You can't steal first. Getting on base is his issue.

You can't steal first base.

I am forced to agree that there is something wrong with the training regimen for this organization. Why are so many "kids" having so many issues with their muscles. You can overtrain and lose the way muscles are supposed to work while looking for power. Baseball is NOT football.

If I had to have one Marlin up with a guy on third and one out, it might be Liam Hicks.

Five things: 1. I'd like to see this team off to a decent start. This organization often does not do that. A record of .500 on May 31 would do it. 2. Joe Mack catching with Gus 2 days a week. 3. Health for the back end of the bullpen. Include Nardi and Josh White in this. 4. Stowers and Marsee doing what I hope they can do. 5. Clayton McCullough winning manager-of=the-year.

The article presented the idea that the Marlins "competitive window" may be opening. I actually think that is true and am looking forward to how this year proceeds. I also think Paddock can give McCullaugh a "window" to sort out his pitching options.

The guy is only 23 I think. Lots of improvement last year. Love his defense, very accurate arm (sort of an anti- Jorge Cantu). If his offense keeps improving, I can live with him. As an organization, it does seem to me that their coaches work well with bat-to-ball improvement. Go Fish!

His surgery was so long ago that he was able to not push or be under pressure to return. That should allow for very well controlled rehab that is now done.

If this guy can just not walk a lot of hitters and keep the ball in the park, I will be fine. I was really upset when they first traded him. Welcome back.

This is a not exciting, but just fine signing. He is not going to win any awards , but will give them a chance to sort out their eventual rotation. No biggie but OK.

This is my problem with the Weathers deal. I would bet that Ryan Weathers probably wins 12 or more games this year. I also would bet that all four of the guys we got will have O rbis in the major leagues this year. When are we going to start worrying about THIS YEAR. I am OK with the Cabrera deal because I feel we probably got major league ready talent in return. Fortunately for the Marlins, I simply love my baseball. I do not feel the entire fan base feels the same.

muy bien

I have to agree with most. OK with the Cabrera trade but Weathers said adios for this year. ENOUGH with the future, let's start enjoying the here and now!!

Innings eating veterans are the road to mediocrity. I much prefer high upside young pitchers like Snelling and White. Speaking of pitchers returning from Tommy John, don't sleep on Dax Fulton. Another pitcher we seem to forget about is Andrew Nardi. The FO has a better idea of his rehab and signed him and kept him on the 40 man roster. This is the guy Schumacher brought in late with runners on base to get out of jams. He could be a real major +++. Go Fish!
