I see now it is pitcher Justin Miller.

 

 

 

Anyone else know who has had that particular number?

if so, have you even noticed if either pitcher has used one of Miguel Cabrera's Zinger bats?

 

 

Please let me know.

 

 

 

Thanks.

You seem to have had too much to drink, let me follow you home.

According to the Media Guide, Travis Sith wore it in 05 and Dean Treanor wore it in 06. Of course D. Treanor joins the team at the end of every year and I don't ever believe he's held any official capacity with the Major League team?!?

:lol wtf

They are legit questions. I'd prefer the wiseguys remain quiet.

 

 

I am researching Miguel Cabrera bats and have seen several with the #32 written on the barrel. We all know Miggy has only worn #20 and #24.

 

The only Florida players to wear # 32 from 05 to 07 have been pitchers Travis Smith (2005) and Justin Miller (2007).

 

 

Connecting the dots?

 

 

I figured, where else to find out odd tidbits of Marlins trivia than fom a diehard fan board. I figured on the diehards, I wasn't looking for the blowhards.

Couple ideas:

 

-It could be a model number

-It could be a number with history for Miggy.

 

I doubt Miller and Smith even have specific bats.

Thanks for the reply.

 

 

I tried to think of the same scenerios. Definately not a model number, as it's in white out "in" the cupped ended of the barrel and anothe rbat I saw it in white out on the bat knob.

 

I figured that maybe one of the pitchers, for whatever reason had the chance to see an AB and perhaps was given the bat by Miggy to use and they "adopted" it and numbered it.

 

I know Miggy has a habit of marking his bat with either black or silver marker...he wrotes his #24 in the cupped barrel.

# 32 could be a player miggy admired when he was a kid

Could have been, but unlikely.

 

 

I just used to numbers on bat handles and bat barrels being there to identify who's bat it is in the clubhouse and the bat rack.

Does he use bats with different weights? 32 oz. bat for when his shoulder is bothering him and he needs a lighter bat, 34 oz when he feels just fine?

 

Just a thought.

They don't put weight numbers there. It's an interesting question. Definetly trivia.

If its on the barrel, that's likely a model number. Players mark up the hollow end, or the bottom of the knob for identification purposes.

Thank you for the last few posts, good stuff.

 

 

I have heard the "weight" suggestion twice now in my search. That very well may be the answer...not sure?

 

 

It both cases I have seen recently, "32" was clearly written on the very top end of the bat barrel (in the cupped end). It appears to be written in whiteout.

 

It just very well may be that this is a weight indicator and nothing more.

 

 

I would have to contact Zinger and see which size bats he has prdered from them.

 

 

Thanks and keep the great responses coming.

Didn't John Burkett wear 32? Or was that 33?
