Steve Cishek first made the Marlins roster three years after he was drafted in 2007 and the year after he was called up again to stay.

Pegged as a Relief Pitcher from the beginning, Cishek moved into the closer's role during the 2012 Season and would lead the National League in Games Finished (62) and had 34 Saves.  Cishek compiled 39 Saves in 2014, though his ERA climbed over three.  That would be his last full year with Miami, as he was traded to St. Louis the following summer.

Cishek finished 191 Games for the Marlins with 94 Saves.

Alex Gonzalez is an interesting player to rank, as the traditional stats, an All-Star (1999) and 788 Hits should place him much higher on a team like the Marlins.

Playing at Shortstop for the Marlins from 1998 to 2005, Gonzalez did have a decent hit count, but his ability to draw walks was non-existent, and he only had a .291 OBP.  Defensively, Gonzalez was inconsistent and had only one season as a Marlin where his Defensive bWAR was over one, which is not what you need for a Shortstop.  His overall Marlins bWAR is under two, reflecting his deficiencies, though he had moderate power, most notably hitting the walk-off Home Run that won Game 4 against the Yankees in the 2003 World Series.

That aside, Gonzalez's rank is the one we feel we revisit yearly.

Kevin Millar tasted Major League Baseball when the low minor league player was a replacement player in the 1995 Spring Training Games.  It kept him from ever joining the Player’s Union, but it did not keep him from eventually reaching the Majors, first doing so in 1998 for a pair of Games.  The year after, he was a regular on the roster.

Millar gained more playing time in 1999 and 2000 and was the primary starter for the Marlins in the two years after.  He batted over .300 and slugged over .500 in both seasons (.314 & .306) and showed moderate power, with a 20-Home Run year in 2001.  Millar's contract was sold to Boston in 2003, and he accumulated 443 Hits with a .296 Batting Average for the Marlins.

A First Round Pick and former High School Player of the Year, Preston Wilson made the Mets in 1998, only for him to be traded two weeks later to Florida.

Wilson only played 14 Games the rest of the year for the Marlins, going back to the Minors, but the year after, he was a starting Outfielder, and was second in Rookie of the Year voting (26 HR, .280).  In 2000, Wilson was a 30/30 player (31 HR, 36 SB) and led the NL in Strikeouts with 187.  He had back-to-back 23 Home Run years in 2001 and 2002 but would be traded the year after to Colorado.

Wilson had 104 Home Runs, 87 Stolen Bases, and 549 Hits with the Marlins.
