Update: LoMo Filed a Grievance Against Marlins

[Party]

Nope.

I should start charging for a spoonful of Amezaga instead of offering free samples.

[Fritz]

We can spoon with Amezaga?!

You could get a scoop or lick the cone too.

MLB Network joining in on the same sentiments about LoMo that John Buck spoke about. Should be known for how good of a ball player you are/can be than the fact you tweet and are outspoken.

Lomo's OPS from June 1 on was .693, 2nd worst on the team. And the only player worse went to an all star game in the intervening months and isn't a total douchebag.

That's for the people who have been saying "He's our 3rd best player!"

He was our best play for a month and a half. He's been dogshit ever since, and unlike Gaby, he can't keep his mouth closed.

So he is kind of like Chris Coghlan but extra annoying

ummmm......the entire team has been dogshit since then. you could use the same argument for bout 90% of the roster


doesn't change the fact that he's still top 4 in almost every offensive category and in most cases top 3 and that "terrible" two months still makes him 2nd on team in ops

[MiamiHomer]

But he's been terrible recently and he has done stupid things which then validates the demotion...

ummmm....

It hasn't. Infante, Buck, Hanley, Stanton, and Bonifacio all had .750+ OPSes or better from June 1 on.

[....J....]

idk what ur definition of dogshit is but 25-43 since June 1 is certainly in the ballpark

and out of the 5 players u mentioned only Stanton has been better for the year.

the point is lomo was sent down for his mouth not his production. if the marlins weren't a bazillion games back lomo is still here regardless of who he's "offended"

Logan Morrison is expected to be in uniform today with the Class AAA New Orleans Zephyrs after arriving in The Big Easy late last night.

LoMo, optioned by the Marlins late Saturday, is allowed to report as late as Wednesday, under baseball rules. But his arrival last night was an encouraging sign for Zephyrs Manager Greg Norton.


Tarrik Brock, the Marlins’ minor league outfield coach, is in New Orleans ready to work with Logan on his defense. Remember: Logan is still a little more than a year removed from playing first base in the minors most of his career before debuting for the Marlins last season in left field.

Marlins manager Jack McKeon has talked with reporters about the dangers of judging a player on a fast start so early in the season. Pitchers are still getting up to speed in April and May.

That might play into Logan’s case.

As Marlins radio man Glenn Geffner pointed out recently on a broadcast, LoMo was hitting .330 with a .424 OBP on May 27 — 28 games into his season).

In 67 games since, he was hitting .215 with a .284 OBP, his walk rate way down and his strikeout rate way up. Geffner pointed out that those AVG and OBP figures are both lower than Chris Coghlan’s season totals at the time he was sent out (.230/.296 in 65 games, nearly the exact same number).

My guess is Logan will play all out with New Orleans — and not just to prove the Marlins wrong for demoting him.

LoMo has been a very bad player for the last few months. He was sent down for a combination of that and his yapper.

If he was still crushing the ball, he'd still be up here.

[Beef]

If we weren't a bazillion games back, lomo being here wouldn't help us not be a bazillion games back.

But also, good points all around. Any player on a team of crappy logan morrison's that goes 25-43 is also dogshit.

[Bobbob1313]

We've been bad for a variety of reasons. The offensive production of those 5 players when healthy has certainly not been one.

Health has been the biggest factor, alone with getting terrible production from our 1B and LF. Lomo is one of those, and unlike the 1B, he can't shut the fuck up for 5 minutes.
