Will Mike Stanton lead the league in HR’s next season?
In a little more than one full MLB season Miami Marlins RF Mike Stanton has quickly become my favorite player to watch. He has a cannon for an arm, a freakishly athletic dual sport body that should carry him for 15+ MLB seasons, and that light tower power than all of us here in the Miami area are raving about.
Mike Stanton was on pace and very narrowly missed the NL Home Run mark...

Mike Stanton: Raw Power
Imagine how good it would feel to hit a home run every fourth fly ball in the major leagues. Well the Miami Marlins’ right fielder, Mike Stanton, knows that feeling.

In Stanton’s first full major league season, 2011, he hit 34 home runs and posted a wOBA of .378 with...

Stanton The Manton
Mike Stanton snapped out of a 5 for 58 slump with 2 HRs and 4 RBIs in a doubleheader against the Phillies. Was retired lefty reliever Mike Stanton hitting for him? I realize they look a little different (the hitter is 22 years younger, 15 pounds heavier, 4 inches taller, a tad darker) but even a young K-prone hitter should avoid that bad of slumps, right? Well, obviously not....

Stanton climbing rookie leaderboard
The rest of the class had a head start. Now, Mike Stanton is catching up.

Fish on Fielder? Well, not yet
In his talks with clubs about Prince Fielder, agent Scott Boras has suggested that Fielder is the game’s last young power bat until Marlins right fielder Mike Stanton joins him among the game's elite.
If you believe that assertion — and many club executives agree that there is a dearth of power throughout the majors and minors — wouldn’t it be tempting to put Fielder...

Mike Stanton And Occasional Thrills
Mike Stanton hit another bomb last night. The young slugger has a flair for hitting some of the most monstrous shots in baseball. Monday night's shot was a laser that hit the third deck in St. Louis so hard that it ricocheted back on to the field almost as quickly as it left. Mark McGwire, sitting in the Cardinal dugout, had to appreciate the bomb and remember when he used to...
