Line-Up
1. Cameron Maybin CF
2. John Baker C
3. Hanley Ramirez SS
4. Jorge Cantu 1B
5. Dan Uggla 2B
6. Jeremy Hermida LF
7. Cody Ross RF
8 Dallas McPherson 3B
This is Cameron Maybins year. You will see why he was a super prospect in Detroit and he will be a hell of a player this year. Hanley Ramirez is unvelievable and the best player in the MLB. Jorge Cantu has surprised everyone the past couple of years and is serviceable. But the guy the Marlins should be stoked about is Dallas McPherson. Once heralded as the best prospect in the MLB, but ended up to be terrible. Myself and many other believe this will be the year he explodes.
Rotation:
1. Ricky Nolasco RH
2. Josh Johnson RH
3. Chris Volstad RH
4. Andrew Miller LH
5. Anibal Sanchez RH
Closer Matt Lindstrom RH
Young and up and coming rotation. Josh Johnson is the key because not only does he smoke a pack of cigarettes a day, but he is on watch for breaking out. Andrew Miller and Anibal Sanchez are the best 4-5 pitchers in the league. This is the Marlins year.
Prospects:
1. Mike Stanton
OF, FLA (#42 overall)
A high-school outfielder drafted 76th overall in 2007, Stanton went on to destroy the Sally League in 2008, raking at a .293/.381/.611 clip while finishing second in home runs (39) and third in RBIs (97).
2. Logan Morrison
1B, FLA (#75 overall)
One of the last draft-and follow picks in baseball, hulking Logan Morrison is a graduate of Albert Pujol's old community college in Missouri. With a quick inside-out swing and plus power.
Overall:
The Marlins will win the NL East. They have the hitting and the pitching. They are young, but when have the Marlins never been young. Expect super years from Josh Johnson, Dallas McPherson and Cameron Maybin. Do not take the Marlins lightly Phillie and Mets fans.
97-65
