I flirted with the idea of posting a photo of Dolphin Stadium, home of the Florida Marlins (shouldn't it be called Marlins Stadium, considering the baseball team has been highly more successful than the football franchise?).

But really, you don't want to see what I'm looking at. The bright orange seats are painful on the eyes. This place is massive. And massively awful.

Then again, it's a football stadium, so what do you expect. No ambiance. Just 50,000 some seats that will be empty all year.

Brett Myers goes to work in a few hours. Ricky Nolasco is pitching for the Fish.

The Archive Files

Speaking of off-day, I used that time to find a story that's a little different from the usual stuff on the guys on the 25-man roster:

Zach Collier, the 34th overall pick by the Phillies in last week's draft is just two years removed from open heart surgery. The highly-touted outfielder made a quick recovery and maintained his status as one of the top prep sluggers in the country.

From Sunday's action in Atlanta, Ryan Howard heats up in the Phils sweep-clinching win.

In the notebook, Carlos Ruiz is still trying to find his swing.
