I'm not advocating him getting traded, but should it be on the table?

 

Most of us would love David Wright but we all know we don't have the assets.

 

Straight up Ramirez for wright is dumb- but what if we take on Reyes expiring contract and wright and attempt to resign Reyes or trade him?

 

NY would want him because of his cost control contract and value, FLA would want Wright for his veteren presence and somewhat manageable contract.

 

Idk thinking while in rush hour, gotta go-- person in front is pumping the brakes-

Zero chance we would get both especially within the division. Possibly one though. How about we ship Hanley for Justin Upton and whoever else they want to give us and go after Reyes in free agency. if only we didn't give Miggy away for nothing.

I guess we now know why no one on here is a GM.

jesus f***

If you get high ceiling mlb ready or close to mlb ready prospects and if Beinfest will have the $15 million saved on Hanley to spend on other players then I see no reason not to trade him. I would encourage such a trade.

Hanley is having a rough season, but he is a rare talent, the franchise talent.

But it's not only this season. It's the $15 million salary and last season's performance too. In 2010 he regressed to the point where he did not have a "very good" season... he had a "good" season. Even if he returns to the 2010 Hanley, he's not a $15 million a year player. If he returns to the 2009 Hanley, then yes. But that's a risky bet. I would rather have the top MLB ready prospects and the $15 million to spend.

Knowing this FO, we'd probably just get two shaky relievers.

In 2010 he regressed to the point where he did not have a "very good" season... he had a "good" season. Even if he returns to the 2010 Hanley, he's not a $15 million a year player.

 

You mean his .853 OPS 2010 - 2nd in MLB at SS behind only Troy "hey, I get to play at Coors" Tulowitzki - merely "good" season?

I would at least see what the Marlins can get for him. This team has too many holes and all the big talent in the minors is already in the majors. So unless the front office is going to spend some money, trades are the only way to plug holes.

Said it in another thread - Hanley and Infante for Uggla and Gonzalez.

It better, the excuses are over next year. The team is going to find out if Dominguez can play, and if Coghlan can get on base, other than that the team needs to acquire a legit starting pitcher and either a 2B or CF as a minimum. The team should probably line up 3 solid bench players to go with Boni and Baker and a veteran bullpen arm.

But defensively he was horrible. Using the average of Rtot (-8) and Rdrs (-16), he was one of the 3 or 4 worst defensive SS in MLB. His WAR was 3.7 which is good, not very good.

all of you suggesting we should trade him, we would get nowhere near his worth at this point

Yeah, the proposed deals in this thread actually make less sense for the other teams than they do for the Marlins.

Only trade Hanley if Marlins give JJ an extension, and lock up LOMO AND STANTON in the next year or two. If a team is willing to pay a hefty price for Hanley, yes.

JJ is extended for a while.

 

Also LoMo and Stanton are under club control for about 5 more years.

 

So Hanley's contract is actually team friendly (going by his potential if he reverts back to ANY of his previous seasons) and we can easily afford to keep him moving into the new stadium. I think it would be a mistake publicity wise to trade the face of our team. He may not be the best player anymore but he still certainly is the one that people identify with the Marlins.

His WAR was tied for 73rd among all players.

I think that's poor usage of the WAR statistic.

No.

 

And yeah, that's not how you do that OotP. And I'm betting you know that too.

Beat me to it. I'm not against the idea, I've actually pondered it myself lately, but I don't think we'd get all that much for him because, franchise talent or not, he isn't doing anything.

Hell no, he is hitting .500 in the summer.

Looks like I sparked a discussion.

When do you trade him though?

Hell no, he is hitting .500 in the summer.

 

This actually makes sense since we're a summer team.
