If you recall, last month I introduced you to my little side project about this season's Florida Marlins. As excited as I was about the Marlins start to the 2011 season, I'm that disappointed now. They came back to earth a little bit, posting a 15-13 record for the month of May. However things are starting to get bad. Both Josh Johnson and Hanley Ramirez are on the disabled list and the Marlins are currently 0-6 to start the month of June.
Let's get to the stats...All of the stats, oeher than the uniform combinations at the bottom, are for the month of May only. When you get to the uniform combinations section, those are the results for the entire season up to this date.

There you have it, the stats from the month of May. As you can see, the Marlins overall were outscored by their opponents this month, yet they still had a winning record for the month. They played most of their games pretty tight at home, and were still outscored by their opponents, yet came away with a losing record. The interesting part though were their results on the road for the month of May. They were again outscored by their opponents, yet they came away with a very good 11-6 record. The big game that cost the Marlins in that category was the 15-4 thumping at the hands of the Diamondbacks on May 30. Had that been a closer game, the Marlins may have outscored their opponents for the month on the road, instead they trailed by 6.
Hopefully once they get healthy, they will sure up their rotation and right the ship. Obviously missing a starter is bad, but in this case, that starter happens to be Josh Johnson. Just having him healthy again would be huge for the Marlins. They should also be able to put a few more runs on the board once Hanley Ramirez returns to the lineup. He is a superstar, when he wants to be, and has the best bat in that Marlins lineup. That is another huge blow for this team. I'm just hoping that the current team can right the ship a bit so things don't completely fall apart before the reinforcements arrive. Right now the Marlins are sinking fast and are in desperate need of some positive results.
I don't want to close on a negative mark however, I'm a glass half-full kind of guy. I want to tip my hat to Anibal Sanchez for his performance during the month of May. The Marlins were 5-1 in the six games he started and outscored their opponents by an average of 2.17 runs per game. That was the big bright spot for the month of May. Hopefully he can keep it going and be the savior for this team now that things aren't going so well.
