Weekly Recap (4/30/12-5/6/12)

The month of May has been very kind to the Miami Marlins so far. The Marlins have won every single game that they have played this month, so far. We hope that continues. At Marlin Maniac, what we hope does not continue is the lack of activity lately. This past week was not a good one for the site. In fact, last week may have been the worst month on MM since I have taken over.

I will take full responsibility for that. I have been preoccupied by work and have not made time to post articles for you guys. That will change this week.

Also, I would like to point out that MM is currently looking for a writer that has a great understanding and feel for the Marlins minor leagues. If you are interested in this or know someone who could be interested, please contact me immediately!

Without any further ado, lets take a look at the past week here on MM:

James C. Etzbach Jr.:

• Take a look at the game recap James made for the Marlins sweeping the series against the San Francisco Giants.

Will Stanifer:

• Will recaps Anibal Sanchez‘s strong start and Heath Bell actually closing out a game and not costing the Marlins a ballgame. It felt great!!

Ehsan Kassim:

• Here is a look at my series preview for the Marlins-Giants series. I tried to be pessimistic and that turned the Marlins fortunes around!
• Ricky Nolasco had another strong start for the Marlins and they were barley able to squeak out a victory to win the opener of the three game series.
• While Josh Johnson and Heath Bell continue to struggle, Omar Infante continues to thrive for the Marlins in 2012. It was his double that drove in the game winning run for the Marlins in the 11th inning vs the San Diego Padres.
