This took longer than I expected - but it was kinda fun (and informative). https://marlinmaniac.com/2019/12/15/marlins-top-10-players/

It's probably exactly who you're expecting, but I don't want to let the cat out of the bag lol.

Here's part 4. I'll probably get to part 5 by Friday or Saturday. If you don't want to click through, today's a good one. 20. Josh Beckett 19. Charles Johnson 18. A.J. Burnett 17. Anibal Sanchez 16. Gary Sheffield 15. J.T. Realmuto 14. Jeff Conine 13. Jose Fernandez 12. Mike Lowell 11. Marcell Ozuna https://marlinmaniac.com/2019/12/11/marlins-top-20-players/

...and Part 3. I know I said I'd be publishing on Friday, but I've just been too excited about the series to wait that long. Also, I needed something to help me procrastinate from college and from setting up all the Christmas lights. https://marlinmaniac.com/2019/12/09/marlins-top-50-players-part-3/

I mean, we could do a lot worse than Romo, right?

Insane. Tommy John has a surgery named after him and pitched till he was like 50. Dale Murphy, Dwight Evans, and Donnie Baseball all deserve to be in after Harold Baines was picked last year. Crazy.

Here's Part 2: https://marlinmaniac.com/2019/12/07/marlins-top-50-players-part-2/

Hey I wrote this as part one of a five-part series profiling the "Top 50 Marlins," in terms of WAR (offensive, defensive, and pitching WAR, combined, even for pitchers). I welcome any feedback. If you don't wanna click on through, here's the crib-notes version: 50. Omar Infante 49. Livan Hernandez 48. Devon White 47. Ivan Rodriguez 46. Al Leiter 45. Derek Dietrich 44. Chris Hammond 43. Steve Cishek 42. Robb Nen 41. Edgar Renteria ...and the full version: https://marlinmaniac.com/2019/12/06/marlins-top-50-players/ I'll be posting another part over on Marlin Maniac every Friday, if anyone is so inclined to check it out.

Keller and Kinley? What about Conley? He's by far the worst performing pitcher on the current roster.

A pair of moves that made me happy. A rarity. Hoping JT Riddle gets a fair shake somewhere. Hopefully we see Tayron Guerrero later on. I know he was hit or miss (literally sometimes), but I'm still in love with his velo.

That was painful, Granderson. Waaaaay outside.

Chip Carey just called Pablo Lopez an "impressive prospect." Pretty sure he lost his rookie status last season. The only "prospect" in the rotation is Alcantara.

Not so much when you live in Atlanta's MLB.TV blackout area. I'm forced to watch the only broadcast available.

What? Source?

Alfaro just took two pitches in that very predictable strikeout. Buy a lottery ticket.

So Trevor Richards could get a win with the way he's pitching, but what are the odds that Marquez goes the distance, allows just one hit all game long, and loses?

The pitching seems as good as advertised, but hitting so far, geez.

You're kidding? Why didn't they say something?

I know. Thanks Draft Kings, I'll find you if I need you.

Yeah, and unfortunately, good pitching can't score us runs.

Man, Alfaro will swing at anything.

No!

It was only a matter of time.

Hello. Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me.

Well shit.
