Week in Review

Chris Coghlan, heading home.

Overview: The Marlins took two of three from the Braves and Phillies to finish the year at 87-75, six games out of first and five out of the Wild Card.
Highlight of the Week: Ricky Nolasco strikes out nine consecutive Braves.
Line of the Week: Nolasco was on fire at Atlanta Wednesday, setting a new team record with 16 strikeouts. His line:

7.2 IP, 4 H, 2 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 16 K

Looking Ahead: The Marlins are done for the year. As for Ted and me, we'll be doing a few other things around here in October before going relatively dormant until pitchers and catchers report. We'll pop up from time to time to discuss the Winter Meetings, trades, free agent signings, etc., as well. In the meantime, you can find Ted on Ted Ginn & Tonic (his Miami Dolphins blog) and at 4th and Fail. I blog about jazz at Hot House. You can also find us at Twitter (Dave, Ted).
