Guest Juanky Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 0-0 with 4 walks is just amazing. Swung the bat twice today. That deserves its own thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramp Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 maybe he will find the river out in RF tonight ala San Fran I havent been able to use this bad boy in a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBMarlin Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Choi's OBP is .379.....which is only valuable if the guys behind him (Castro and Gonzalez) are moving him along. Which leads me to the thought (and I'll probably get blasted) of putting Choi in the 8th spot, allowing our pitchers a better opportunity at a productive out, and letting Luis and JP knock him in.

Guest Juanky Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Maybe if we flip flop a hot Niner and Choi's extremely patient self we could have Niner hitting two run homers instead of solo shots. Just a thought. BTW, there were some fans a couple seats over to me yesterday that were so pissed that Choi walked that they wanted DLee back. When will it end.

FreshFish Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Choi's potential is just sick. that's all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 If I were the Marlins, this is the lineup I'd try: Luis JP Choi Miggy Hulk Niner Sea Bass Ray Ray Pitcher This lineup is an excellent idea IMO. You have the 2 speedsters at the top, then Choi hitting 3rd. Now Choi does take a lot of walks, but put him up there 3rd with JP and/or Luis on base, and he WILL get pitches to hit, especially with Mikey and Cabrera protecting him. That lineup puts 3 guys that get on base a lot in front of the 2 power hitters. I know it's top heavy, but I think the top 5 (and 6 if Niner hits) in this lineup could be just lethal.

Jack tried this already. I'm not sure if batting 3rd was too much pressure for the youngster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this lineup is the best option, but obviously it shouldn't be used if it causes Choi to struggle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marlins Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Choi was great! 4 walks is like 4 singles. Great game for Choi. But he still needs to learn how to hit other pitches besides the fastball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beinfest4Prez Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 :blink: Ditto. Marlins, Choi can hit other pitches then the fastball. Or do you not notice that hes been getting several hits with the breaking pitches lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
