TheMarlinsProject Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 We suck at hitting. He sucks at coaching hitting. Holdover from our Yankee regime. Fire him and hire someone who knows how to hit and/or coach how to hit. If he was a doctor, he's be facing multiple malpractice suits.

Either way, he's not the only one to blame. Five hitting coaches! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMarlinsProject Posted July 24, 2022 Author Share Posted July 24, 2022 One walk tonight and it was the guy they called up . I'm sure we can fix that, lol. For the love of everything why is our hitting coach still our hitting coach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hovertical Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 only thing i can think of is that the season is lost and his contract expires end of season and Brucey doesn't to pay the extra money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erick Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 LeBlanc, who they took forever to promote, has had a solid start so far. How long before Marcus Thames ruins him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be completely fair a lot of guys have good starts to their career until the league adjusts to them. Got to wait and see how they adjust back before declaring them a solid player. That said, Thames will also be part of that process (unless he's gone at seasons end as I think along with Don) so yeah he won't ruin him necessarily but he won't help him much either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had a greenish border going vertically on one side i think. I can remember it being listed in Tuff Stuff magazine as one of the "hot" cards to find. Edit: I guess the Fleer one I'm thinking of is from 1992 and his rookie card is from 1991 so maybe I never did find it? No idea.

Valid Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 (edited) Let's be real here: it doesn't matter who you have as your hitting coach if virtually your entire roster sucks at hitting. Not saying we can't find someone better than Thames, but the real problem is the fact that the Marlins have a roster full of guys who can't hit.
