Iowa Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 You gotta think the Yankees will be throwing a lot of money in his face.. somewhere in the 10 million a year range I would think.. I'm thinking it will be hard to keep him. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 I could see him taking 7-8 mil per from us even if offered 10 mil per elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geemoney Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Didn't we talk about how much of a pay cut Pudge would take to stay with us? My answer to the question, "how much of a paycut will Pavano take?": Zero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSwift25 Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 The question isn't how much money he'll leave on the table, we know that never works. If we don't have Carl locked up before November 15th, he ain't coming back. Hopefully we learned from the Pudge mistake, and we've learned that we need to give him his money before other teams can offer to him (even though Pudge was different, I know). Either way, we've got to offer him arby, so we'll have time to talk to him, and something to show if he leaves. Plus, that money doesn't need to go to Pavano, it just needs to go to making our team better. Will it suck if he leaves? Yes, but he is more replaceable than some other aspects of this team that may be leaving (Lo Duca). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarlinFan10 Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Pavano won't take a paycutt, he'll get more money wherever he goes. He just wont as much as a raise with the marlins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accord Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Pavano will go where he can get the most money, it's just that simple. He's already got a ring and has stated before on Marlins On Deck in an interview with Craig that he is planning for the future and for a family and that money is definitely the main deciding factor, even though he doesn't like talking about it publicly. Pavs already has a championship ring, so now it's all about the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skully Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 I really think he'd take less to stay here. He's publicly said how greatful he is to the Marlins ownership for giving him his chance and he's also said how much he likes playing here.... How much does that really mean is yet to be seen, but I have faith he'll be a Marlin next year.... Besides, when we traded Penny, I'm sure it was with the intention of having more money to keep Pavano. We knew one of them was gonna be gone next year. The trade answered that question for me.

Wild Card Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Pavano has made it clear he enjoys this team, and the Marlins are his first choice. It's all going to come down to whether the Yanks or Sox offer him five years and Florida offers him two or three. He's going to go where he has more security.

So don't think that getting rid of Penny is equal to keeping Pavano. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batato Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 I feel we MUST keep him if we are to contend next season....If we didn't give up penny, then I would say its ok to risk losing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the fact Pudge had been with this front office for 1 season and Pavano has been with them for years. They also gave him his first real chance. Loyalty does mean something to some. Not everyone is greedy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He, like everyone else, has seen how one Loria franchise has fallen, does he want to latch himself onto another Loria franchise that doesn't get a stadium deal? :mischief2 Loria's goal in life is to get a MLB team and a stadium for them. So far he is 0-1, and that 1 happens to be the Expos that he ran into the ground, and people are suing him for it now. What happens if the Marlins don't get their stadium? At least Wayne sold the team when he lost intrest in them before completely destorying them for years to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Das Texan Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Pavano is one of Loria's guys. Unless the Yankees or any other team offers him something stupid, he will be a Marlin again next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trade answered that question for me. 575975[/snapback] He has said he would prefer to say in South Florida than go anywhere else. So Pudge might have said the same thing, but Beinfest never really tried to keep Pudge. It's not even certain that they oferred the 21 million dollar contract. Pavano has all the reasons to stay here, he has good relations with Loria, his career made a dramatic turn for the better while in Florida and he might feel alot more comfortable about it continuing to suceed while he is in Florida, he won a Championship ring here and the Fish with him will continue to field a competitive team year in and year out. How much is this preference worth to him? I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him take a couple million less a year to stay here than go to New York.

Teal Shadow Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Here's how it'll play out ...Pavano and the Marlins will begin talking a soon as the season is over. The Marlins IMO will not go pass 7mil/yr, Pav knows he can't squeeze the organization for ever last penny, He could take a similar contract to that of Lowells. Yankees are the only team that scares me, they could almost double the Marlins' offer. Which could make it tough for Carl to turn down. What would Plan B be, if Carl walks? I could see a trade for someone like a Joe Kennedy or a Tony Armas jr(I think his a free agent). Inside the organization Hutchinson or Kensing will get there shot at the spot. My bet is they'll make a move outside the organization. Also if Carl walks Armando will be offer contract to retain him. We'll know more at the end of the season.

Ramp Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 Id rather not pay Pavano more than $7mil per I dont know why but I dont think he will be this good anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teal Shadow Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 Hey ramp, I disagree Carl has good stuff, not great, but good. What makes Carl so good this season is knowing his opp., knowing his weakness and strengths. That has come with experience, if you notice the guys that have hurt Carl this season have been players he's never faced. The Expos' Church took him deep last homestand, the kid in Colorado took him yard at the Pro this summer. I'm not saying only rookies have taken him deep or have hurt Carl all year...but more times than not Carls been hurt by the lack of knowing the players. Will Carl win 17 or 18 ever year? No but what is a pitcher that can eat up innings and give you 13-16 wins a year worth? Carl is a very solid pitcher, He's worth it bud...nice to hear from you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Fry Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 Any team that pays Carl $10 million/year is nuts, and the Marlins should gladly let him go. I'd rather take the money for Carl and use it to lock Burnett up. Carl's never going to have a year like this again. I don't give the guy more than a 3 year/$21 million deal.
