He just didnt wow me like I was hoping for. Looked fairly average after the first time through the order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirFishFan Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 (edited) I wrote this in another thread but I’ll put it here as well since it’s better on this thread. In his freshman year of college in 2018 Max Meyer tied the University of Minnesota program record with 16 saves that season. Would anyone want to see Max as the Marlins new closer? Maybe in short spurts he could be truly dominate and could be the Marlins unexpected answer to having a reliable closer for the next few seasons. I know it won’t happen, but just a thought. 😂 Edited July 17, 2022 by SirFishFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Das Texan Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Let's be partially honest. Don set Meyer up for failure by not having Fortes start him*. *If Meyer didn't have success with Fortes in AAA then I withdraw this, and I havent looked it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His extension will be so well deserved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, not sure if Fortes was there, but there were two starts for Max where he pitched injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
