dontrelle going for #20

5-0 in the 5th. Looks like he's going to get it. It's going to be a dog fight for the NL Cy Young between Capenter and Dontrelle. Clemens bum hamstring and lack of wins I think has all but sealed his fate unless the writers give it to him for sentimental value!
 
Dontrelle Willis by the end of this year will have thrown 200 innings, won 20 games, delivered 20 hits, scored 10 runs, and driven in 10 runs. How many pitchers can say that?
 
I hope Dontrelle doesn't lead the Marlins to the wild card. That's just potentially more dirt infield time for the Dolphins.

Another selfish Dolphins fan. Put a little perspective into the thread you're hijacking...

Dontrelle is only the 13th black pitcher to win 20 games in a season. If you think I'm just being racist, you should have seen the looks on the faces of not only Willis but guys like Lenny Harris and Juan Pierre. This is a HUGE deal, personally for him and for the team itself, and to maybe rekindle baseball for African-Americans.

Plus, the Marlins are the better team right now, face it.
 
The Marlins winning the wildcard might be the only way any playoff games are played the stadium this year. Cmon, you have to root for Dontrell and the Marlins. Im a Sox fan, Id love to see a Red Sox/Marlins series.
 
Whatever happened to Aj Burnette? It appears D-Train has taken over this team. AND he can hit!

This is no hijack. Somebody expressed an opinion on the issue, and I expressed an opposing opinion.

I actually like Dontrelle as a pitcher quite a bit. I still will not root for the Marlins as long as they cause dirt to appear on the field during Dolphins games. I don't really care what whites, blacks, Asians, or hispanics feel about that. My rooting interest is for the Dolphins, and it is not for the Marlins in baseball. I'm absolutely entitled to have those rooting interests and to express them in this forum.
 
Yes you do Jimmy James but guess what. The infield dirt isn't as bad as people make it seem. People use it as an excuse for our mistakes. You better hope we keep that infield dirt because If not what are we going to blame? The actual players? No way...that can't be!!!

Plus...Marlins deserve to play in that stadium more then the Fins right now. They've WON something lately. Go Marlins!

No dogfight......Carpenter has won it
 
True that but if Carpenter bombs his last 3 starts and Dontrelle leads the Marlins to the Wild-Card then I think that D-Train will get the nod. With the way Carpenter has pitched it's hard to believe he will get bombed in his last outings but anything can happen!
