    Holy fuck what a letdown. Why even do a teaser for that? Sure we worked ourselves up but you don't do a fake leak to hype something that isn't going to deliver. 

    Exactly what I expected. Some loser with a degree who thinks he learned some cool guerrilla Marketing tactic in college

    They just came off a playoff appearance and they aren't the lowest spending org so why would MLB "make them spend"? 

    Not going to happen, likely ever. (Unfortunately)

    Last year was SUPER flukey and it’s in the best interest of MLB to make sure the Marlins do everything to SIGNIFICANTLY improve cause as of right now, I fully expect a major regression. And if/when they do, it will immediately disqualify last season as  luck and throw the organization back another 5 years. They had the worst run differential by far (of any team in the postseason), they were bottom five in offense, and as of today they lost their most impactful bay in Soler. So some serious shut needs to go down!

    Isiah Kiner-Falefa is being targeted by Marlins according to Rosenthal

    For what? They could stick Berti at short at get that same level of production.

    Fucking annoying that every team that picked up one of the “big” shortstops from two off seasons ago was in the plays off and the one that took TWO of them won it all and here we are looking at Kiner-Falefa. At what point does this team get forced to legitimately spend or forced to sell to a REAL ownership group?

  4. Im confused, how is this a leak if the marlins themselves are posting it? This seems like some cheesy fake “leak” thing they’re trying to do to just announce that center field is gonna be called “Jazz’s Jizzers” or some shit. And what’s the deal with the email addresses  being MB.com? Someone help me out lol

    He ain't 100% innocent. C'mon now. Lol.

    "Not guilty" =/= "innocent"

     

    And strictly from a baseball standpoint, he's not *that* good. He's never been *that* good outside of two seasons, one of which he only faced Central opponents for 12 starts. I'm not taking any chances in any regard with him.

    Not gonna get too far into that whole thing but if you tell a girl you’re into fucking them up and they agree cause they hope to have some financial gain there is no guilt or innocence, that’s just a good old fashioned agreement between two adults. Stupid games, win stupid prizes! Though these days that shit seems to not matter anymore cause accountability is no longer something people value as a personal trait. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    with that said, sign him! Lol

    Marlins wouldn’t do it because they are afraid of the backlash of the 12 fans that would complain. But you know, they have to keep a good reputation as an upstanding and professional organization.

    He’s 100% innocent, there is absolutely nothing to complain about and any backlash is unwarranted. SIGN’M UP!

    Bloom was forced by management to trade Betts/ Price and not resign his FA to save money. He did what he was told to do, and the assumption is because he was willing to trade Betts and Price, he was given the job, He was the scapegoat / lackey

    Dude it goes SOOO much further than Betts/Price believe me. Just like only a real Marlins fan can tell that Ng was terrible at in-season roster management, Red Sox fans will tell you that  he was literally the worst GM in recent memory. For gods sake they fired him with only days left in the season!

    Chaim Bloom is an interesting option as either GM or president of baseball ops, I think he got a raw deal with Boston.

    Though he could prove too expensive for Bruce.

    I'd also be surprised if they don't give Oz Ocampo a look as GM. He's already in as assistant GM and is well respected.

    No way! Bloom DESTROYED the Red Sox! I say it all the time but my household was a Red Sox house before 1993 so they’ve always been my second team and I can tell you there is no worse GM than Chaim Bloom. Go say two “our fathers”!

    Also I agree, Oz should get a look at the job especially if there’s going to be a PBO.

    Trade Jazz

    Literally the number one priority I think. He’s gonna flounder in mediocrity his whole career not because he’s not talented, but because he is a spoiled diva with unearned gravitas. I hope his atrocious performance in the playoffs gave him a slice of humble pie. Trade him while he has some value!

    ah ha.....the rest of the stuff in that point didn't hold up, but still!

    Not to mention he was suspended from MLB for years for this incident?

    As you can see I’m the sole like on that post and I also was 100% for bringing him in.

    Yeah ... they gave him a big ol' two year ban.

    Was he officially ever cleared in the courts though?

    For Clevinger ... if they didn't find anything worth even a fine, then yeah I'm moving on from it.

    Yeah the courts dropped the case. It might have been a fucked up situation but it objectively wasnt illegal if she agrees in writing to being hit and choked and all that and in addition, came back again after the first time. It went too far for sure, but she agreed to a stupid game and stupid games win stupid prizes 🤷🏻‍♂️. But yeah, I hope everyone lets Clev get back to work and back on a mound

    Sorry to get your hackles up, big dog. You lost me when you led off your list of elite hitting prospects with Brinson. I’m familiar with what the site is now: dick jokes and irrelevant quips to get your post counts up. It wasn’t always this way.

    Show me actual stats about hitters flopping at a higher rate than pitchers and I’ll retract my post.

    And I find your comment about Marlins having trouble developing hitters extremely accurate. Which is why I think you really meant to say we should trade the 19 year old pitcher for the fully developed, MLB ready hitting prospect in your initial post.

    First off I never said he was elite, I said he was highly-touted at the time which he absolutely was. And if you disagree, then you go find your own stats and prove me wrong, cause I don’t have to do shit 🤷🏻‍♂️

    This is dumb logic. There are shit tons of high end pitching prospects that don't make the jump. OR lose a season to TJ, and the following season due to building their arm back up. 

    Yeah cause injury and inability to perform at the major league level are the same thing. A hitter can just as well tear their ACL and be out a whole year so idk what the fuck point you’re trying to make. This team has proven it can develop pitching and cannot develop hitting. Given the volatility of prospects as a whole, and this teams very recent failures in that department, im keeping the pitching prospect. 

    Btw, coming at people moronically the way you did isn’t really what this site is about. Get with the program. Called my logic dumb while simultaneously adding nothing to this conversation…
