The Marlins’ infield have committed very few errors this year, and that has been due to the mantra of infield coach Perry Hill.
The Miami Marlins once upon a time had a great infield defense led by Mike Lowell, Luis Castillo, Alex Gonzalez, and Derrek Lee. It was questionable how great that defense was with that quartet managing the infield, but the group won several Gold Gloves and they were led by a defensive guru in then-infield coach Perry Hill.
After the 2005 fire sale, the Marlins’ defensive prowess dropped badly around the diamond.
