I think the marlins need to have a big season or sing a big free agent in 2012 to have a good attendance in the new stadium

The Marlins have signed right-hander Shawn Hill to a minor league contract, reportsMLB.com's Joe Frisaro. Hill is invited to Spring Training and will earn $600K if he makes the club. Hill, 29, broke into the majors with Montreal in 2004 and most recently made four starts for Toronto last season. The Jays released Hill to make room for Rajai Davis in November. Hill has a career 4.74 ERA and a 2.04 K/BB ratio in 44 Major League starts and has undergone two Tommy John surgeries in his young career. Hill pitched well in both the majors and minors for the Jays last year, and if he stays healthy, could be a nice high-upside addition to Florida's staff.

If we get him he is going to be our centerfield of the feature he has also benn compare to VICTOR MESA one of the best center field that cuba has had. Seriously?!? Of the Feature?!? What does that mean? ITS SPELLED FUTURE!! :banghead Now back to whatever I was saying.. Yelich is the CF for the Marlins future or feature, he like Balaguer is 3 years or so off and cost less I was wondering ... Ah well. is that some kind of joke Yasiel Balaguer is 10 times better than Yelich and really a first baseman in center

i still say the marlins should go and kidnap Yulieski Gourriel, he deserves to play in the majors he dosent want to leave cuba he said it in the 2006 world baseball classic i think he dosent want to leave cuba because his dad played baseball in cuban and was one of the best

MIAMI -- A year ago, the Marlins weighed whether to sign hard-throwing left-hander Aroldis Chapman, who wound up with the Reds. Once again, the Marlins are showing interest in a Cuban-born player. MLB.com has confirmed the team on Wednesday is watching a workout for Yasiel Balaguer, an 18-year-old Cuban outfielder. His athleticism and defense have drawn comparisons to Andruw Jones. Balaguer arrived in Miami in November after leaving Cuba while traveling to Mexico. The 18-year-old is being represented by Carlos Perez of Miami Sports Consulting. According to the Miami New Times, Balaguer is looking for a deal in the $18-20 million range. There are conflicting reports on the outfielder's talents. The Miami Herald has stated that he is "one of the biggest promising stars of Cuban baseball," while Baseball America considers him "solid" while having "average tools." Balaguer is also expected to work out for the Mariners and Cubs. MLB.com

Meh, I wouldn't rule it out. Given the ballpark coming next season, I think we've got a much higher chance of doing it than most other ballclubs. Thing is, this means Hanley won't get resigned. I doubt they could take on both of those contracts. You've got a point there. And if Stanton is what we expect, they won't have the money in, say, 2017, to give Hanley $20M, JJ $20M, Pujols $30M, and Stanton $10M. That'd be $70 on 4 players, not even thinking of guys like CC or LoMo. Coghlan and LoMo could go by then for all I care, and we could replace with minimum salary-undervalued players. I'm not saying there is, but if there's anyway possible to get Albert Pujols, you do it. For what it's worth, JJ might not be a Marlin by that time. 2017 is six years from now, and we all know that a pitcher can get injured throwing a single pitch. JJ also has a history of injury, already. Albert Pujols is a generational talent. Sure, but my point is that six years from now you can't have all that money on 4 guys, and that's very posiible if we did something like signing Pujols. who knows maybe six year from now we have that kind of money like a 150 million payroll

I was watching the MLB Network and the broadcasters were discussing what might happen if Albert Pujols doesn't sign a contract extension with the Cardinals. They mentioned possible clubs if he didn't return to St. Louis, and one of the teams was the Marlins. With Florida about to move into a new ballpark, is it possible that the organization would be looking to pick up a marquee player like Pujols as a welcoming gift for their fans? -- Benjamin F., Hollywood, Fla. As the franchise makes the transition to its new ballpark in 2012, payroll naturally will increase. We're already seeing more dollars spent on players. This year, the Opening Day payroll projects to be about $58 million. Perhaps we could be looking at a $70 million payroll in 2012. Now, if Pujols reaches the open market, would the Marlins make a run at the player who might be the best in the game? I wouldn't rule anything out, because the organization is pretty thorough in exploring the market. If they get creative and something makes sense, then I wouldn't be surprised if Florida made a push for any high-profile player. In the new ballpark, the Marlins should have more payroll flexibility because they don't have many players locked up to long-term contracts. Where the club would be cautious is allocating such a high percentage of its overall payroll on one player. Say Pujols signs a deal like Alex Rodriguez -- he would be making about $25 million to $30 million in 2012. If Florida's payroll jumped to about $100 million, then that figure would fit in more realistically than a payroll of say, $70 million to $80 million. The Marlins don't want a situation like the Rangers had when they signed A-Rod years ago and then weren't able to surround him with enough support.

marlins add outfielder alex romero and jorge padilla

And how do we get him exactly? Why would the WS trade their own Mike Stanton? they have Brent Morel and Mark Teahen to play third base and i think that they think that Brent More is their feature third baseman

Who things that the marlins should trade matt dominquez and some other minor leaquer for white sox cuban third baseman prospect dayan viciedo? Dayan viciedo in 38 mlb games last season hit 5 homers and 308 batting average and he is only 22
