Hypothetical: You are the Marlins GM
Honestly idk what I’d do since I don’t watch baseball outside of the marlins anymore. I know maybe 25% of non Marlins players. I trust in Bendix’s decisions not because he deserves my trust but because I don’t know any better.

Luzardo traded to Phillies
To be fair, an offensive ceiling of Edwards with elite defense at short is like a 6+ WAR player. But yeah being 3ish years out makes it a big gamble.

They could take on bad contracts to get prospects in return lol

Luzardo traded to Phillies
Don’t understand how Luzardo is only worth one high variance 19 year old prospect when he has 2 years of cheap control. Look at how much good lefties are making in FA. Feels incredibly forced like the Burger trade. Very lame.

Marlins' Trade Deadline Thread (July 30, 6pm)
C Ramirez, Mack 1B De Los Santos, Martorella 2B Norby, Serna SS Edwards, Sonoja 3B Burger, Pauley LF Marsee, Alderman CF Stowers, Head, Mesa RF Morlando DH Berry SP Meyer, Meyers, White, Snelling, De La Cruz, Mazur Honestly not bad potential here at most positions and I left some off. Some aren’t big league ready but it’s good to look out. Night and day difference from this offseason and we still have all of our major league SPs except Rodgers. Pretty cool. 3B is the only position there without an obvious prospect and at least Burger has control. And yeah Berry is meh lol

Marlins' Trade Deadline Thread (July 30, 6pm)
Someone made a good point on Twitter that the Padres have been subpar developing talented pitching prospects like Weathers and Gore who went on to perform elsewhere. Snelling was a first round pick with a sub 2 era in A/A+/AA last year at 19 years old…that’s elite. Other guy was good last year as well. Could be good

2023/24 Off-Season
I wanted Jazz at SS to begin the season, but after moving him to CF and actually having him become a great defender I don't think it's fair or makes much sense to move him again
-
2023/24 Off-Season
He’s a natural 2B and I think he’d be fine defensively there. I know they tried cross training him at CF in the minors since 2B is filled and SS wasn’t working out, but if Jazz is staying there then that’s filled too. His bat doesn’t play well in the corners either. And I’m not a huge fan of moving Arraez to 1B since his bat becomes a lot less valuable. I honestly don’t know what to do with X, he doesn’t seem to have an obvious starting spot open for him. Yeah probably, but I’d like them to make a lowball offer so at least we get included in the Rosenthal rumors that the marlins made an offer. Should keep me entertained for a few days.

2023/24 Off-Season
X can’t play SS. Noodle arm. Worse than Wendle actually. Go get Garver and a Japanese pitcher. Idc which one. They just have to be Japanese.

Congrats to everyone on this Miami Marlins message board in the year 2023. Can’t believe we’ve never made the playoffs since I began lurking in 2005. We deserve this.

The Fire Kim Ng Thread
The fact that she hasn’t been extended already considering our relative success makes me think she’s not really the one calling the shots. If she is however, I want her to stay.
