I knew he wasn't an outfielder by trade but Sanchez in left would be an even worse option. Like I said it's pretty clear with the way that he has played this year that he is part of their future, but management decided to give his PA's to someone else for some reason. Cameron and Wise are great, but getting LoMo those at bats would of been the better option IMO.
    Now I get what you are saying. I agree 100%. There is no reason to send Morrison down. The Marlins aren't competing, so their best bet is to keep giving Morrison at-bats and let him work through it. There has to be something at play behind the scenes.

      LoMo, Bourn, Constanza.

      Outfield of the future.

        Reading between the lines, the kid has an attitude problem, and they are sending him a message.

        So he rides the bus for a few weeks...he'll be back September 1. It won't kill him to be humbled a bit.

          He doesn't have an attitude problem, the owner has a "coddling Hanley Ramirez" problem and the other players rightfully don't like it.


          Morrison wasn't the only one who had an issue with it. Another, Wes Helms, was sent packing yesterday as well.

            I think Morrison would be smarter to keep his opinions in house.

            Hanley can't even play anymore, plus he's not a kid at this point so his half effort isn't enough to get him by. I'm not sure why the owner is so loyal, I'm pretty sure larry was saying the local opinion on Hanley is negative anyway.

              Agreed, but you can't help but think he's justified in thinking his organization is a joke.
