June 17, 200323 yr credit. Pete Gammons says" I give Beinfest and the marlins' scouts alot credit for finding Willis, it was great scouting on the Marlins part." Well atleast someone gives this people there due. I guess the local media rather go run and get a quote from a former marlin (knowing what kind of answer he's going to get) and printing it. This guys down here just don't get it....
June 17, 200323 yr Well, Pettie has never been quite the Marlins Man himself... He has always ridiculed this franchise for its moves. Now he loves us. I just don't get him...
June 17, 200323 yr Author I never agree with Pete either but here with those comments at least he's giving this GM/scouts credit for finding the kid.....saying something positive rather then just find the negative angle to everything. One thing he said was Dontrelle is "the next best thing in baseball" thats a strong statement
June 17, 200323 yr Pete goes for ratings. Who on ESPN doesn't? Ratings = $$$$ :disney As for his change of heart all of a sudden...maybe it was a message to him from a higher power? :angel Have A Nice day, CapeFish
June 17, 200323 yr One thing he said was Dontrelle is "the next best thing in baseball" thats a strong statement All we can do is pray... :angel . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . That he signs next to the big "X" :deal :thumbup :notworthy
June 17, 200323 yr I dont care if ESPN does it for the ratings at least the marlins are getting some national attention.
June 18, 200322 yr Exactly... Maybe now some more votes on some ballots will read "Alex Gonzalez, Florida Marlins" I think McKeon really helped Willis, though... Saying that he should be in the AS game was a very good, bold move on Jack's part, and all it did was give Dontrelle MORE possitive press...
