May 18, 200620 yr I was thinking about who are our Marlins most compared to and wondered how good we could be. 1. Hanley Ramirez - Edgar Renteria 2. Dan Uggla - Marcus Giles 3. Miguel Cabrera - Albert Pujols 4. Josh Willingham - not sure, maybe someone has something. (Not Conine, because I think Willy is better) 5. Jeremy Hermida - Brian Giles 6. Mike Jacobs - Jason Giambi (maybe?) 7. Miguel Olivo - I'll get killed for this but he reminds me of a poor man's Pudge. 8. Reggie Abercrombie - Once called a 5 tool player, maybe Beltran?
May 18, 200620 yr Olivo is a poor mans Molina...not Bengie or Yadier, but the other one. Yah, I went there.
May 18, 200620 yr Please he's better than Jose Molina. No one has an idea on Hammer? How about Abercrombie - Devon White? Lol.
May 18, 200620 yr Well I mean are we talking about comparing them to what they are or what they could be in fantasyland? because then I'd say Abercrombie = Eric Davis.
May 18, 200620 yr Jose Molina! Thats it. I'll forget that in a few minutes and he'll go back to being the unnamed Molina brother, but I'd say him and Olivo are about equal, neither are more than average backups at best. Eric Reed=my arthritic grandmother who has emphasema carrying a whiffle ball bat.
May 18, 200620 yr Well I mean are we talking about comparing them to what they are or what they could be in fantasyland? because then I'd say Abercrombie = Eric Davis. What their potential could add up to.
May 18, 200620 yr Eric Reed=my arthritic grandmother who has emphasema carrying a whiffle ball bat. who brought up Eric Reed?
May 18, 200620 yr While I dont think Beltran is as good as alot of people think, he does in fact have more potential than Abercrombie. Solid bat+good defense, I'd say I hope Abs could turn into a Mark Kotsay type. Dan Uggla-Jeff Kent. Jacobs-Tino? Cabrera-Schmidt Hermida-Sheffield
May 18, 200620 yr Jacobs - Burnitz Hermida - Paul O'Neil Hanley - Renteria Abercrombie - Preston Wilson with LESS plate discipline Uggla - Brett Boone (pre-steroids...yea, I went there too) Cabs - Pujols light Willingham - Conine with more Power
May 18, 200620 yr 1. Hanley Ramirez - Edgar Renteria 2. Dan Uggla - Marcus Giles 3. Miguel Cabrera - Manny Ramirez 4. Josh Willingham - Lance Berkman 5. Jeremy Hermida - Brian Giles 6. Mike Jacobs - Geoff Jenkins 7. Miguel Olivo - Yadier Molina minus the blocking 8. Reggie Abercrombie - Mike Cameron
May 19, 200620 yr Are we not allowed to compare Abercrombie to a white man or something? Who said that? While you are being a smartass give me a comparison between Reggie and a white center fielder.
May 19, 200620 yr Willingham has been compared to Craig Wilson Hermida reminds me of Trot Nixon in countless ways Nice pick up on Cameron for Abercrombie
May 19, 200620 yr Mark Kotsay is white, last time I checked...and he's who I think(or at least hope) Abercrombie could turn into.
May 19, 200620 yr Willingham has been compared to Craig Wilson Hermida reminds me of Trot Nixon in countless ways Nice pick up on Cameron for Abercrombie The thing is Hammer is having a better year than Wilson so we shouldnt compare him someone who he is hitting better than. And Hermida has alot of similarities with J.D. Drew.
May 19, 200620 yr Are we not allowed to compare Abercrombie to a white man or something? Who said that? While you are being a smartass give me a comparison between Reggie and a white center fielder. hahahahahhah I would. But I don't watch the Marlins this year I just look at the boxscores. It's kind of how people want to compare Dirk and Morrison to Admin Bird...
May 19, 200620 yr 1. Hanley Ramirez - Felipe Lopez 2. Dan Uggla - Kurt Abbott 3. Miguel Cabrera - Albert Pujols 4. Josh Willingham - Nick Esasky 5. Jeremy Hermida - Clint Hurdle 6. Mike Jacobs - Eric Karros 7. Miguel Olivo - Ron Karkovice 8. Reggie Abercrombie - Brian Jordan Aguila - Rick Schu Amezaga - Rafael Landestoy Helms - Mike Blowers Reed - Endy Chavez Stokes - Dan Pasqua Treanor - Duffy Dyer Willis - Buehrle Johnson - Roy Halladay Olsen - Pete Falcone Pettit - Gary Nolan Pinto - AJ Burnett Mitre - Andy Hassler Messenger - Randy Moffitt Vargas - Jimmy Gobble Resop - Jorge Julio

It's kind of how people want to compare Dirk and Morrison to Admin Bird... Ok name a black 7 footer that can shoot the 3. It is the same reason people compare Nate Robinson to Spud Webb, no 5'8 white guys can dunk. And it's good to see you be loyal to your team.

Willy reminds me to a degree of Jony Gomes Kool Aid reminds more of Luis Matos but I would accept a Devon White comparison Dan Uggla is more like Chase Utley than Giles although Jeff Kent is not bad either Miguel Olivo is much more similar to Brad Ausmus Mike Jacobs is a Mike Sweeney clone Cabrera does remind me of Schmidt or even George Brett Hermida...who knows yet? Ramirez and Renteria could be twins
