As an offensive team this season, the Miami Marlins were awful. It’s hard to believe how a team that wanted to move past 64 wins from the 2018 version of this roster could have taken a step backward, but that’s what happened.
According to MLB.com’s Joe Frisaro, “Miami finished 29th in runs scored, 29th in on-base percentage and last in the Majors in homers and slugging percentage.
“In an age of an unprecedented number of homers being hit, the Marlins aren’t necessarily targeting home run hitters moving forward. They are searching for hitters who show bat-to-ball skills and are considered pure hitters with power.
