1983 -after a truly awful 1982 season, the expectations had been set low for a re-set Miami Marlins side going into 1983. The team, still built around veteran forward Asif Kaval, proved to have more resilience than initially thought and won some big games, including defeated their Florida rivals the Gators. The Marlins look set for a return to the play-offs but a mounting injury crisis at the end of the season saw them lack a starting center and forced to play an improvised line up. This saw them fall out of contention. This was still seen as a major improvement and hope was high that going in 1984 the Marlins would be back in contention.
