He's said he would like to play here, and now mlbtraderumors has him ranked as the 27th best free agent, predicting he ends up playing here.

Your thoughts? I don't want him, personally.

Meh, not the most exciting name out there, but I guess he's be better than Davis/Hayes

He's terrible defensively and his offense has been declining

Earned over $6m last season, so no. For $2.5-3m then yeh I would take him here. Provides reasonable offense for a catcher thats not in the top tier.

I just don't see how this makes much sense, really. I don't even know why the Marlins would be rumored. On top of the fact that he's not that good, he's also a Type A free agent. He'll probably be overpaid, and we'd have to give up a top draft pick, as well. It doesn't sound like something the Marlins would do...especially for an A.J. Pierzynski.

 

I'm hoping the Marlins don't sign a catcher; I'm not a fan of any of the FA catchers. Hopefully, they're able to trade for one.

I'm anxious to see what Davis can do in ST. Couldn't tell how well he handled pitchers last season but he threw out runners, got some timely hits, and has some pop in his bat. Unfortunately his stay didn't seem long enough to reach any firm conclusions.

I'm hoping we don't do this.

Hell No.

 

I don't like him personally because he a bit of an asshole but baseball wise he's bad defensively and has declined each season at the plate.

 

Not Worth the Money, we could hopefully get the same for less money with Paulino and a hopefully healthy Baker.

 

Also How many games into next season in Ronnie suspended til?

Hell No.

Something like 10 or so. It really isn't so much. I think the big deal here is whether the Marlins want to keep a guy who was on a banned substance.

H to the E to the Double L NO!!!!!! He's such a douche, besides Bonds my least favorite player of all-time.

Personal feelings aside he's getting old and he makes too much money, money better spent on other things, not really liking the prospect of going into camp with a Davis/Hayes mix butdefinetly a pass on this.

Ugh.. not a fan. Though he did play well down the stretch last year

Is he one of Ozzie's boys? If so, COME ON DOWN!!

For the right price why not? Hes a better option then anyone catcher on the club. I wouldnt over pay him that is for sure. Defense is a tad shaky but he can handle a staff. has some attitude which I think the club could use...

I'd rather just insert someone who can play defense. Its time to start helping the pitching staff with building a better defensive core.

Very True.

Because it's not going to be for the right price.

And, if healthy, I think I'd actually rather have Baker.

Not really.

Then f*** Him.

Apparently, everyone seems to think he'll land here...

It wouldn't make much sense unless th Marlins are looking to recklessly spend. Isn't Napoli a nontender candidate? Wed be better off spending on him.

This.

 

I have to agree, and with signing Perry Hill, maybe this will be the year we get a lot better.

and besides that, he is a Ft. Lauderdale kid. So it would be a homecoming for him.

Is John Baker's career over or something? He's just as good, only much cheaper.

The only reason to want Pierzynski is to cut down on team strikeouts. He's also left-handed, for what it's worth. Not worth all the money + draft pick, though. I hope these people are wrong.

I agree. Enough also can't be said at what a noodle arm he has. I'm also not sure I want this massive douche handling our young staff.. although from what I've gathered is he is a "love him if he's on your team" type of guy. Though it may be hard to love a guy who probably will hit .240 next year with 5 HRs and terrible defense.
