For Lewis Brinson, it’s now or never

Entering the 2018 season, Lewis Brinson was one of baseball’s elite prospects and the Marlins’ number one, even above Sandy Alcántara and Brian Anderson, who are now vital pieces of the puzzle for Miami.

But Brinson’s path to success has been full of inconsistency and inexistent. He’s never lived up to the hype in the bigs and has not matched his performance with his scouting grades (50 for hitting and 60 for power on the 20-80 scale).

At 26 years old and after 207 games in his MLB career, the Marlins might be running out of patience with him.
