Marquis makes Robinson Cano look like a pitcher in those situations.

Haha, true. When your lineup is that stacked, you don't have to come through most of the time because those other guys will pick you up. I also think Cano's struggles with RISP is a statistical anomaly, just like Swisher hitting better on the road than at home this year.
