June 6, 201313 yr Solid pick and I see him like a Michael Young type player. Guy who can hit for very high average, good on base with some power. And I say Michael Young becuase he is a guy that would like 10-15 home runs yet drive in 90-100. A true hitter.
June 6, 201313 yr nice pick! we actually have a real 3b in the system now!!! Now I wonder if we can actually sign him.....
June 6, 201313 yr lol twitter is having a field day with this (not cause Moran was a bad pick, but cause we're the marlins)
June 7, 201313 yr This is a great pick. I can't believe the Indians passed up on him That's my biggest thing. I was almost positive he wouldn't get passed Cleveland. Marlins have had some really nice draft picks of late.
June 7, 201313 yr Let's hope he pans out because the Marlins really need a third baseman. He's already a huge upgrade over anything we got (which is basically nothing)
June 7, 201313 yr nice pick! we actually have a real 3b in the system now!!! Now I wonder if we can actually sign him..... Actually his best quality is his signability,,,He has a very polished bat excellent eye! K/BB rate is just astonishing He hits to all fields He should be ML ready very quickly! His glove does need work but he has a very strong arm

He is expected to develop into 20-25 HR hitter,maybe more I doubt the Marlins ever expected for him to be available with the 6th pick
June 7, 201313 yr Skip the Minors and slot him at third tomorrow night. He needs to beefcake first6'3 215, beefcake enough.
June 7, 201313 yr Skip the Minors and slot him at third tomorrow night. He needs to beefcake first6'3 215, beefcake enough. He has a ML ready body however needs improving his footwork at 3rd base
June 7, 201313 yr Yelich, Stanton, Moran, Ozuna in the same lineup sometime next year. *drools* And perennial All-Star future Hall of Fame second baseman Donovan Solano. /sarcasm
June 7, 201313 yr Yelich, Stanton, Moran, Ozuna in the same lineup sometime next year. *drools* Dont forget Dietrich

June 7, 201313 yr Also of note is the implications this pick will have on any Stanton trade... huge break by the fish to get this guy
June 7, 201313 yr Yelich, Stanton, Moran, Ozuna in the same lineup sometime next year. *drools* Dont forget DietrichAnd Morrison!
June 7, 201313 yr I already love how he talks about his hitting approach. also he'll be playing tomorrow at 1:00 on ESPN2, I'll be tuning in.
June 7, 201313 yr Author And in fact Moran's brother Brian is at AAA with Seattle and is a relief with some pretty damn good numbers. He has 49 strikeouts in 30.1 innings this year. 303 strikeouts in 255.2 innings in his career with a 2.89 ERA. sounds like a closer.
