August 3, 200422 yr Out of all the tradings that took place, how many and who do you think will be wearing marlin uniforms next year?
August 3, 200422 yr We're stuck with Enc next year, unless somebody's stupid enough to take him off our hands.
August 3, 200422 yr I think we shall keep all 3. I also forsee Benitez staying. 491053[/snapback] :lol - Yeah and the Marlins payroll sky rockets to $100 million. I don't think so.
August 3, 200422 yr I think we shall keep all 3. I also forsee Benitez staying. 491053[/snapback] r we gonna keep pavano also that's a lot of moola
August 3, 200422 yr I would like to see Lo Duca stay, but we will have to offer him arbitration to keep him. Since LA didn't get Johnson, they would likely make a play for him, and he would probably go back given the opportunity.
August 3, 200422 yr If we can find someone to take Enc off our hands I think we will be able to keep Pavano and Mota. Unless Loria lowers the payroll like he did this year.

August 3, 200422 yr If we can find someone to take Enc off our hands I think we will be able to keep Pavano and Mota. Unless Loria lowers the payroll like he did this year. 491069[/snapback] Only one more year of Hampton's payments, so perhaps they can work something out with a deferred salary contract.

Unless Loria lowers the payroll like he did this year. 491069[/snapback] Only one more year of Hampton's payments, so perhaps they can work something out with a deferred salary contract. 491077[/snapback] I think that'll have to be the deal if we want to sign Pavano.
August 3, 200422 yr I think we shall keep all 3. I also forsee Benitez staying. 491053[/snapback] r we gonna keep pavano also that's a lot of moola 491060[/snapback] yup, I see Carl and Armando signing 3 year deals with money backloaded into 2006 and 2007 (Pudge and Hampton's payments run out after 2005 and that frees up $4 and $9 million respectively a year) that will allow them to stay. Enc is signed and Mota is arbitration eligible and only makes $1,475,000 this season. Beinfest will work magic.
August 3, 200422 yr We won't need Benitez next year any way. Mota will be a fine closer, and Spooney will be a fine set-up man. No need to spend $6 million on a closer when we already have a good closer and set-up man. Hopefully Beinfest will be able to use that money on a 5th starter or catcher/1st baseman.

August 3, 200422 yr mota will receive a significant upgrade, no doubt 491085[/snapback] I think I heard somewhere, he'll probably make in the $3-3.5 million range.

And I personally don't want to see Justin Wayne starting games.
August 3, 200422 yr We won't need Benitez next year any way.? Mota will be a fine closer, and Spooney will be a fine set-up man.? No need to spend $6 million on a closer when we already have a good closer and set-up man.? Hopefully Beinfest will be able to use that money on a 5th starter or catcher/1st baseman. 491088[/snapback] If we can keep benitez for close to what he makes now, keep him. injuries and hopes don't care how much you make or how important you are. 491090[/snapback] Benitez has played himself out of our range he'll make at least 5-6 million next year.
August 3, 200422 yr mota will receive a significant upgrade, no doubt 491085[/snapback] I think I heard somewhere, he'll probably make in the $3-3.5 million range. 491091[/snapback] that would qualify as significant thats 2 million
