canada-marlin24 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I wanted gaby traded all off season. It didn't take me long to realize last year that his approach and swing just won't bring long term success in the majors. I mean even when he gets a hit he looks bad.

Maybe in AAA, they'll change his swing and he'll come back, hit .380 the rest of the way with 24 homers and 99 RBI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dim Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Time to groom LoMo as the 1st baseman of the future. Need some help in the outfield though. With Bonifacio probably on the DL soon, that CF/LF combo is going to be brutal offensively (and defensively if Coghlan starts). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AeroFishOne Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 This will be a good test for Gaby. He hasnt been sent down after a becoming a starter in 2010. it's not like some of the guys that have been up and down over and over. I'm sure he can make the adjustments he needs and come back and perform well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricWiener Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Lomo at first. Platoon in left. Cogs up because the team needs an OF to cover for Bonifacio. Not a mystery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroncoBob27 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Apparently solano is coming up according to Rodriguez. If that is the kid that was so impressive in ST then it wouldn't surprise me. The FO seems to like turning IFers into OFers. But every place I read says it's going to be Cogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 this sucks. I know it had to be done, I just like Gaby & hate when a Marlin is struggling this bad. Hopefully Kearns/Dobbs/Petey can hold things together in left. CALL UP CHRISTIAN YELICH IMMEDIATELY. :banana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmeister Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 You guys forgetting about Dobbs? Why not Lomo in left, Petersen in center, and Dobbs in first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bret Hart Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Gaby Sanchez�@GabySanchez15 I want to thank everyone for your support. I'll be back and better then ever. At the first day of AAA, Gaby hit 2-run double. (1-for-3) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrchainsaw Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Wonder if Solano will get any starts at 2B while Omar is out. Couldn't possibly be worse than having Murphy there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny Ramos Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Just FYI, Gabby had 35 popup outs (foul/infield/shallow outfield) in 131 AB's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beetle Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Leon Medical is probably pulling their hair out right now -- they scratched the Ozzie bobblehead giveaway on May 30th and replaced it with Gaby Sanchez t-shirts. Awesome timing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Leon Medical is probably pulling their hair out right now -- they scratched the Ozzie bobblehead giveaway on May 30th and replaced it with Gaby Sanchez t-shirts. Awesome timing! Ouch. So I'm guessing they're gonna change it a second time? Gaby is most definitely gonna be called up again, but it'll seem extremely weird to have a t-shirt giveaway day when the player on the t-shirt is currently in the minors for hitting below .200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lo Viste Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Byan Lehair anyone? Dude is mashing right handed pitching and he can play 1B or LF. Platoon him with Gaby at 1st? Seeing as Gaby has historically hit better against lefties. Or just put him in left and keep LoMo at 1st, that gives us two quality lefties in a lineup that lacks left handed power. He is cheap and not arbitration elgible until 2015 so even if he doesn't continue to hit this well he can always be a quality left handed bat off the bench and spot starter. I don't know what the Cubs would want for him seeing as he is a 29 year old "prospect," but they are going to promote Rizzo at some point this year and I'm guessing it's sooner rather then later.
