Get to the bullpen!
Also, today would be an awesome time to go home run happy- Volstad is extremely prone to home runs.

At the same time, it's not like the Marlins are totally broke
Hanley Ramirez is a franchise player. You don’t let him go unless he is insistent about leaving, or if you’re 3/4 years out of contention and you can get a massive package of prospects

Lemme toss something out here
If Cook gets lit up, and it turns out his toe is absolutely fine, what if we throw Cook on like 3 days rest? Sinkerballers throw better with a dead arm.

The thought being as a sinkerballer's arm gets tired, he tends to throw more ground balls

Disappointing effort from Cook today
Let’s hope this awful pitching doesn’t continue through the whole trip. Figures that after everyone has been touting our quality-start numbers that we run out two straight bad efforts.
There could be a rust-factor as well
Generally, an extra day of rest is ok, but 9’s a bit much.
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
whatever his excuse
its on him and the pitching staff to make sure he’s ready to go. Either that wasn’t done, or he was fine and just choked today. In either case, can’t have too many of these…
Or, he had a bad game.
I don’t see why there needs to be a moral failure behind every bad performance.
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
Which
I acknowledged in my post, almost exactly as you do, so I’m not sure what you are saying. In any event, I’m not asserting the certainty of moral failure here, just raising the possibility that it might not have been a good decision to put him on the hill today. Whether that is true is, to me, an important question.
Here's how I read it:
whatever his excuse, its on him and the pitching staff to make sure he’s ready to go. Either that wasn’t done, or he was fine and just choked today
Sure looks like you’re saying “either someone dropped the ball” or he choked.

GRRRRRRRRR
All I have to say…..Dodgers #1 on my hate list ( but who doesn’t hate them)
Atlanta and Florida are #2 and #3 on my list especially when playing at their place. Rockies just can’t seem to get over the 500% humidity down there and the opposing
pitchers who get great ball movement in those nasty sweat box pitchers stadiums. Going up to Black Hawk, maybe catch game 2 up there. Let’s hope for 3-3 or 4-2 road
trip….although Nationals playing well right now as well.
just think back
to that 570 foot bomb that the Big Cat hit in Miami all those years ago. I still remember that shot, biggest HR I’ve ever seen. One good memory from that stadium, anyway.
