Jose Reyes' Future
I'd have to think the Marlins will reinvest the money they got off the books in the Hanley/Anibal trades this offseason. you'd have to be naive to think that. Samson said they'd cut payroll if attendance was less than expected, and attendance was less than expected. I want to see where he said that. Its from the Passan article, Passan suggests Samson said this but never quoted him. What Samson said before the season was this "We've always said payroll is going up when our revenue is going up. We expect higher revenue. We never had suite revenue. We never had people in the ballpark. We never had concession revenue. We never had any of these things. Our whole model, our revenue model, our expense model is different. With the additional money we have to spend, we're giving it to players." In other words they will cut payroll if attendance is low.

560 WQAM
Zaslow in the morning, 790 the Ticket, has continuously repeated it's not a fire sale and he's liked the trades we've made uhhh 790 is the marlins channel, of course they like the trades. if ticket prices were raised suddenly now, they would say it is justified.

8/1 Post Game
Ozzie was fukd up for not letting LeBlanc finish the 5th, but it understandable as they need to get big Z some wins and lower his era so they can trade him sometime.

Things that I would like to see the rest of this season
There are a few things that I would like to see change from now until the end of the season to make it a little more enjoyable to watch. 1) Move Ricky Nolasco to the bullpen. He might be a good late inning guy. He's always had decent stuff. Not only might he be good at it, he might increase his trade value. Teams get desperate for effective relievers. 2) Let Donovan Solano play third base. I know he's not the answer for our long term solution but he might produce enough to be a regular bench player for us and a suitable stop gap for Cox or whomever else we try to get. Either way I don't want to see Donnie Bleeping Murphy take away at bats from Solano. We know what Murphy can or better said can't do. 3)Bring up Jacob Turner already. I want to see him and Eovaldi pitch as much as I can this season. I want them ready for next year. I would also love to see Brad Hand pitch at some point this season but I realize that we need to see what Wade Leblanc can do in our rotation first. Although I think Leblanc is better suited as a swing man out of our bullpen. 4)Move Yelich to AA. Why wait any longer? Speed up his ascent to the big leagues. Harper and Trout are already in the bigs and they aren't much older. Yelich has not struggled at any minor league stop along the way. He's ready for AA. 5) Promote Brantly as soon as possible to the MLB roster. Watching Buck and or Hayes is really frustrating. Buck will just have to be an expensive back up for one season. 6)Promote AJ Ramos to the big league roster. Feel free to post your ideas or thoughts. I agree with said points. If we're playing for the future might as well let some younger guys get there chance.

Beinfest Trade Analysis
So because the team doesn't win, that means the organization hasn't won a single trade? Cue Herm Edwards

Beinfest Trade Analysis
these "win" trades should have made the team better ... that's technically what they should have done if we "won" those trades. well I haven't seen any "winning" from these "win" trades in the last few years Its just people sticking up for their "team". I support the players as a team, but to support management dumping players in support of their "team" is rediculous. Also notice the Cabrera/Willis trade wasnt mentioned.

"Forward thinking" Stadium designer---> Loria and Co. (why build a cheap stadium when I can get an expensive one for nothing) Construction--->Tax payer Maintenence and electricity--->Tax Payer Revenue from tickets/concessions-->Loria and Co. ***Capitalism*** All the Fidel haters out there support this.

Carlos Lee acquired, Sanchez optioned
As a ML player, why in the world would you block a trade to the Yankees and get a chance to go to the playoffs when you know you'll be placed on waivers anyway? Doesn't make any sense to me. No ranches in New York.
