Maybe it won’t be Ozuna right behind Stanton.

Dietrich higher hlcytryn RETWEETED 11 years ago @SoFlaMarlins @VoiceOverDan @SoFlaSportsFan @fishatbat I’m trying to be optimistic. SoFlaMarlins RETWEETED 11 years ago @SoFlaSportsFan @VoiceOverDan @fishatbat But he has to get on base 1st in order to get into scoring position. Only did that 32% of the time MarlinsNation RETWEETED 11 years ago RT @fishatbat: So Hill and Jennings essentially traded away top prospect to also buy themselves more cap space SoFlaMarlins RETWEETED 11 years ago @hlcytryn @VoiceOverDan @SoFlaSportsFan @fishatbat with Marcell Ozuna and then a bunch of black holes thereafter SoFlaSportsFan RETWEETED 11 years ago @SoFlaMarlins @VoiceOverDan @fishatbat Not wholly. Getting yourself into scoring position without giving up an out helps a little. VoiceOverDan RETWEETED 11 years ago @SoFlaMarlins @SoFlaSportsFan @fishatbat is he worse than The Marlins 2B platoon from last season? Couldn’t possibly be. hlcytryn RETWEETED 11 years ago @VoiceOverDan @SoFlaSportsFan @SoFlaMarlins @fishatbat Dee Gordon, Christian Yelich, Giancarlo Stanton is a pretty nice 1, 2, 3. SoFlaMarlins RETWEETED 11 years ago @SoFlaSportsFan @VoiceOverDan @fishatbat In order to have chances to run Gordon has to get on base, which he is markedly bad at. SoFlaMarlins RETWEETED 11 years ago @SoFlaSportsFan @VoiceOverDan @fishatbat Runs aren’t indicative of the player though. Runs are wholly dependent on the people batting behind SoFlaSportsFan RETWEETED 11 years ago @VoiceOverDan @SoFlaMarlins @fishatbat And Yelich will give him plenty of chances to run because he is so patient. VoiceOverDan RETWEETED 11 years ago @SoFlaMarlins @fishatbat I mean, he did lead the league in steals. He must have been on base enough to make it count. VoiceOverDan RETWEETED 11 years ago @SoFlaSportsFan @SoFlaMarlins @fishatbat it would be nice to have someone batting in front of Yelich who could get himself in scoring pos SoFlaSportsFan RETWEETED 11 years ago @VoiceOverDan @SoFlaMarlins @fishatbat Even though his OBP isn’t in the same league with Yelich, he scored about the same amount of runs. marlins_media RETWEETED 11 years ago RT @fishatbat: So Hill and Jennings essentially traded away top prospect to also buy themselves more cap space Jrod24_ RETWEETED 11 years ago RT @fishatbat: So Hill and Jennings essentially traded away top prospect to also buy themselves more cap space SoFlaMarlins RETWEETED 11 years ago @VoiceOverDan @fishatbat Contact isn’t his problem. Eye is. Eye isn’t affected by your home ballpark. Speed only kills if it’s on base. VoiceOverDan RETWEETED 11 years ago @SoFlaMarlins @fishatbat he’ll be a better hitter in Marlins park. Fits his game. I know he needs to work on contact, but speed kills. SoFlaMarlins RETWEETED 11 years ago @VoiceOverDan @fishatbat not a leadoff guy just because he can run. He is pretty bad at getting on base, the sole function of a leadoff guy appages RETWEETED 11 years ago RT @fishatbat: So Hill and Jennings essentially traded away top prospect to also buy themselves more cap space SoFlaMarlins RETWEETED 11 years ago @fishatbat welcome to Marlins Baseball
