ESTShareTweetShareShareLewis Brinson’s comeback tour is in full swingJasen Vinlove-USA TODAY SportsAs the Miami Marlins move full steam ahead through Spring Training, the doubts about the future of this rebuilding franchise continue to linger. One of the main questions is whether or not LewisBrinson could bounce back from a dismal 2018 campaign.Looking back at last season for the Fort Lauderdale native, it’s no wonder that an immense amount of pressure is thrown at him in preparation for a new year. In his rookie year Ferguson Jenkins Jersey , Brinson batted just .199, only the fourth rookie to finish below the Mendoza line in the past 60 years (min. 400 PA). His 30% strikeout rate was worse than any of the other Marlins starting position players. It was a disaster for somebody who was widely ranked as a top-20 MLB prospect entering last season.High expectations were put upon Brinson after he was the centerpiece of the trade that sent Christian Yelich to the Brewers. But if these early spring games are any indication (keep in mind, they often are not), the 24-year-old may have some of his own NL MVP potential.On Monday, Brinson launched two more home runs to bring his total to five http://www.rangersfanproshop.com/authentic-matt-moore-jersey , which leads all players in Spring Training. To give you an idea of how locked in he’s been, Tuesday’s 1-for-3 performance actually lowered his batting average to .421 through eight games.Organizational depth is important, but Miami is also looking for its newest superstar. With Giancarlo Stanton being traded to the Yankees and then the recent departure of J.T. Realmuto, many are hoping that Brinson is the next guy for the fanbase to wrap their arms around. Who better than a South Florida native?Brinson has all the tools necessary to rise to the occasion. Specifically, the power he’s been showing is something that Miami so desperately needs. Starlin Castro is the returning home run leader from last year’s roster Ryan Rua Jersey , and he only hit 12.Granted it’s only a few weeks into Spring Training, and Opening Day is nearly a month away still, but if Brinson can make these adjustments last, then the Marlins have found a critical building block. That would simplify DerekJeter‘s job moving forward and turn many of his skeptics into believers. Say "cheese!""
