Initial UZR rating out now:

The first UZR rating which rate a player defense have come out on Fangraphs. Here's a look at the initial looks of some of the Marlins players. Fangraphs will update this weekly.

Right now fangraphs has him as a 2.4 UZR. That's quite good. However, Coghlan should regress as he has never played this quality of defense in left, which is a tougher position.

Logan Morrison has been tabbed as a 2.5 UZR thus far. Interesting there. I also see LoMo regressing as he was a -7.2 UZR last season.

Here's a look at Hanley's:

Not surprising at all as Hanley has a -2.9 UZR.

Lastly I'll look at Infante:

Infante comes in as a 1.3 UZR.


I will have Marlins-Pirates preview up later tonight. First, have to celebrate the Miami Heat victory!!
