RIP16 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Most improved or Stanton? Marlins Pitcher of Year? Lock him up! 15 year/400 million? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taiwanmarlin Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Yea,I agreed he had the most improvements and Stanton just reached his potential,and for the pitcher of the year he was better than Straily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 He's been good. Always liked him. Imagine if we had castillo still. We would had have 2 good young starters. Three if peters continue to be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIP16 Posted September 9, 2017 Author Share Posted September 9, 2017 What I really like with Urenas improvement this year is his ability to withstand rallies and not panic/implode. In past he would be prone to implosions, 5, 6, even 7 run innings and hes limited the damage to 3 runs tops in his worst innings this year. I noticed he doesnt cave in either by laying pitches over the plate. Either when the ump doesnt give him corner pitches or he gets in trouble/walks batters. He stays the course and trusts his command. Really enjoy watching him get more and more confident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obviously best not to get in those jams in the first place but he's shown the ability to consistently get out of them more often than not unlike most of our pitchers. I think he has the ability to be a very good #3 - aka our staff ace next season and the foreseeable future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SongInTheAir Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Urena completely proved me wrong. I honestly thought he was one of the worst pitchers on a major league roster, but he made a lot of improvements and has become a solid average #4 starter. Props to @pollythewog and a few others on here (not homers who see it in everyone in a Marlins uniform) for recognizing Ureña's potential when I couldn't see it.

Das Texan Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Urena has proven to be a damn good pitcher. Hope its not a one year thing, but Marlins might actually have a good long term piece for their rotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
