MiamiNative0722 Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 don't think we need a 1-2 starter. Get some extensions, get peavy and get some bats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erick Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 One example. Their is a guy named Cole Hamels on the trade block, and we have what it takes to get him, options are out there No we don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erick Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 And btw, i believe a 1 year 7 million dollar deal plus incentives can get it done. No it won't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiamiFan Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Expensive acquisition for sure. I'm not opposed. I'm guessing he's around 12.5 per type at 33 and looking at his previous pay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 One or two year deal, AAV under $12 Mill, I'm in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canada-marlin24 Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Peavy just scares me. Never know when his arm will snap though I know he had a couple of healthy years. Feels like he is older than 33. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poptart Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 1 year 7 million could get Kris Medlen. go get Kris Medlen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entendu Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Medlen would be the kind of young guy the Marllns would want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Medlen would be the kind of young guy the Marllns would want. Except his arm doesnt work at the moment and it'd be redundant to have him and Jose in the same hypothetical rotation in 2015. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entendu Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Except his arm doesnt work at the moment and it'd be redundant to have him and Jose in the same hypothetical rotation in 2015. 2015 isn't the last year of MLB. We'd have control of him through 2016. I'd pay 15 million or so for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 2015 isn't the last year of MLB. We'd have control of him through 2016. I'd pay 15 million or so for that. Well we'd need another pitcher to cover what we need in our rotation next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Peavy would be a great consolation prize to Shields. Hell, probably even a blessing in disguise on a 2-year deal instead of Shields and a 4-5 year offer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 unrelated and I know it's been a couple years of this but I still can't believe Andrew Miller's gonna wind up getting like 40 million. Seems like the Marlins did everything they could to make it work here. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like the Marlins did everything they could to make it work here. Oh well. I was thinking the same. Every time I hear about his free agency I think is this the same Andrew Miller we had?

fish14 Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Im surprised he is not getting offers to start. The only reason he didn't make it as a starter was because he had no control. Now that he's seemingly fixed that I would think it would be a steal to give him this contract and see if he can replicate his bullpen success in the rotation. Ill always remember the one ridiculously dominant start he had against the phillies one year for some reason. Pretty sure we won the game 1-0 or something like that.

SongInTheAir Posted December 3, 2014 Author Share Posted December 3, 2014 Miller's effectiveness is based on a small number of batters faced. He thrived on teams with managers who know how to use a bullpen. If he's looking for money, he'll sign with the team offering the most, but if he's looking for success he'll sign with a team fronted by a manager who has a clue regarding bullpen management.

I dont agree with that, he dominated lefties and righties last year. He wasn't a LOOGY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MittRomney Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 I agree with dim. 3 years/45 million is probably right, maybe 40ish. 1year 7 million gets Peavy to laugh at us........a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pollythewog Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 No way Peavey gets 3. 2/25 will do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 No way Peavey gets 3. 2/25 will do it. How about the 3rd is a vesting option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pollythewog Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 How about the 3rd is a vesting option? Like if he hits x amont of innings or something? sure why not, but I don't tihnk that will be needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Like if he hits x amont of innings or something? sure why not, but I don't tihnk that will be needed. I'm thinking more like 300 innings, 28 wins, 407 strikeouts, less than 5 walks, ERA under 1 ... Win MVP but NOT Cy Young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
