You did say one time that Solano does not belong on a big league roster. Just the other day, you said you'd rather watch Placido Polanco play every day. I really don't get why you dislike Solano so much. I get it in a way, but we've had a bunch of guys like him on the roster this year and you've said a lot less about those guys.

Most of those other guys werent shoehorned into the lineup come hell or high water.
It took Solano getting hurt before he was removed from the lineup the first time despite being among the worst hitters in the game to that point and playing poor defense.Amy Adams, AKA Cinnamon MuffLogan Morrison: "If baseball didn't exist, I would probably be ... like a curler. Or a hairstylist."

He went on a weird little hot streak over the next 6 games before getting hurt(.907 OPS in 26 ABs, 4 multi hit games) to kind of corrupt the #s.Amy Adams, AKA Cinnamon MuffLogan Morrison: "If baseball didn't exist, I would probably be ... like a curler. Or a hairstylist."

20% of his season sample size at the time is IRRELEVANT GUYS
The guy who rarely hits, doesnt draw BBs, and has no power, which is what his MiLB career suggests, or the guy from that random sampling of 6 games.

He also seems to be, at worst, league average defensively at 2B. In this thread, you've called him poor and in the past you've called him a butcher.

No range either.

He is a bench player at best on an awful team. Even a team as bad as the Marlins, he shouldnt be starting.Amy Adams, AKA Cinnamon MuffLogan Morrison: "If baseball didn't exist, I would probably be ... like a curler. Or a hairstylist."

Originally posted by Todd View PostHe really hasnt been better than Lucas. Pretty identical actually. And at least Lucas can play D.
--------------------
Lucas has been very good defensively, but Solano can play D, too. You talk about him like he's the worst defensive player ever.
