Woah woah woah...

[Wild Card]

Why aren't there any threads about Paul Lo Duca's start to the season?

[prinmemito]

He's an overrated catcher. :plain

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

:lol :lol :lol Maybe because we expect it from him? I know I do.

[PhishPhan]

Because this is why he finishes with the averages he does, since he succumbs to fatigue the second half of the year.

[WildMarlinMan2003]

Look at the way he is handling our pitching staff! LoDuca is under rated and I scoff at those who don't care for him as a player.

[Guest Fritz]

He starts like this every year.

 

 

*Waits for July Willy call-up*

[SHUfishfan]

He's always been a great hitter in April/May it's the rest of the year I wanna see him hit like this.

[Iowa]

The way Treanor is playing, which is a very pleasant surprise, I hope this gets enough confidence from Jack that he can rest LoDuca more through out the year so I he can be more fresh down the stretch.

[Michael]

I wanna see Treanor hit his first career homer soon...

[PBMarlin]

Paulie is doing great. And thank God, because for the time being he is providing the spark that is missing from Lowell. OBTW, he now has the highest BA of all the regulars at .353

 

And Treanor is hitting .500.

 

How is that as a turn-about from last year's catching duo?

[CanadianFishFan]

I am also a bit surprised that not many are giving him the props he deserves. Very impressive so far.

[juansoul]

LoDuca is the man! hes got the highest avg on team, he alwys comes though when needed, gotta be my favorite Marlin GO DUKEEEEE!!!

[FishFan24]

Compared to our option last year for starting catching, Lo Duca is the man. :mischief

 

 

Lo Duca >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Castro

Exactly. Who on here would rather we have the tandem of Castro and Redmond over Lo Duca?

I don't know Beinfest, but this is a pretty big place and there are a few crazies among us :wacko

[fishywishy]

people are pretty dumb.

 

lo lo rules.

[Ramp]

lo lo rules.

in the first half :mischief

 

that being said, Go Paulie, Go Marlins

[Marlins2003]

He starts like this every year.

Don't hold your breath lol

 

Willingham is barely hitting above the Mendoza line in Albuquerque. Lo Duca is being given every fourth/fifth day off by the manager. LoDuca's biggest worry isn't fautigue, it's being injured, but that's every catcher's worry.

keep up the good work Paul

Sounds like a clone of Choi with even less power and hitting for an even lower average.

Willingham has pretty good power, and he may be struggling in the PCL right now but he is a slow starter... he finished strong

Even less power? Where have you been prin. And once Josh hits his stride, he will probably own one of the best averages in our system. What was Willingham's OPS last year? It was some ridiculous number. Come on Ramp, provide the info!

[Ramp]

1.014

 

.449obp .565slg

[Beinfest4Prez]

Thank you Ramp.

[rferry]

We should only wish our minor league system had a clone of Choi. Not every day you can get a guy that produces an out just 60% of the time and has 20+ HR power.
