July 3, 200620 yr Mitre will come back soon. So, Here are some choices. #1. Mitre remains in Marlins as a starter (replaced Moehler or Sanches or Pinto) #2. Mitre remains in Marlins as a reliever (e.g. emergency starter in doubleheader or 2+ innings reliever) #3. Marlins option Mitre to AAA (Sanches, Pinto is better than Mitre) #4. Marlins trade Mitre (will get another CF) ((if necessary, packaged other players)) What do you think about it??
July 3, 200620 yr I want him to replace Moehler, and just release him (Moehler) once he gets off the DL.
July 3, 200620 yr Mitre has no value with his high ERA. So forget trading unless you don't care the CF we receive turn out to be the back up OF for Abercrombie. Send him to AAA for a couple of games and then move him up to SP if he does good in AAA. That the best option
July 3, 200620 yr I'd like to see him get a shot as a reliever, although I realise that would mean we're following the same path as the Cubs. His fastball does have decent movement, and the stuff is there. If you look at the way Logan Kensing has been coached and changed to be a more effective reliever I think its wrong to quit on Mitre at this stage.
July 3, 200620 yr I want him to replace Moehler, and just release him (Moehler) once he gets off the DL. why wait until he's off the DL? i'd have him start in AAA.
July 3, 200620 yr Trade him as fast as you can ...not by coincidence did the Marlins start winning when he went on the DL
July 3, 200620 yr But since you been gone I can breathe for the first time I'm so movin' on, yeah yeah Thanks to you, now I get what I want Since you been gone Get rid of the worthless turd. He, along with every other talentless player, doesnt belong on an MLB team. Just not having him on the team is a significant upgrade.
July 3, 200620 yr I say give him a chance to be a long reliver like a mop up man like Herges send down Kool Aid and release Moe what waste of a roster spots
July 3, 200620 yr Damn, everyone here seem to have forgotten that Mitre WASN'T THE ONLY GUY STRUGGLING!!!! Remember this is still a recontruction year, so this should be the year of experiment. If Nolasco and Olsen made a huge comeback from that monsterous road trip from ATL/TB, then Mitre can too. Beside Mitre was the only SP to have a strong start this year.
July 3, 200620 yr Mitre wasnt brought in as a long term replacement. He was brought in as a stop gap until young guys were ready. He is no different than Moehler in that regard. Discard both, it wont matter, since neither are worth a crap.

July 3, 200620 yr I just said Olivo sucks defensively, which he does. Neither Moehler or Mitre are good pitchers. Why keep them?
July 3, 200620 yr I just said Olivo sucks defensively, which he does. Neither Moehler or Mitre are good pitchers. Why keep them? :blink: tell that to the Red Sox pplayers trying to steal on him he also really hasent had any problems blocking the ball and calling a good game
July 3, 200620 yr hey Hermida Rules it seems like every f***in marlin is not good enough to be in mlb. DUDE U DONT KNOW WHAT THE HELL UR TALKING ABOUT. OHH YEAH AND I FORGOT HOW BAD OLIVO IS AT DEFENSE.. HAVE U EVEN BEEN WATCHING Before Mitre's last start he "struggled" with a 3.82era thank u ramp
July 3, 200620 yr I like Moehler. A strong arm doesnt make you good defensively, that's Olivo's problems. Mitre really doesnt belong in MLB. He was a Cubs cast off most likely forced on us as part of the Pierre trade. It's cool you mention the start before last with the 3.82 ERA...when the start before the start with a 3.82 ERA he had a 4.56 ERA. Just face it, Mitre is not good. He has no future here. Why keep him?
July 3, 200620 yr It's cool you mention the start before last with the 3.82 ERA...when the start before the start with a 3.82 ERA he had a 4.56 ERA. So he was improving before he got hurt?
July 3, 200620 yr Not improving. Plain bad. For whatever reason, he didnt pitch that horribly on the road(abberation) but Mitre is complete garbage at Dolphin Stadium. He has no place on this team now or in the future.
July 3, 200620 yr I just said Olivo sucks defensively, which he does. Neither Moehler or Mitre are good pitchers. Why keep them? :blink: tell that to the Red Sox pplayers trying to steal on him he also really hasent had any problems blocking the ball and calling a good game I have no dog in the fight, or have any clue how Olivo is defensively, but he was throwing out Trot Nixon and Manny Ramirez.
July 3, 200620 yr The problem with you Hermida Rules27 is that you have preconceived opinions of both Olivo, and Mitre from when they were with other teams. Not because you have seen them play but because you only look at stats. You haven't paid attention to their play in a Marlins uniform. Olivo has been very good both offensively, and defensively. I wouldn't even be surprised if the Marlins sign him to a 2 or 3 year contract considering the lack of depth in the catching department we have in the minors. Mitre has alot of talent and is still relatively young. I think he is 25. Most pitchers don't peak until they are 28 or 29 years of age. To say he is crap is very ignorant.
July 3, 200620 yr Isn't the logical thing to do regarding Mitre is assess him when he comes back, goes and does a few rehab starts and make a determination based on our needs at the moment whether he's needed as a starter, a reliever or tradebait? Why the need to even discuss this now? It's like starting a thread on whether Jacob Marceaux should be slotted to start or relieve. These things play themselves out.
July 3, 200620 yr The problem with you Hermida Rules27 is that you have preconceived opinions of both Olivo, and Mitre from when they were with other teams. Actually, the problem with him is that he has the IQ of goat cheese
