LoMo to AAA, Helms Released

Featured Replies

Running to Walgreens. Gonna make a sign in support of Logan Morrison for tomorrow's game.

 

 

You should put "quit acting like a dumbass" on your sign.

 

In response to which way?

 

His comments about his demotion are extremely ignorant.

 

1. If the team feels like demoting him, it's their right to do that.

2. His production has been absolute garbage for months now. As a matter of fact, if you take away April, I'm absolutely positive he's put up a healthy negative WAR since then.

 

Then he's saying that Wes was released for the same reason; yeah, Wes was released because he sucks (finally) just like he's (Morrison) sucked for months now.

 

And if it has to do with Hanley, good. He and his buddy, Wes, have thrown jabs at Hanley this year, at times for no reason.

It seems more and more likely that LoMo and Helms were being really outspoken about Hanley in the clubhouse and management really didn't like it.

I'll post this again:

 

LoMo's OBP by month: .424, .390, .277, .272, .335

It's "Get rid of the white guys hitting under .250 that take cheapshots in the media against the guy who outplays them" night.

 

It doesn't help when Lomo gets on Hanley and gets benched by Jack for not working hard enough like 3 days later.

Yeah I'm not getting the non production comment. We have a list of players that have struggled for longer periods with lower numbers during the year.

 

To much damn drama and hypocrisy on this team and some on this board Lomo and Wes have never been right for there comments but Hanley is allowed to do his act? Christ come on. You can like or hate these players but atleast look at it with equal shaded glasses.

Thank god somebody posted these numbers.

 

Morrison, THIS IS WHY YOU GOT SENT DOWN. Stop thinking the Marlins organization has a personal vendetta against you in your quest to hate on Hanley.

Hanley's #'s have been trending upward.

 

Also, there are certain players who can't be sent down. This isn't hypocrisy; it's the financial aspect of the sport. If Lomo had gotten to the point in his career of making 11 million dollars per year, he wouldn't have been sent down. That's not the case. He has options, so he was sent down for being horrible. It happens.

 

Logan Morrison is also the worst defensive player on this team, for what it's worth. Maybe they want him to work on that in the minors.

 

Either way, his job is to be a professional baseball player. When Hanley bitches to the media, people talk about him like he's a cancerous personality.

Logan Morrison is doing the same sh*t. Accept your demotion and try to get better; he's not the first player who's ever been demoted.

What act? Jack goes in the media and says Hanley has been working hard and such, says Lomo has to learn to start working on "focusing in baseball", and then Lomo goes and takes another cheapshot at Hanley.

 

Yeah, Hanley did that stupid sh*t last year and the board exploded with all of us wanting to murder him. On top of that, the amount of love Lomo got before the "sh*t on #2" tour was ridiculous, with almost everyone in Team Lomo. Some of us are just sick of him playing like sh*t while being a dick in the media to his teammate.

All for standing up for whats right and crap. Love that LoMo wants to lead but he also needs to realize he's a rookie and keep his mouth shut at times. Play a year at least then lay into guys.

 

I bet this had to do with Hanley going on the DL.

It seems more and more likely that LoMo and Helms were being really outspoken about Hanley in the clubhouse and management really didn't like it.

 

 

Loria and Samson didn't like it. Loria would stick up for Hanley if he pulled an Urbina in the offseason. No matter how much he alienates every non spanish speaking teammate, Loria seems to always defend him.

 

I love when Hanley is putting up awesome numbers, but it seems like we always have one of these "Days of Our Lives" Marlins edition since 2008, and they all have to do with Hanley in some way.

 

LoMo and Helms both talk too much no doubt, but I'm tired of having to deal with all these soap opera stories that deal with Hanley every season. It's annoying.

Yeah, it's funny how those who constantly criticize Hanley's personality want to ignore Jack McKeon's comments about his work ethic.

 

On the other hand, McKeon has benched Morrison in the past (when he did it to Hanley on the first day though, everybody noticed), and he's said that Morrison has to focus more.

 

He calls Morrison "Twitter" because of his addiction to the site. Morrison even responded to that by saying that he won't stop using Twitter.

 

If anything, he's caused a lot more problems with his loud mouth than Hanley has this year.

Isn't it weird that the non-Spanish speaking media reports that Hanley alienates the non-Spanish speaking players? Have you ever heard Infante, Gaby, Ani, Ricky, Boni, et. at. sh*t on Hanley? So, who is alienating who?

either way. if its about performance with lomo then send gaby down too cuz hes done f*** all in the past month and a half.

 

 

There's no better option at 1B.

The only other reason I can think of is that his leg isn't 100% and they decided to send him down for a bit to take it easy on it as opposed to putting him on the DL.

 

 

That's not allowed, and with what Coghlan pulled you can bet that if that was really the problem, Lomo would be filing a grievance.

Didn't Pujols say something to the effect of "don't change. You're changing." I think he said it in Spanish though. It was a couple years ago.

Lomo has been bad for the last 3 months. Lomo was arguably the worst player on the team during the Marlins Can't Win Tour in June.

Well, I'm a Morrison fan. I understand that he was not putting up the greatest #s in the world. But hell, the Marlins have put up with players that have had worse numbers for a longer period of time in the past. And right now, we're not even in contention. And there it's not like LoMo is blocking some prospect who we're all dying to see play in the Bigs.

 

A .251/.321/.468 (1.3 oWAR) line is average/solid. His defense has been pretty bad in the OF, no way getting around that. But I don't think going to the minors is going to help him vastly improve his OF ability. That seems more like a job that will get done in the offseason.

 

I'm just interested in what he thinks the reason is behind his demotion. And the fact that he thinks he and Helms were demoted (released) for the same reason is pretty interesting. I mean, I think Helms shouldn't be playing Major League Baseball just like the rest of you, but was his strikeout today really the final straw? I was willing to bet he would have stayed the rest of the season.

 

Oh well. I really hope this doesn't turn into a huge distraction. Though a .500 record this season is slowly slipping out of reach...
