Marisnick is 24 and has played in 167 games over 2.5 years in the majors. I think you guys are giving up on him too soon. He will be an everyday starter on a major league club somewhere.


I think he could be an everyday OF on a bad or average club and fits well as a reserve guy on the Astros, which is why I said I like him as that. I don't think that's giving up on him, there's plenty of value in that and he was never some top prospect that people projected for stardom.

Maybe he takes a big leap at the plate and proves me wrong but that's how I see it right now

I just realized the Astros have a third of their top 15 MLB prospects that were listed on MLB.com at the beginning of the year are now on the active MLB roster. And they are all producing.

Yet... their farm system has been over-rated.

Yeah, that seems to be who he is, as of right now.

.245/.285/.390 this year

That's what he has been so far as a big leaguer. His wRC+ (teehee) is below average. His defense is not that good to make up for it. I hope he proves us wrong again.
