[Did anyone notice that the 6 runs given up in the game were shared by two of the big free-agent acquisitions? Zambrano - 4ER, Bell - 2ER. How about those off season moves?]<br /><br />But he can't keep his mouth shut. He likes <a href="http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/miami-marlins/fl-hyde-ozzie-guillen-0408-20120407,0,6268299.column">Castro</a>? Seriously? Even if he says it's <a href="http://blogs.sun-sentinel.com/sports_baseball_marlins/2012/04/miami-marlins-manager-ozzie-guillen-apologizes-for-fidel-castro-comments.html">personal, not political</a>, does that make it any better?<br /><br />Apparently not. Cue the <a href="http://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/Cuban-American-Group-To-Boycott-Miami-Marlins-146600455.html?dr">boycott</a>. Hey Marlins! How's that Little Havana outreach going?<br /><br />Even better: ask him how he feels about Chavez in Venezuela and see if he can alienate even more of the Miami community.<br /><br />This is going to go one of two ways: either Guillen keeps his mouth shut from here on out, or he's gone. <br /><br />I say: Fire GuillenSMPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07661452333133379325noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4855230033508659321.post-10648351530419925232012-04-06T10:59:00.003-07:002012-04-06T11:04:33.975-07:00Cincinnati Loves OzzieJust so we're keeping the scorecard up-to-date:<br /><br />2 games, 14 strikeouts, 7 hits, and a <a href="http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?gid=2012_04_05_miamlb_cinmlb_1&mode=wrap#/play?content_id=20392109">double-steal-double-play</a>.<br /><br />Don't forget, <a href="http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/miami-marlins/sfl-marlins-reds-0405,0,847634.story">Cincinnati's first opening-day shutout since 1980</a>.<br /><br />Run, Ozzie, run.

We get <a href="http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/miami-marlins/os-ozzie-guillen-marlins-drunk,0,1360748.story">this</a>.<br /><br />He's a character. He's a story-line. He's a free spirit.<br /><br />He's a drunk.<br /><br />And that's not to mention his questionable coaching ability.<br /><br />1. Reyes hitting the ball in the air in his first two at bats (didn't he ever see Major League).<br />2. Reyes and Ramirez staring at each other like little-leaguers while the ball trickles through the infield.<br />3. Bonifacio tanking it on a fly ball.<br />4. Starting Josh Johnson the first game, even though he clearly wasn't ready and St. Louis wasn't starting their ace. How about putting him in a less stressful position for his first start in almost a year.<br /><br />I can't wait until Zambrano explodes.<br /><br />I admit that my expectations may be a little high. But I don't like the direction this season is headed already. If the Marlins end the season looking up at the Nats again, I'm moving to Alaska.<br /><br />Fire Ozzie Guillen before this gets worse.SMPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07661452333133379325noreply@blogger.com0
