June 7, 201313 yr He has a pretty good size and can maybe gain about 15 pounds. I think he should be a good power man. We need a power batter other then Stanton. What about Solano?!??!
June 7, 201313 yr Who cares? He will still be traded a few years down the road, does anyone remember a guy named Miguel Cabrera?
June 7, 201313 yr BUT GREAT PICK! I mean it was a absolute no-brainer pick. It was BPA and filled a huge need. The only thing I credit the FO for is not messing it up and going with someone else.

June 7, 201313 yr Solid pick, but the last First Rounder from North Carolina we had left a bad taste in my mouth. Cautiously optimistic Moran will be able to contribute soon.
June 7, 201313 yr He will be with the Marlins this September. Book it. He will be with the Blue Jays in 2018. Book it.
June 7, 201313 yr Marlins sign and trade Moran to the Brewers for future hall of famer Aramis Ramirez. What??? Link????
June 7, 201313 yr Poor Coghlan. The man without a position. They stick him in LF, then CF and now Stanton-Ozuna-Yelich plus Marisnik and Ruggiano probably mean there is no future OF spot left for him. Then, they announce he will be taking ground balls at 3B -- and promptly draft a guy who will probably be the 3B of the future and may well be on the 25-man in a matter of months. He's also worked at 1B (but not played there.) Apparently they think he can play anywhere but C or SS, but he doesn't seem to hit well unless he's getting consistent ABs, so future bench utility guy probably doesn't work out. He needs Ruggiano to be traded or failure by Morrison or Dietrich (or someone) to avoid becoming probable trade bait about 6 weeks from now. One of those guys is bound to fail. It's not really a big deal

It's not really a big deal I don't feel bad for Coghlan yet. While his current run is encouraging, it's still only 125 ABs with the last 60-75 being the good ones.
June 7, 201313 yr Marlins just signed Moran. About to be announced. I didn't think he could sign until after the CWS? Saw he would start with Greensboro when signed

June 7, 201313 yr Great Pick for the Fish. ACC Player of the Year. 86 RBI's is a UNC Single Season Record. .478 OBP ranks 23rd in the Nation. The only thing I wish he had was more Power. But this should solve our problem at 3rd base. I'm intrigued to see what the 2014 Marlins will look like. How will Yelich do? Will Stanton still be here? Will Moran be on the Opening Day Roster? Will the Marlins get a new catcher? What about Ricky and Lomo, will they be traded? Needless to say, I'm intrigued to see how the Marlins will look like in 2014.

June 7, 201313 yr Surprised no one has brought this up yet... but when Selig announced Moran as our pick, didn't anyone else notice the Toronto and Detroit representatives high-fiving in the background?
