Retro_Marlins25 Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Maybin in the two spot will not work.He's going to strike out alot, have a mediocre batting average and decent OBP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iowa Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Coghlan batted .320. why would they move him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince of Saxe-Meiningen Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 I'm still holding out a little hope that Nick Johnson might be back. I wish he was back to but his reputation of "The man of glass" wasn't excatly shattered this year. I think he missed more games than he played for us. We can't have that, especially as thin as our organization is because of Loria. Our bench has to have productive players or we are screwed like this year.

Wild Card Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 1. Coghlan 2B 2. Maybin CF 3. Ramirez SS 4. Cantu 3B 5. Morrison LF 6. Ross RF 7. Baker C 8. Sanchez 1B That's the lineup I'd like to see, unless we can somehow afford Johnson. I really don't want to hand Sanchez a job again, make him earn it. And I can't imagine this team without Morrison in the lineup very, very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your opinions on Emilio Bonifacio becoming the next Luis Castillo sure did change since your disappearing act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarlinsLou Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Playoffs?.I think not. Potentially contending next year is going to have absolutely nothing to do with the position players. If Johnson pitches like 2009, Ricky like second half of 2009/2008, and the cumulation of Volstad, West, Miller, Anibal, and whoever can take a step forward into low 4.00 eravilles over a significant amount of innings, this team will be very very good. It's all about the pitching. The bats are going to hit enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bret Hart Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I think our lineup key point is Boni... (Boni was horrilbe as a 3b, so he could make a spot of 2b or super backup.) A. If we put Boni on 2b (as no.8), Coghlan keep putting on LF. And we'll confirm 'Coghlan-Maybin-Ross' outfield depth. (speedy lineup, but still questionable for Boni can make it through one season long. Need a backup middle infielder.) B. we put Coghlan on 2b, then Boni moves to if/of backup roll. Need an additional conner outfielder. (maybe Morrison or BC or De Aza etc.) (1) If we decide putting Morrison on LF, we need Gaby Sanchez or another conner infielder. (2) If we put FA guy (not Morrison) on LF, Morrison and Gaby or another conner infielder will fight for regular 1b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nny Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I actually do wonder about Brian Giles as a cheap pick up. I mean, the market for him will be horrible. He'll be a 39 year old coming off a season where he was worse than Emilio Bonifacio, where he's defense took a big fall, coming off an injury to a knee he's already had surgery on, and he's market took a huge crash last season. He's going to get, what, 1 mil, maybe some incentives? And that's probably as a bench bat for someone like Boston, where as he'd have a chance to start here. He's basically a Nick Johnson clone, and could replicate what NJ would give us for a lot lot cheaper. However, he's also a 39 year old coming off a season where he was worse than Emilio Bonifacio, he's defense took a huge fall, and he's coming of an injury to a knee he's already had surgery on.

BosnianBaller_ Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 i give us a small chance of like 2% of keeping nick johnson unless other teams are really afraid of his past injuries. and i just think it would be retarded to move coghlan from leadoff since he's done so well to get on base and maybin could cause problems for the opposition with his speed to run out bunts. people might think this lineup is stupid but i personally like it. LF - Coghlan CF - Maybin SS - Hanley 3B - Cantu C - Baker RF - Ross 1B - Morrison (i think he'll destroy the ball in spring training) 2B - Bonifacio (unless we find a cheap better option at 2nd) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
