That's the same number as Zim and Nix, more than Bernadina, Ramos, and Ankiel, and only one less than Espinosa, Morse, and Werth. All these guys had at least three times as many ABs as he did. I don't know how many times they batted with a guy on 3rd and less than 2 outs and came up empty, but Marrero did his job in those situations. I think he warrants a C or maybe even a B-. <br /><br />I agree his power leaves much to be desired, but his cup of coffee wasn't all that bad. To give him the same grade as Werth is unfair. (Of course, I think Werth deserved a D at best, given the expectations.)Section 222noreply@blogger.com
