A well-earned raise for Mr. Dempster.

Good for him.

He's come a long way from being a sub-par player for us years ago.

congrats to dempster.. class act and frickin hilarious. Nice deal for the cubs.

 

Now quit shaking your glove like a weirdo

The glove shake thing he started doing this year really helped him, and it showed by the impressive numbers he put up. If only he did that when he was with us...

I think he's fine with looking like a weirdo if it makes him pitch better. A very rich weirdo.

He has enough money now to buy your opinion of him.

Won't take much.. a nice tall warsteiner would just about do it :mischief

To me this only confirms that the Marlins are one of the few teams who "gets it".

 

Lavisihing these kinds of guaranteed deals on guys so late in their careers is crazy. I'm not hating on Dempster, good for him. Put a little back into the south Florida economy.

But the Marlins plan of getting highly productive years out of guys while making little money (first 3 years) to somewhat moderate money (Uggla in his arbitration years) and then flipping the player for prospects within a year of FA just makes too much sense. Ofcourse, this plan only works when there are enough teams that throw around big dollars like the big market teams always do.
