You know what, Fritz?
I think Hermida belongs in the top 50.
If Lowell's a consensus top 10 Marlin, Hermida's career "percentage" stats and not volume stats place him easily in the top 50.
Just some numbers to think about (because I had no clue it was this close):
Fan Favorite Mike Lowell: Marlins OPS .801 (11th all time)
Fan Pariah Jeremy Hermida: Marlins OPS .774 (12th all time)
Fan Favorite Jeff Conine: Marlins SLG: .455 (11th all time)
Fan Pariah Jeremy Hermida: Marlins SLG: .429 (13th all time)
Fan Favorite Mike Lowell: Marlins OBP: .339 (15th all time)
Fan Pariah Jeremy Hermida: Marlins OBP: .346 (12th all time)
Fan Favorite Mike Lowell: Marlins AVG: .272 (12th all time)
Fan Pariah Jeremy Hermida: Marlins AVG: .266 (14th all time)
I'm going to say Hermida, and just the common perception of Hermida, really disguise the fact we've got a solidly average big leaguer on our hands. He's top 50, sorry Quilvio .
