Jorge Cantu Traded to Rangers

Featured Replies

AND STAY OUT! :whistle

people shouldnt forget how much jorge helped us and the power he gave to our lineups the last 2.5 years. he saved plenty of games with his glove at first base.

 

def will miss him.

 

btw isnt it funny how people write that cantu was traded to a contender, implying that the marlins are not contenders, while when dan haren goes to the angels who are at .500, 8.5 out of the west and 12.5 out of the wild card, hes traded to a "contender".

Yea, but look at the circumstances. The Angels were at .500, 8.5 out of the west and 12.5 out of the wild card and they just added Dan Haren. Apart from the fact that they added a pitcher, they themselves are spending to get better for this season. We haven't really done anything, except trade away a 3B that won't make or break our season - and we got a few arms that'll help sometime after this year.

haren is under contract for the next few years. that move was more for the future than anything.

true but we are definitely more of a contender than they are. and really i think cantu was moved just to get morrison into the lineup like beinfest said.

AND STAY OUT! :whistle

 

Come on, you like De La Soul. At least Cantu's only been bad for 3 months.

Burrrrnnnn

Actually the Angels are supposed to be sellers now that they had another serious injury to an SP.

I was referring to the way it was seen at the time. Obviously now they're screwed.

True. Although most were somewhat confused by this move because they didn't consider the Angels legit contenders even though the Angels themselves seemed to.

I think sometimes the big town teams make moves just to do something, to make the season ticket fans happy. It makes it look like the team is trying.

What a shame, I'll miss ya Jorge.

 

I hope he one day returns as a Marlin, although I think from this point that probably wont happen.

AND STAY OUT! :whistle

:lol

 

Something is terribly wrong in this world.

OMG Povareda just had Tommy John surgery, the other kid looks pretty good though

 

 

Yeah, that was why he was available...

Also, did you just fuse him with Aaron Poreda? :lol

While his performances in recent months were extremely disappointing, he did a good job over the past 2 seasons, and contributed a hell of a lot more to the Marlins than Jose Castillo (main rival in ST 2008) ever would of.

I will always love him for the game he was Mic'd up for.

 

 

A PERFECT GAME! A TRIPLE PLAYYY!

 

Someone needs to find video of that clip!

Cantu made fun of the Scott Stapp song?

 

I kind of wish the Marlins hadn't traded him now.

Yeah. Cantu, Maybin and I forget who else.

Pretty sure it was Uggla.
