I want a full rebuild. I don't mind any of the on the field moves he's made so far. Im pissed at Manfred and Loria more than Jeter of course. Stanton is gone because of Loria and Jeter is here because of Loria and Manfred. Im just not gonna sit here and stan for a guy who 1) shouldn't be here and 2) will probably do a shit job rebuilding. Trading talented guys like Yelich and Ozuna for prospects is the easy part. It's everything after that that I dont trust him with. He never watched baseball after retiring, doesn't even believe in using analytics, and he's just a dick. What is there to like?

He shouldn't be here that's why. If he wasn't Derek Jeter we'd have different owners.

Ive only been a fan since 2002 so 2012 to now has been the worst. 2012, 2013, and 2015 were some of the hardest seasons of baseball to watch. The 2000's were filled with fun teams and hope for a better future with all our cool prospects.

The Dunn/Infante, Capps, Barraclough, Gordon, and Prado/Phelps trades are the only ones that actually helped the Marlins. Impressive.

Why retain yelich? Also I'd hold onto Ziegler. Let him be the closer and hope he does well so he'd actually have some value at the deadline. Worst case he's trash and his contract is up after the year.

I feel like a religious catholic man who's in a bad marriage. Yeah I'm not going to divorce my wife but I fucking hate her for selling off my kids to Libyan slave traders.

By the time both of their careers are done it'll be very hard to determine who was better

Jeter has no business running an MLB team I wouldn't hold my breathe. It's more likely that Sherman tells him to leave in 5 years imo

You eat 35 mil and you take on Castro then you better get a decent return

Greatest player in franchise history is being traded thanks to Loria and Manfred. Im glad you guys are happy that Jeter is gonna save some money.

There was a point in June when I thought Mas was going to buy the team and I had real hope for the first time since 2012 that the Marlins were going to become relevant lmao

Good for G. He holds all the power and shouldn't give it up. He's also probably going to make us rebuild properly. Nice guy.

People usually dont like giving away MVP winners for free, especially when the reasons for trading him are self inflicted.

Where did you hear about 75? I thought it was 90.

Trading Stanton as a salary dump when you could easily get under your internal cap by trading other players is pants on head retarded.

Some of you are a bit too sure that Stanton won't return anything of value. I mean, all it takes is for one team to fall in love with him and overpay and it's easier to fall in love with Stanton than Shelby Miller.

Best case scenario, Stanton refuses to be traded so Jeter is forced to trade the rest of our assets to get under our internal cap

Jon Morosi says a formal offer for Stanton has been made by the Cardinals

Don't see the problem in adding 5 mil a year to get elite prospects back. Trading Ozuna, Yelich and Stanton with money retained alone would bring back 6 elite prospects potentially and it's not like we'll need that 5 mil a year to add free agents anytime soon. Idk this rebuild could really work out if Jeter was just willing to trade everyone and not just Gordon, Stanton, and Prado. Dummy.

Would be kinda cool if he refused to be traded. He just wants to be loved :'(

This is actually a good idea. Get as much value possible out of Stanton, Yelich, Ozuna, Bour, Gordon, Straily, and maybe even Realmuto without adding bad contracts and we'll be under our salary cap and actually have a future. All the bad contracts will be up within 2-3 years and by that time our prospects will ideally be ready to actually compete with some complimentary fa additions.

We should just blow the whole thing up instead of trying to half ass the rebuild. Trade Stanton, Yelich, and Ozuna seperately to maximize the prospects coming back. Then trade say Bour and Prado together. This would kill bours value and we may need to still eat some of prados salary but getting him out is necessary. I think Gordon is tradeable by himself (maybe eat a little). At this point you can just keep tazawa and Ziegler and maybe trade them at the deadline if they improve. If not then they come off the books next year. Idk maybe there's less drastic measures

I keep wondering how much of that 40 mil in losses/year can be cut off the field

Loria should have told Jeter to keep Hill
