Possible Mid-Season Trades

Featured Replies

The Marlins have had a history of making big mid-season trades under Admin Beinfest. Two years ago, he acquired Ugueth Urbina and Jeff Conine to make it to the World Series. Last year, he got a solid catcher in Paul LoDuca, fireballer and former Gagne setup man Guillermo Mota and Juan Encarnacion. There is no reason not to believe that the Marlins could make some trades in the mid-season. Here is who I believe the Marlins have expressed interest in trading.

OF Juan Encarnacion

1B Jason Stokes

3B Joe Dillon

1B/OF Jeff Conine

SP Barry Zito

RP Solomon Torres

OF Bobby Higginson

One deal that has been thoroughly discussed is between the Marlins and Athletics. I have heard several rumors that the Marlins could possibly trade either Juan Encarnacion or Jeff Conine, Ismael Valdez, and Jason Stokes to Oakland to acquire Barry Zito and Eric Brynes. This would be a significant trade if the Marlins could then reach a dealo with Barry Zito for a four to five year deal. Another deal that has been discussed is RP Nate Bump to Pittsburgh for RP Solomon Torres. He is a great setup man.

 

What are a few trades that you think could happen?

One trade I'm looking forward to is moving up to infield box seats for a game later this month from my usual Fish Tank. I'm going to also ask for a fan giveaway to be named later, but I might have to throw in a little cash to balance the deal out. We'll send it in pending commissioner approval later this week. Sportscenter's going to have a 5 minute piece on it and everything.

Are you going to be using 'Special money' for this deal? :mischief2

where do you come up with this s***?

 

if Zito is moved to the Fish, you better believe we give up a package involving Stokes, Olsen, Hermida, Vargas, Tank, Willingham, Aguila, Bazardo... some mixture of prospects right there

 

Beane, like most GMs, would not move Zito for Niner/Enc, Valdez and Stokes

 

that is absurd

It's not even opening day yet. A little early to be speculating about midseason trades.

My exact thought.

After we acquire Zito...he should be signed to a 4 year, $32.4 milion dollar contract, right?

 

:whistle

that way we could let aj walk or trade him because we wouldn't be able to afford him either..hey maybe we could use some of the money from the tax break if we get it...... :whistle

Does anyone know the current payroll situation for the Marlins this year? Given their history, I would guess any future trades would involve players and not cash.
