Lou Marson Biography

Lou Marson is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on June 26, 1986 in Scottsdale, United States. Louis Glenn Marson, born June 26, 1986, is an American former professional baseball pitcher who played in Major League Baseball (MLB), for the Philadelphia Phillies (from 2008 to 2013). Marson was also a participant in the 2008 Summer Olympics. He currently manages the Triple-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Angels, the Salt Lake Bees of the Pacific Coast League.

Jason Donald, Marson’s Reading teammate, was selected to the United States National Baseball Team for the 2008 Olympics. They won the bronze medal. Davey Johnson, the national team manager, said that Marson and his Reading teammate Jason Donald were “really impressed” during (the Futures Game )…. He caught the first three innings. The signs are not given to the catcher. He instructed Brett Anderson to throw to the first baseman and he chose (a runner). His numbers are amazing for a catcher –great offensive catcher-I got reports that everything about him was good.”

On July 29, 2009, the Phillies traded Marson, along with Jason Donald, Carlos Carrasco, and Jason Knapp to the Cleveland Indians for Cliff Lee and Ben Francisco.

Marson participated in the major league 2009 spring training with the Phillies, where veteran starter Jamie Moyer expressed his pleasure with Marson’s skills and ability to call the game. Assistant GM Chuck LaMar said that “[his] strength has actually become his ability to run the game… That is unique for a converted catcher. We think he’s one of the finest catching prospects in baseball.” Marson was reassigned to the minor leagues on March 23, but was called up to the majors on April 11 to replace Carlos Ruiz, who injured his right oblique muscle. He went 1-for-4 in one game for the Lehigh Valley IronPigs before his call-up.

Marson was called up by the Phillies on September 1st 2008. On September 1, 2008, he was called up to the Phillies. Later, he scored his first run in that same inning. He also scored his first home run in the big league against Marco Estrada. This was the last day of 2008 Philadelphia Phillies season. Although Marson wasn’t on the World Series-winning roster he did travel with them in case of injury. In spite of this, he did get a World Series ring. Marson played in the Arizona Fall League for the Mesa Solar Sox after the conclusion of the post-season.
