Posted November 30, 201013 yr comment_1228955 A free agent two time All Star with some lefthanded power. Marlins could use some lefty pop in the outfield if he can come back to form. Seems like an inexpensive experiment to me. Link to comment https://www.marlinsbaseball.com/topic/65763-brad-hawpe/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 30, 201013 yr comment_1228956 Don't really know how inexpensive he'll be. He had a down year last season, but im sure he's looking for at least a 3 year deal somewhere Link to comment https://www.marlinsbaseball.com/topic/65763-brad-hawpe/?&do=findComment&comment=1228956 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 30, 201013 yr comment_1228957 He's only played RF, and Stanton will play every day. Also, he's pretty much the worst fielder of all time. Link to comment https://www.marlinsbaseball.com/topic/65763-brad-hawpe/?&do=findComment&comment=1228957 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawpe has limited range and a tremendous arm. Link to comment https://www.marlinsbaseball.com/topic/65763-brad-hawpe/?&do=findComment&comment=1228958 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 30, 201013 yr comment_1228959 He's only played RF, and Stanton will play every day. Also, he's pretty much the worst fielder of all time.   No, you saw that last season in left field for the Marlins last season. Hawpe has limited range and a tremendous arm. Coghlan is a better defensive outfielder than Hawpe. Brad is Manny terrible. It's a special kind of terrible. And Hawpe would be amazing if he would accept a bench 4th outfielder role just to smash against right handers, but he's going to want to play a lot more and will get a good DH type gig in the American League. Plus, the Marlins really need an option that can help in CENTER FIELD. This isn't a very good fit.

November 30, 201013 yr comment_1228960 I don't know if Kotsay can man CF anymore but I think he would be a nice, cheap LH option off the bench that can play both corner OF spots as well as 1B and is a career .318 pinch hitter. C Baker, 1B/3B Helms, 1B/OF Kotsay, UT Bonifacio, 2B/SS Murphy would be a pretty solid bench, IMO.
