From losing arguably the best starting outfield in the major leagues, to Wei-Yin Chen‘s road woes, to a 5-17 start to the season, to Lewis Brinson‘s underwhelming arrival in Marlins Park. The Miami Marlins were difficult to root for.
One notable exception was the production of J.T. Realmuto, who was today honored as the National League’s Silver Slugger Award winner at catcher.
Despite missing the first 16 games of the season due to injury, Realmuto ended up leading the Miami Marlins with 21 home runs and with 74 RBI.
