Anderson before. 4-6 inning, gets ahead in the count, and then gives up solid contact.

GET HIM OUT OF THERE!!!!!!

And he's gone. While they wait on the new pitcher, I see the infielders were playing Uno or Go Fish with their cards.

I guess Shelton didn't think Anderson could execute a pitch.

He's no Crowe, that's for dang sure!

Hernandez hurt coming home on the infield chopper.

2-1 Marlins.

This is going to be another piece of evidence of why there is going to be a universal DH coming to a ball park near you next season.

How ironic. The case for a pitcher hitting and having a DH all in one trip around the bases.

3-1 Marlins

Holmes makes Anderson's line complete now.
