December 23, 201510 yr Author oh god i didnt realize this guy was a starter. He's so going to start at least 5 games this season
December 23, 201510 yr Author here's his fangraphs report before his 2015 disaster. Really hope marlins convert him to a RP 7. Tim Berry, LHP Video: Berry will develop alongside Davies in Triple-A next year and some in the org prefer Berry’s upside over Davies’ certainty. On the right day, Berry will show three above average to plus pitches, but Berry has a very slight 6’3 build and his arm speed will vary day-to day. On most days, Berry has three solid average pitches: a fastball that sits 89-91 and hits 94 at times along with a curveball that’s inconsistent but still ahead of his changeup. In short stints out of the bullpen, Berry’s stuff is firmer and more consistent, with one scout saying he looked like Red Sox LHP Henry Owens. The durability/consistency questions could shift Berry to the pen eventually, with a chance he follows the career path of Yankees LHPAndrew Miller; multiple teams have asked about Berry this offseason.
December 23, 201510 yr Seems like a guy worth taking a chance on. IN BENEDICT WE TRUST! Or is the honeymoon phase over?
December 23, 201510 yr Author Seems like a guy worth taking a chance on. IN BENEDICT WE TRUST! Or is the honeymoon phase over? yeah i agree actually. I looked at his stats and they were so bad (how can you have a 7.5 era as a starter in AA) I just assumed he was a RP. Seems like there might be something there to convert into a lefty RP
December 23, 201510 yr He's projected to have a career like Andrew Miller! That means he'll actually become an excellent and highly paid back of the bullpen major leaguer.... but will first spend several disappointing seasons with the Marlins!

December 24, 201510 yr The Marlins are trying to re-create "Spahn and Sain; then pray for rain." but they only have Jose and nothing else. We can't even make a cute rhyme.

December 24, 201510 yr We are all too stupid to get Michael Hill's grand plan for the Marlins, folks.
