Anibal Sanchez has to be feeling pretty good about himself. After taking 2-of-3 from the D-backs, finishing the series with a no-hitter from Sanchez Wednesday night the Marlins find themselves back in the wildcard chase. Much of this can be credited to Coach Joe Giradi, who lifted this team somehow and has got them playing inspired baseball despite a low team payroll. If anything this team is proving they can outplay other teams in the NL that far greater star power.
Florida is 70-69 and only a few games back in the wildcard. This team has always had a lot of fight in them and are known for being a scrappy bunch. With Dontrelle Willis and other prodigy pitchers in the rotation this team is still very much alive. The upcoming series they have are against the Phillies, Mets, and Braves. Look for the unexpected to happen. These underdogs are about to quit and give up hope on their season. It's now or never for the fighting Fish.
