As you may or may not know, I sometimes like to have fun with my articles like my All-Time 25 Man Roster. Sometimes I like to take a break from writing about potential trades, reasons why the Marlins just lost again and so on.

So this time, I’m going to list all the jersey numbers and who were the best Marlins to ever wear the jersey. I’m not going to be unfair either, like when the Cleveland Cavaliers didn’t name LeBron James the best “number 23” in franchise history.

In here you’ll see some of your favorite Marlins of all time, you will see some All-Stars, some champions and some you will just think to yourself “Who?” or just the simple “This guy wasn’t good, how was he the best to wear that number?”

*All of these players listed have worn this number at least one season with the Marlins*

So here we go (1-25):

#1) Luis Castillo (1996-2005)

#2) Hanley Ramirez (2006-2012)

#3) Jorge Cantu (2008-2010)

#4) Mark Kotsay. (1997-1998)

#5) Logan Morrison (2012-2013) number 5 was retired until 2012.

#7) Ivan Rodriguez (2003)

#8) Andre Dawson (1995-96)

Now some other numbers worn by great Marlins players.

#44) Preston Wilson (1998-2002)

#47) Ricky Nolasco (2006-2013)

#50) Ryan Dempster (1998-2002)

#55) Josh Johnson (2005-2011)

#61) Livan Hernandez (1996-1999)

Well that was fun!

This should teach us some things. The Marlins have had some really good players wearing the same number, which put me in tough situations and it should also teach you that no one better than Wes Helms wore the number 39.

Writing this brought back a bunch of memories like the D-Train, Miggy and Josh Johnson. This also brought out some bad memories like Wes Helms and the tease of Mike Jacobs.

Remember Mike Jacobs? 2008 hit 32 home runs. What a time.

What do you think about this? Did I leave anyone off? Who should I have added that I missed?
