farmer_fran Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Any bets on how many at-bats he gets the rest of the season? I say 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirspud Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Can he start at catcher if Lo Duca can't go? We could really use some offensive potential, Treanor is good defensively and all but he just does not swing a major league bat at all. He is probably one of the weakest hitting catchers in the majors, and that's not an offensive position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollyberry Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Willy is Free.. I wonder if he will start tonight if Duca is not able to catch.. but the D-Treanor combo will be broken so I guess Treanor or Duca will catch him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defense at the catching position is so much more important than a lot of you realize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildMarlinMan2003 Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 LoDuca is starting tonight. I doubt Willingham gets a start for the rest of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishfan79 Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 willingham is there for Extra inning games for off of the bench Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarlinFan10 Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Jack never uses his bench players. In fact, I don't think even think Jack bothers to manage anymore. That's why the Marlins lead the league in shutouts, Jack is sleeping in the dugout instead of calling the bullpen or looking at the lineup. :plain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
