The assertion that there will be few tears shed as 'the Florida Marlins at Sun Life Stadium' leap off the diving board of history this week seems a little premature.
Already the skies have been crying most of the day. Maybe Mama Nature will allow a game tonight, maybe not.
There's a sense of loss, as McKeon stares at the crumbling clubhouse, as the front office boys begin to interview for his replacements.
And the talk of getting rid of Nolasco is building.
And the mini-crime wave known as Juan Carlos Oviedo has, nevertheless, positive hopes for the future.
The Brewers swept Florida for the season yesterday in Miller Park, giving the Marlins a losing road record for the year, and sealing up the cellar of the NL East for the Fish.
The not-so-perennial-anymore cellar-dwellers the Nationals are here to finish up 2011, fighting for 3rd place.
Scarily, the Nats are on an 8-game road win streak while the Fish have a .400 record at crumbly, drippy Joe-No-Mo Stadium.
Scary Nats rookie Tommy Milone is scheduled to start tonight, as Anibal Sanchez starts for Florida.
UPDATE: Jack will retire again after Wednesday.
