Posted April 10, 20168 yr comment_1544873 Short one with only four games (and 3 losses to boot) but its a Sunday tradition. Pick the "Best" Marlin of the week. Stats at many places if you need them.

April 10, 20168 yr comment_1544878 I'll say Phelps as he pitched well in our lone win following the rain delay. Link to comment https://www.marlinsbaseball.com/topic/72750-fish-of-the-week-april-5-10/?&do=findComment&comment=1544878 Share on other sites More sharing options...
April 10, 20168 yr comment_1544884 Mike Dunn, one week into the season and he hasn't blown any games or pissed any of us off.

April 10, 20168 yr comment_1544891 yelich had an incredible week. Dee's 2 CS should really exclude him and he really needs to stop trying to steal. Bravo to Phelps & TK though. Goats of the weak are Ozuna and the bullpen Link to comment https://www.marlinsbaseball.com/topic/72750-fish-of-the-week-april-5-10/?&do=findComment&comment=1544891 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goats of the weak are Ozuna and the bullpen He needs to work on his leads and when to run but he led the majors in steals last year. He isn't going to stop trying. Nor should he really.

He needs to work on his jumps, really. I haven't seen really but about 1 1/8 of games so far, but I'd be willing to bet he's still stealing by pushing off of his trail leg rather than crossing over with it. If he fixes that, he could probably steal 80+, no lie.

Dee stealing bases hurts the team more than it helps. The break even point is 70 to 75%. He was like 65% last year. I get that it's fun and exciting but it's actually hurting the team Link to comment https://www.marlinsbaseball.com/topic/72750-fish-of-the-week-april-5-10/?&do=findComment&comment=1544972 Share on other sites More sharing options...
April 11, 20168 yr comment_1544977 yelich had an incredible week. Dee's 2 CS should really exclude him and he really needs to stop trying to steal. Bravo to Phelps & TK though. Goats of the weak are Ozuna and the bullpen Felt like the CS from yesterday was a hit and run and a sign was missed by Yelich. Regardless it was an awful jump. I voted Dee Gordon but Yelich has looked great.

April 11, 20168 yr comment_1544980 Dee stealing bases hurts the team more than it helps. The break even point is 70 to 75%. He was like 65% last year. I get that it's fun and exciting but it's actually hurting the team It needs to be worked on. It can't be scrapped. It's too useful of an asset if you get it working properly. Last year he stole 58 bases in 78 attempts. That's 74 percent. Year before he stole 64 in 83 attempts that's 77 percent. It isn't hurting the team and it can help significantly more if he improves which there's no reason why he can't.

April 12, 20168 yr comment_1545609 He'd be a cool #2 hitter While I agree. I really like him in the 3 hole in front of Stanton. I think we should try to find someone to replace Ozuna with in the 2 that isn't named Yelich.
