Believe it or not, the Miami Marlins have played better of late. After starting 0-5 under new manager Dan Jennings, the team has gone 6-5 in their last 11 to pull back within 10 games under .500 for the season.

While 10 games under never sounds good, it’s a start to a march back to the .500 mark. Can the team pull that off, I don’t know, I won’t rule it out, but I also would not bet on it.

The Miami Marlins have won back-to-back series for what feels like the first time this season. They can make it three straight with a series win over the Colorado Rockies, on the road. In fact, 6 of the Marlins next 9 games are against the NL West basement dwellers. A good chance for the Marlins to try to turn things around.

We sat down with the Editor of FanSided’s Rockies blog Rox Pile, Bonny DeMuro to get acquainted with his club as they prepare for the season’s first meeting with the Marlins.
