Marlins Designated Hitter. . .

i dunno ramp but i see it as common sense to start the veteran at lf than the rookie.

whats common sense to you may make little or no sense to someone else

Hands down Encarnancion but I think Lowell should be rested by letting him DH while Cabs goes back to 3rd base and Encarnacion back to RF.

I couldn't have said it any better myself. :thumbup the guy hasnt made an error since last year and you all want to sit him on the bench?

 

:plain

ya i know registeration doesnt really determine if ur a bandwagoner or not just a good measure. most ppl got on the bandwagon the last month of the season. ive been following the marlins since 96 closely. went to a couple games in 95 but didnt really follow them yet. :) ya and i just found about the site around may. i read but didnt register for a while.

Ramp,

 

:p =joking

 

you and your avatar magic are worth at least 12-15 wins this year alone

Hey guys, wanna hear a scary thought for DH for the opposing team? RAMON CASTRO! He's dangerous, even though it won't happen it would be interesting to see Castro in post season action with that power of his.

:plain Excuse you Ramp, did I not say I wanted Enc in RF?

Alright...Encarnacion needs to be starting in game 1 with the DH he's not the "odd man out" anymore and it would make no sense for him to DH (He is the worst choice for DH because of his Solid glove and rocket arm.)...It's pretty logical that Cabrera will DH and I strongly believe that is what will happen.

WHERE THE HELL IS CASTRO AND WHY ISNT HE PINCH HITTING?? i love that guy. i don't know why we havent been using him. screw Banks i want Castro

1 out isn't worth getting hurt for

JUST LIKE

you shouldn't hurt Bartman for stopping 1 out.

Go Marlins!

bc were not going 2 waste 3 players out of the most 25 players on cathers!but it would be good if u could get as many ppl. as u wanted.

Castro wasn't on the NLCS roster

but why? only so many spots on the Postseason roster. It allowed Mini Hulk to wipe the bags clean though.

i know about the 25 man roster. i just wasn't thinking along the lines of we already have 2 catchers so we can't put Castro on the roster.

As an AL fan I would put Conine as your DH. Being a DH takes a different type of mindset then a position player. You are only playing for four to five at bats per game other then that you are watching the game, it is like being a pitch hitter four times a game. Conine played some DH with O's so he should know the mind set and be somewhat comfortable with it. Also if you pitch hit later in the games you can't have your DH take the field or you lose the ability to have a DH and the pitcher has to bat, so you wouldn't want to put a player who can play more then one fielding position in that slot.

 

While Conine can play the field, I believe you don't lose too much D by making him the DH. Plus anything you lose will be gain by having him DHing over some one who isn't comfortable playing as a DH.

I have no idea who your backup catcher is but if I Rod wants a rest from behind the plate, he could DH. Not likey but is an option.
