3 Biggest misconceptions about the Marlins under Peter Bendix

Peter Bendix was hired by the Miami Marlins for a specific reason, but his moves so far have raised some questions. Let's look at some misconceptions about Bendix and some odd narratives that have popped up over the course of this season.

The three biggest misconceptions about Peter Bendix's Miami Marlins regime.

3. Peter Bendix doesn't care about winning.

It seems insane to even have to talk about, but there's this narrative going around that Bendix doesn't actually want The Fish to win! The idea is that he's desperate to sell-off players and that winning isn't a priority for him. That's such a ridiculous narrative that I don't understand where it even comes from.

Why would Peter Bendix want the Miami Marlins to lose? What is the benefit for him in this? If the team never wins much with him in charge, he will not be able to get a job like this anywhere else. He will be seen as terrible at his job. If he has any personal ambitions, then he certainly won't fulfill any of them if he just helps the team lose.

Peter Bendix will only benefit in any way if the team wins. This means that any move that he makes, he makes because he genuinely thinks that this is good for the team. We can analyze whether those moves are good or bad, but he's not making those moves with the hope of it leading to losing. It's important to remember that this narrative is plain silly.
