MIAMI -- The Miami Marlins bench -- if nothing else -- is looking formidable. Authentic Ernie Banks Jersey .On Tuesday night, the slumping Marlins lost 4-3 to the Philadelphia Phillies. It was the Marlins fifth loss in a row and their 10th in 11 games, a slide that has knocked Miami (68-71) -- at least for the moment -- out of serious contention for an NL wild-card playoff consideration.Earlier Tuesday, the Marlins activated right fielder Giancarlo Stanton (groin) and first baseman Justin Bour (ankle) from the disabled list.Initially, they will be used as pinch hitters, giving the Marlins a super strong bench.Asked about Stanton, Marlins manager Don Mattingly said he wasnt sure what to expect.Are we going to see him in the field playing nine innings or are we going to have him coming off the bench for an at-bat? Mattingly said. Hopefully, he makes it all the way back to where we do see him on the field.In addition to Stanton and Bour, a third middle-of-the-order Marlins slugger, center fielder Marcell Ozuna, could be back by Wednesdays series finale against the Philadelphia Phillies.Since rosters can expand to up to 40 players after Sept. 1, Mattingly could have those three plus speedy pinch runner Yefri Perez on his bench. Others on his bench on Tuesday included Ichiro Suzuki and Derek Dietrich joining Bour on the left side, and switch-hitter Tomas Telis.From the right side, Ozuna would join Chris Johnson, Robert Andino and Jeff Mathis.It sure makes my (lineup) card look better, Mattingly said.That bench played a role in a Marlins comeback Tuesday night that ultimately fell short but was still dangerous. Trailing 4-0, the Marlins scored one in the fifth, two in the eighth and had two runners on in the ninth.Phillies manager said the expanded rosters make September baseball difficult on him.Its tough, Mackanin said. I dont like it. Its really not a normal game. ... When you have so many players, there are so many possible moves you can make. ... You cant match up.Bench play aside, the Marlins need their starters to do their jobs. That would include Wednesdays scheduled starting pitcher Andrew Cashner, who is 4-11 with a 5.00 ERA this season.Cashner, acquired by the Marlins on July 28 in what so far has been a disaster of a trade with the San Diego Padres, cost Miami three players, including their top hitting prospect and a potential future closer.In return, the Marlins have received a pitcher who has been 0-4 with a 5.57 ERA since joining Miami.Cashner recently told media members that he hates Miamis no-beard policy. He is a free agent after this season, and he actually said that will be a factor in him possibly leaving Miami.For his part, Mattingly admitted that the policy doesnt make us better or more disciplined, but its just who we want to be as an organization.Yet, while beards are banned, tattoos, for example are tolerated. The Marlins have no problems drafting or signing a player with a tattoo, but beards for reasons they cant logically explain are not part of what the organizational concept.The irony of all this is that the way Cashner has pitched, the Marlins may not want him back -- beard or not.On the other side Wednesday night, the Phillies will start right-hander Jeremy Hellickson. He is 2-0 with a 2.13 ERA in four starts against Miami this season.Overall this season, he is 10-8 with a 3.88 ERA. He is on pace to record his lowest ERA since 2012, when he was at 3.10. He is also on pace for 32 starts, which will be one more than his previous career high, set in 2012 and 2013 with the Tampa Bay Rays. Authentic David Ross Jersey . Three came down to the fourth quarter while quarterbacks continued to shine in all four games; so important to the overall quality of the game. Authentic Willson Contreras Jersey .Y. -- Leading 3-0 with only 11:25 left, the Colorado Avalanche committed a seemingly meaningless penalty to give the New York Islanders a power play. http://www.cheapcubsjerseysshop.com/ . Toronto has dropped games to Indiana and Miami since a five-game winning streak and closed out a three-game road trip at 1-2. The international break seems to have come and gone at an opportune time for Watford, as the club makes its return to Premier League play by traveling to Riverside Stadium on Sunday to battle Middlesbrough aiming to snap a poor run of form.After starting the campaign winless in their first three fixtures with a draw and two losses, the Hornets (2-2-3) began to turn things around with consecutive victories over West Ham United and Manchester United, which saw Etienne Capoue, Juan Zuniga and Troy Deeney all score to top the Red Devils in impressive fashion.But they were unable to carry their momentum, slumping to a 2-0 loss to Burnley before collecting a point in an exhilarating 2-2 draw with Bournemouth prior to the break. The Hornets fell behind on two occasions against Bournemouth, but found an equalizer through Deeney and Isaac Success, who netted in the 65th minute.Watford will need to concentrate harder in the defensive third if they are to take a point. The Hornets have not kept a clean sheet yet this campaign, something manager Walter Mazzarri knows is a key to victory for his squad.I told them that they needed to be concentrated immediately and to be focused for the next game, Mazzarri said. Its not easy when you have only two or three days before your next game after an international break, but I think that I have players who are very responsible so I am very happy for that.Mazzarri also discussed his teams fitness ahead of this clash.Today was the first day when I had the whole team together after the international break and I spoke with them, he said.The Hornets do have some history on their side as the club has scored at least one goal in 15 of their last 16 matches against Middlesbrough. Authentic Andre Dawson Jersey. Deeney should be properly motivated as the fringe England international is on the cusp of scoring his 100th career goal across all competitions, and has scored in each of Watfords last four fixtures against Boro.Middlesbrough (1-3-3) comes into this contest in desperate need of three points as they find themselves in 16th place. The clubs lone victory came in a 2-1 triumph over Sunderland on Aug. 21, but it has been a slog since then as they are winless in five with three losses and a pair of draws.Boro grabbed the lead in their last outing prior to the break against West Ham United through Cristhian Stuani, but Dimitri Payet fired home an equalizer six minutes later to force the clubs into a share of the spoils. Boro manager Aitor Karanka made three changes to the side that lost to Tottenham Hotspur the previous week, brining in Adam Forshaw, Viktor Fischer and Jordan Rhodes.The manager praised his clubs depth after salvaging a point at the Olympic Stadium.I decided to play Jordan at West Ham because I liked his attitude a lot against Spurs, Karanka said. The substitutes in that game went to the pitch with the right intensity, and especially in the last 35-40 minutes we competed with Tottenham. I have to choose the best players for every game. I want 11 players fighting on the pitch; they have to know that that is the way.These clubs last faced off in the Championship on April 6, 2015 with Watford taking a 2-0 win thanks to goals from Deeney and Odion Ighalo.
