Do 2016 Miami Marlins Have A Miguel Cabrera or Jeff Conine?

So I’ll go ahead and cop to following the team a little less closely over the past week. The luster of another golden Olympic performance by the world’s greatest athlete will do that. Growing up in Miami, I also grew up in the water, and while I’m a huge baseball fan, swimming is just about the only sport I’d claim to be good at. And only Dan Marino stands taller than Michael Phelps when it comes to athletes I’ve put on a personal veneration pedestal, so missing more than a night of coverage was out of the question. Ultimately, swimming season is one week long every four years, and my wife has a bit of a sports saturation level.
