Season is in the bag


Recommended Posts

Although I think hard-luck and injuries had a lot to do with it, this season is basically out of reach. I thought that if we could be .500 or better at the end of the Mets series we get back in it, but that is no longer possible.

 

The Marlins have (IMO) a few decent trade pieces:

 

Vazquez: He's gotten his act together and can likely hold down the bottom of a contender's rotation. She should be able to bring 1 decent prospect with some 'what the hell, give em a try' additions

 

Nunez: There are several contenders that need bullpen help, and he should bring a decent prospect in return, hopefully either a CF or young pitcher

 

Infante: A excellent bench player that can help out at lots of positions and hit OK

 

Dobbs: A valuable LH bench bat

Vazquez has a no-trade clause, I think?

 

 

Correct. But I'm not sure if he can waive it or not. I'm sure he would if he could get the opportunity to play on a contender and possibly get back into the post season. Problem is, he would be a pretty expensive SP to add and might not be considered an upgrade by most other contenders.

 

The other 3 pieces on the other hand are extremely valuable and should be moved.

I would like to us to keep Dobbs for atleast one more year. He has been one of our more consistent guys especially off the bench. I would hope to keep atleat one bat off thr bench we can count on. The question is if he can keep up the production. I just can't think of anyone at the moment that would make up his production. I wouldn't be surprised if they try to get Bonifacio to start in the infield depending on who gets traded.

as nice as Dobbs is off the bench..if you get a halfway decent offer you have to trade him pronto. Dobbs is not going to be the missing link to our success next season. And if the fish want him that badly they can resign him as a UFA in the offseason as i'm guessing he's on a one year deal. It would make no sense to hang onto dobbs at all sir. And to the person who said Vazquez wants to sucker someone into giving him a three year deal I find that highly unlikely as he turned down more money and a longer deal from the Cubs in order to sign with the fish if I remember correctly. He was quoted as saying he wants to take it year by year from here on out in his career.

If Im vasquez I stay on the marlins. Low pressure pitching for one year in a pitchers park. I would just work on my stats so I could sucker some team in the offseason to give me a 3yr deal for too much money.

 

The Braves ? How great would it be if they took him back. I wish we could fool those jerks.
