clubhouse sports · May 9, 2010

Hey guys....what does everyone think will happen with him? when will he get called up? why didn't he play last 2 games? i use milb.com, but it doesn't really give good player news...where can i get this?

He attended a friend's wedding throughout the past 2 games. Should be back tonight.

Callup? June at the earliest, I say.

The wedding thing was reported on these boards yesterday. If you Google him, you'll see he was out of the lineup on "personal business".

As for the callup, according to Rotoworld:

Mike Stanton: Stanton coming to Marlins soon?
Mike Stanton - OF - FLA - May. 7 - 6:47 pm et
Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria said prospect outfielder Mike Stanton will "probably" be in the major leagues this summer.
"When he's ready and the baseball people tell me he's ready to do it, we'll do it," said Loria. "I gather the baseball people don't want him to come and fail. If he's going to come here, he's going to come here to stay. We always want to provide the foundation for success, not temporary success. He'll probably be here this summer, that's all I can tell you. He'll be very exciting to come around. Don't forget, there's a lot of pressure to put on a 20-year-old man." Stanton is batting .340/.477/.840 with an incredible 14 homers and 31 RBI through 100 at-bats with Double-A Jacksonville. Yeah, he'll be on his way soon enough. May. 7 - 6:47 pm et

I wish they would keep him in the minors the rest of the season. Let him play a little winter ball and then let him battle for a spot in the outfield in spring training next season. I just don't want him on the same roller coaster Maybin has been on.

he will probably be called up june 1st when the marlins can get an extra year of eligibility under his rookie contract. The marlins try to keep there young talent as long as possible before they need to decide what to do about the huge contract that they will have to pay there players.

I just hope when he gets the call he hits a homer (or two) in his first game so we can all reap the benefits of the Stanton hysteria to follow.

The only negative will be the sheer amount of STANON MANIA-esque threads on the boards.

thats not a negative...his stuff is arleady going crazy and hasn't even got called up! its gonna go REALLY crazy when he does....i guess my question is can his raw chromes go higher than the $150 heywards got when he got the call? Also, i don't think the "impulse buyer" or average collector will realize just what a small % of his autos grade 10......which i think is sad because the ones with 10 auto should get big premium.
