The forecast for Sunday calls for rain. Lots of it.
The Marlins can only hope it does, hope that they don’t have to face the hottest pitcher in the majors, a pitcher who once belonged to them but was traded to the Pirates in what might rank as the worst deal in franchise history.
Yes, worse even than the Miguel Cabrera trade to Detroit.
Trevor Williams is scheduled to take the mound Sunday for the Pirates, serving as a painful reminder of what might have been had the Marlins held on to him rather than give him up as compensation to the Pirates for pitching coach Jim Benedict.
