Do the Marlins have the dumbest hitters in baseball?

Featured Replies

No one walks.

No one grinds at bats.

Everyone swings at tons of pitches outside the strike zone.

No one seems to have a plan except ME SWING REAL HARD.  ME HIT THE BALL REAL FAR.

Fun watching the Mets have 30 minutes at the plate and the Marlins last maybe three minutes.

It's obvious our bats do not stack up against really good clubs.  It's delusional to think this team will get a Wild Card slot as it stands right now,  And you know Kim hasn't proven she is capable of getting impact talent or that Sherman will spend money.  

Marcus Thames doing a solid job.

Another ex-Yankee.

The most comical of the approaches is Soler. He's an enormous human with so much natural pop he can hit it out of the ballpark with one hand but swings out of his shoes behind in the count with two strikes. 

I did not like the Garcia signing, but he has certainly been worse than I thought he was gonna be. Sallings was never a good hitter, but he was never this bad for Pittsburgh. Meanwhile, Alfaro leaves here and figures things out. He's really lifting the ball and Garcia is having a career worst ground ball rate. Also, we do especially bad vs mediocre pitchers. It would be one thing if we were absolute trash vs all pitchers, but just to the Erick Fedde's of this world. I think we have a coaching issue.

Our hitting instructors up and down the system suck

Agreed. Need a total revamp.

Remember this is the same team that thought hiring Barry bonds was a good idea.

i wasnt opposed to it.  he'd never coached before so it wasn't the worst idea to try it out.  not everything will be a crazy success.  key is cutting bait when you need to - and they did with him so i don't count that as a negative.

To be fair, that was in 2016. How many FO personnel from 2016 are still with the Marlins now?

1 run in 3 games.  At least fire the fucking hitting coach.

7 runs total in the last 8 games (if you throw out the Manfred rule innings shit)
