7-3 Marlins Now Have to Buck the Probablities to be Bad
"Per a study from BaseballInfoSolutions of the teams that started out the season 3-7 or worse in the past 50 years, 80 percent of those teams ended up under .500. Whereas 80 percent of the teams that start off 7-3 or better ended up over .500 with an average of 92 games won." (BleacherReport)

Great stat. Let's hope we're on the right side of that one.
I hope so too, but JSponge on his blog has put up a more worrisome stat...
"According to ESPN, (Marlins) starters have the highest ERA of any team in history to win 7 of their first 10 games (6.98)."
