pollythewog Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Stanton, Yelich, and Ozuna have accumlated a total WAR of 12 this season. Best OF in baseball in 2014? Goes nicely with the worst IF in baseball (haven't looked up total WAR, but I assume it's way down there) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SongInTheAir Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Mike Trout is a superstar and Kole Calhoun is on his way there. If Josh Hamilton ever returns to the player he used to be, the Angels might have a slightly better outfield than we do. Until then, though...we're pretty good.

fanofthefish Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 In 2012 I had the pleasure of watching Stanton homer in a rehab game with the Hammerheads which drove in his teammates Yelich and Ozuna, I thought the Marlins could be exciting to watch for the next several years. I can't say this is the best outfield in the Majors at this time, but given some more development and health and oh yeah keeping all three! It could easily be one of the best in all of baseball for at least the next 6-7 years. I also like Pittsburgh's with McCutchen, Polanco and either Harrison or Marte, more than most teams out there.

Michael Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I like Calhoun. He has slimmed down a lot since his ASU days Spike actually likes a baseball player? Hory sheit. Calhoun is a pretty good player, good arm, too. Wonder if Hamilton will ever come back around and be able to play like he did before. Probably not.

I Love Me Some Fish Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 I hate to think where the team would be without the outfield production it has gotten this season.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Christian Yelich has future MVP written all over him. I can give him batting title, maybe not MVP, though. That's a very difficult award to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild Card Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 Btw Spike, Pedro Alvarez is so good at third base that he's now a first baseman. I can't believe it took Pitt that long to put JayHay at third base... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually you said Alvarez was better. And he is absolutely not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
