ZfromCIS Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Morissette probably won’t stay a Short. Another kid with a legit hit tool though. He fills out more and we might be looking at somebody with Scott Rolen sequel potential or chase Utley if he plays 2nd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know though with different groups - the last FO had a hard on for hard throwing HS pitchers, often passing on other guys. Easier to sign and trade later I guess.

FishFan95 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Marlins are clearly targeting athletic guys up the middle with a high hit tool. Big departure from the high power high strikeout guys that we already have in the system. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big departure from the high power high strikeout guys that we already have in the system. It’s how it should’ve been done starting 4 years ago. We play in the biggest park in the MLB. Putting the ball in play is going to matter more that hitting it over the fence. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AeroFishOne Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Pretty satisfied so far but really only if we can get them signed. I’m normally not a fan of taking high school talent especially high school arms which thankfully we haven’t done yet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishFan95 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 The 4th round guy also has a hit tool at 55 per pipeline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishFan95 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 The 5th round guy, Brady Allen, is the first that I really don't like. His numbers in NCAA kind of mirror Isan Diaz. Good walks guy and will run into a few homers, but strikes out too much. Makes sense that he is the first pick with a below average projected hit tool. But by the 5th round, you start scraping towards the bottom of the barrel and I can't complain about the draft overall so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 I keep seeing all these notes about hitting/hitting for average. I want STRIKEOUTS. That's Marlins baseball - whiffing on strike 3 down the middle! Lol, seriously though - hopefully the hit tool works out for these guys - like someone said above, with a huge park, I'd rather see them spray balls all over the outfield than just trying to hit it out of the park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
