Miami Marlins Fish Flash 2/26

Annnnnd- weekend.  We all know the Friday workday doesn’t count, so relax and enjoy.  Take comfort in the fact that this is the last weekend you’ll be deprived of some semblance of organized baseball being played until October.  Much like the dragons, baseball is coming.

So enjoy our last true Fish Flash of the week.  This morning’s selection of Miami Marlins news includes a pair of player profiles on a pair of players with wildly divergent expectations for 2016, as well as a piece speculating on what shape the offense might take.  Let’s dive in.
