Jeremy Hermida Finally Becomes The Marlins’ Team Leader!!!

on June 13th, 2009 by 30-Year Old Cardboard

This is something that many(although there are few of us) Marlins fans have been begging for for quite some time.  Jeremy Hermida has shown us flashes of greatness, but in his few seasons in the majors he has not been able to string together a streak worthy of mentioning…
