2024 Spring Training Discussion Thread
“In escape rooms, essentially, you're trying to figure out ways when things aren't going right,” said Johnston, who first tried one three years ago. “You are trying to figure out ways to be successful and get out of the room, do whatever it is. Same thing with baseball. You're in a slump, you've got to try to figure out, put the pieces together, create the puzzle, whatever it is. So you can succeed in baseball, life, whatever it is. It's a direct correlation in the sense that we're all working on things ourselves, and we're all going towards a common goal.”

Nick Gordon acquired for Okert
As grouchy as the dudes been on here for what, 20 years…This board actually needs Das to break up the monotony of bad dad jokes.

Has the Miami native, JD Martinez been mentioned by anyone?

Soler Opts Out (Is Also a Silver Slugger Finalist)
His body is going to be in shambles going forward. He'd be crazy not to chase term at this point. In a weak FA class he's getting 3 years imo

Soler Opts Out (Is Also a Silver Slugger Finalist)
The cheapness doesn't bother me as much as the stupidity. He is NOT accepting that QO. If you're cheap you need first round draft picks.

So you lose a draft pick for the <1% chance at best Soler accepts it? What’s the real drawback?

Peter Bendix Named Pres. Of Baseball Ops
Huh?

All-time screw job
My biggest question - they knew a flood inducing multiple day storm was coming. Why wouldnt they move the start time up, especially after the debacle Tuesday? Are we conspiracy nuts if we just figure it's easy for MLB to just shrug off our issues with a mega fanbase at our heals?

All-time screw job
Marlins have to go all out with a bummed roster in games that would be meaningless if last nights games finished as a win.

Don Mattingly is One of the Stupidest People in Baseball
Never in my life has a manager pissed me off every single game until I ran across this tard. Even if you never watched a game you could tell he was missing a chrome just listening to his interviews.

Matt Moore claimed
Should help tremendously

Sixto to Double-A; One Inning/20 Pitches Scheduled Tuesday
Isn't there a buyout on his mutual option, (+ big '24 salary) reason he wasn't claimed by anyone.

Sixto to Double-A; One Inning/20 Pitches Scheduled Tuesday
IT was reported it's a change of scenery since he's been in Jupiter for three years. It's not like he's joining the roster.
-
Who should we claim?
Really a ridiculous rule when the worst team in playoff contention gets everyone
-
Fire brant brown?
All for it. Actually feel this lineup underachieved.
-
Jorge Soler player option
Too late now. why wouldn't he wait a few month and hit the market with huge demand in weak free agent class? Someone will overpay much more than what we offer and all of a sudden staying in Miami wouldn't seem worth leaving millions on the table.

What happened to Skip
Agree with OP
-
3rd series in a row dropped.
No weak schedule to save em

8/21 Marlins at Padres
Another Weathers forfeit
-
Loria pissed at Jeter
Axing the sculpture was a net positive but the Park definitely needs something. Some type of nonexclusive restaurant area would have done more for the experience than the automation alley

The Floro implosion really hurt this team
This team is in desperate need of a reliable high leverage righty. If Puk would have held his ground at closer, Robertson would have been the perfect right handed fireman in this pen. Chargois and Brazoban aren’t it either. it’s unfortunate Skip learned one loss too late Lopez needs to be banished too. How in the world do you feel more comfortable with him than Nardi or Soriano in that situation? Yikes

8/16 asstoes
Imagine feeling better about Lopez over Nardi or Soriano in that situation.

What's Changed?
Bergers home runs all came in short 3-4 game chunks in Chicago. He gets into one of those soon in August it can help us string some wins against some tough opponents. We have above average power now, if a few get hot together with our rotation we can win some games against anyone on this schedule imo

8/9 Post Game
I think that's easy to say eating Pringles on the couch. (No offense that's just what i was doing) But when testosterone's flaring, careers are at stake and mistakes happen/players feel angry and at fault, probably not the best time for a condescending ass slap on the guy who called the home run pitch. This reaction is more expected than not imo.
