How does Stanton still swing at that stuff? lol

Kolek looks like a monster at least

This goes up there with some of the worst trades the Marlins have ever made.

To people on a message board. Yet they have an incredibly small payroll and are a game over .500 in june so they must know something. This front office has signed Carlos Marmol, Henry Rodriguez, and Kevin Gregg.... I'm sorry but there is a reason that these guys are free agents (because 29 other front offices know they are pitiful).

god marlins fans are obnoxious. Why is it a joke? he isn't a huge prospect where we are worried about service time right now he was just the best choice for a week rather than the awful skipworth or Brantly. I understand the marlins front office doesnt exactly endear themselves to fans trust but stop acting like they are completely incompetent and have no idea what they are doing and act like you could do a significantly better job or know more than them. After pretty much every move this front office makes....their competence comes more into question.

I just don't get it..... You trade a valuable commodity (top 40 pick in draft) for a middle reliever?

Really really moronic....a few more trades like this and Marlins will be doomed for years to come.

I think some of these mock drafts are reflecting the perceived notion that the Marlins may be a little hesitant to invest so much in another young arm (considering the heightened injury risks).

Law has the Marlins taking high school catcher Alex Jackson, after the Astros take Brady Aiken. Law goes on to say the following: "Analysis: The Marlins are on the same three names as Houston, plus Tyler Kolek, but the word around town is that Miami is focusing heavily on bats throughout the draft. The Fish have the most money in their draft pool of any team this year, with extra picks at 36 and 39 as well as their regular pick at 43, and could do just what Houston wants to do, cleaning up with as many as four first-round talents if they play their money right."

.500 was always the goal IMO for this season....and that was with Jose.

If the front office thinks the Marlins can compete this year then they should be fired for substance abuse.

Dont forget that Hanley only played in 86 games in 2013....theres no telling what his numbers would have been if he had played more than HALF the season.

As much of this comes off as the Braves crybaby-ing like usual....would anyone put it past Samson to put a camera in the sculpture? lol

So do you guys think Stanton will ever improve his discipline at the plate...even slightly?

Looks like the Miami Herald will be using the headline "Mr. Unreliable" about Stanton soon
