February 26, 201214 yr Greg Dobbs is a believer. http://miamiherald.typepad.com/fish_bytes/2012/02/dobbs-says-marlins-are-team-to-beat.html
February 27, 201214 yr If I'm not mistaken, house elves can't lie so I feel good about this statement.
February 27, 201214 yr The only way they're the team to beat is if Dobbs doesn't play very much Dobbs was one of the most consistently good guys last year
February 27, 201214 yr The only way they're the team to beat is if Dobbs doesn't play very much Dobbs was one of the most consistently good guys last year Dobbs is a great role player, but I don't know how you can say an everyday 3B with a .701 OPS is any kind of good. He's not the kind of player you want to give 400 ab's to like we did last year...

He's not the kind of player you want to give 400 ab's to like we did last year... He wasn't an everyday third basemen even though he put up high AB's .It's kind of unfair to paint Dobbs in such a poor picture when he was one of the brights spots of the year., thats what i was impying. Fanofthefish might not intended it to sound way but that's the way I took it. Nowthat I re-read it, he might be impyling we are in a poor position if he has to play everyday, due to injuries. Whatever the case may be, If the team plays anything like it did the past year, god forbid, I would definately take Dobbs performance from last season. I would much rather have his bat off the bench, as he was quite good off the bench, more so then as a starter. I'm not a pimpig him out to be our starting 3rd base by any means.
February 27, 201214 yr I agree he did great at what he did last year, but if the Marlins are to be contenders this season, his role will need to be as a pinch hitter and an occasional starter
