The Miami Marlins are hoping to walk away with their 12th win in a row this afternoon. For fans of the team from South Florida, the streak, although only in the Grapefruit League, is bigger than some outside the state would think. After years of losing and the team shedding itself of stars and high-priced salaries, this is something to get excited about.
The Marlins appear to be recovering from the evacuation of talent that was purged by the front office last offseason. The pitching staff appears to be as deep as it ever has been. There are plenty of reasons to think players like Brian Anderson, Lewis Brinson, and Monte Harrison will shine in years to come.
