Marlins Lose Third Straight in Sweep by Astros

by @ 6:05 am. Filed under 2007 Marlins

The pitching was there for the Marlins in their two game series against the Astros.  Unfortunately, the hitting wasn’t as the Marlins dropped both games and scored only four runs total.  On Monday, Anibal Sanchez had a very nice start wasted.  He gave up just one run on four hits and six walks with three strikeouts in five innings of work.  The pen gave up three late runs and all the Marlins managed were three themselves the entire game.  Cody Ross led the way with two hits and two runs in the 4-3 loss.

Last night’s game was even more pathetic.  The lone run was a lead off homerun by Hanley Ramirez and the Marlins were shutout the rest of the way in the 6-1 loss.  Jorge Julio was simply awful and I knew the trade for him wasn’t going to be worth it.  He was bombed for six runs and even in a middle relief role he’s costing us games.  He dropped to 0-2 on the season.  So two games the pen cost us a ball game.

And it doesn’t get any easier as the Mets roll into town for two games.  Hopefully Dontrelle Willis can stop the bleeding with a win tonight.
