Miami Marlins president Peter Bendix made some outrageous claims about the team's playoff chances, just a month into the season.
The Miami Marlins entered the new season with some hope following a surprise playoff berth a year ago. Miami reached the National League Wild-Card Series after posting a record of 84-78 but was swept in two games by the division rival, Philadelphia Phillies. Despite this, the Marlins believed that they had found some momentum to build off behind up-and-coming manager Skip Schumaker.
Even if he believed this to his core, it never should have been said out loud. Baseball is a game of streaks, with a few solid weeks having the ability to completely change the trajectory of a season. Miami has started the year off very slowly but they have talent on the team that could figure things out down the line.However, this is the same organization that pushed out one of the brightest minds in baseball, Kim Ng.
