Yea, I don't see why you all seem to think our bench is a pressing need. In fact, statistically we have one of the best benchs in baseball.

stratton will be like that all guy we called up in september in the '98 season who held the all time minor league home run record but never made it in the big show

The Marlins position players are all so good defensively, there's rarely a need to make a defensive change late in the game either. Our bench just doesn't factor in the game very often. If we need a guy to PH late in the game for a pitcher, you've got Castro, Banks, and Hollandsworth. That's really not that bad.

why does everyone keep saying something like "is Stratton receiving help"?

 

im sure he is..... too bad nothing works

 

he could hit 30 bombs a year in the pros but would hit under .200 with atleast 250k.... not that pretty

Everything could be better, but its not a pressing need...like an OF bat...Id give Cabs another week. Maybe hell figure something out over the break. Cyggy you cant take guys who can play every IF position and replace him with a one-dimensional player. You need two of those types and we have them. We have our two power bats and one contact bat off the bench...whats so bad about it? Im failing to see.

I agree - we've added what was need, which was pitching relief. I don't think the Marlins need to be in a state of desperation for new players - we're fine!

We still need a lefty power hitter :unsure :

Not desperately though, or as desperately as we needed relief pitching.

If we want a ring we'll need a bat.

Well we'll see what the FO decides.
