Frackin Cishek just gave up a walk-off 3-run bomb to Van Slyke. Yes he walked one guy and gave upa single before it happened too. Of the Marlins 18 losses, they held the lead in 11 of them (thanks Vin). This shit has got to stop.
ETA: He had Ethier down 1-2 and grooved 2 fastballs right down the middle to him. Then the same thing to Van Slyke - fastball right down the pipe. This guy has forgotten how to pitch.

chapman blows a save.
yimi garcia blows a save. jansen back up shortly, none too soon for the dodgers and their faithful.
then the cishek implosion. which really hurts me as i have him in two leagues ."Instead of all of this energy and effort directed at the war to end drugs, how about a little attention to drugs which will end war?" Albert Hofmann

MIA says it'll be committee, but I'd imagine unless there's a situation with some obvious splits that favor one closer over another, Ramos would get first crack.12-team mixed keeper. 6x6 (OBP, QS the extra categories).

From RotoWorld:
Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports that the Marlins have expressed interest in free agent reliever Rafael Soriano.
Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald confirms the report, but adds that nothing is close. It's noteworthy given Steve Cishek's struggles, but Frisaro writes that whether a deal gets done will depend on whether the Marlins believe Soriano is the right choice at closer for the price. The 35-year-old posted a 3.19 ERA, 32 saves, and a 59/19 K/BB ratio over 62 innings last season, but struggled miserably during the second half. The Marlins plan to mix and match at closer right now, with A.J. Ramos, Bryan Morris, and Mike Dunn among the likely candidates, but Frisaro speculates that Tom Koehler could also be an option once Henderson Alvarez comes off the disabled list. Stay tuned.I'm unconsoled I'm lonely, I am so much better than I used to be.

but yeah, ugly stuff.In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.
