November 26, 200322 yr pudge castillo lowell 2 of those 3 men will be back. enc is gone. redman penny pavano 2 of those 3 men will be back. all other SPs are safe. my guess is, finding a decent SP should be pretty high in our offseason priority list along with upgrading the bullpen. to tell you the truth, i don't really see how easily we can procure a "decent" SP considering how little he would have to be paid. ideas, anyone? i can't imagine why they wouldn't be able to keep all the starters, ESPECIALLY if they lose Pudge/Castillo/Lowell as you predict.
November 26, 200322 yr I know the FutureGM, but someone said the marlins should wait around for his market value while thats not likely possible
November 26, 200322 yr C Pudge (Eventually Boras and Pudge realize no one is willing to pay him money he seeks) 1b Choi 2b Castillo 3b Lowell SS Gonzales LF Conine CF Pierre RF Cabrera The entire starting pitching staff will be back and AJ will most likely be closer when he is back. This is what I'm hoping for, and it'd be nice to pick up a good, cheap, right-handed 1b or LF to fill in for Choi when we face lefties.
November 26, 200322 yr I know the FutureGM, but someone said the marlins should wait around for his market value while thats not likely possible Exactly. If they plan on keeping him, what are they waiting for?
November 26, 200322 yr Author I know the FutureGM, but someone said the marlins should wait around for his market value while thats not likely possible Exactly. If they plan on keeping him, what are they waiting for? Waiting for Boras to lower his demand and see what kind offer if any other teams put on the table for Pudge.The Marlins are just playing the waiting game.There no rush to make an offer.
November 26, 200322 yr Waiting for Boras to lower his demand and see what kind offer if any other teams put on the table for Pudge. Who cares what his "demands" are. It's what we offer him, not what he wants. The Marlins are just playing the waiting game.There no rush to make an offer. Umm... Yes, actually, there is.

Yes, actually, there is.Why the rush?To set a standard for other to bid?No need ... It doesn't matter if the offer is 2 year/10millions dollar contract.
November 26, 200322 yr Why the rush?To set a standard for other to bid?No need ... Umm... Why rush? Because we have two weeks to get a deal done. That's why.

November 26, 200322 yr The fact that the marlins seem to be very interested in keeping Lowell and Castillo and every pitcher not named Urbina, but are quiet about Pudge is making me wonder how much they want to keep him.
November 26, 200322 yr The fact that the marlins seem to be very interested in keeping Lowell and Castillo and every pitcher not named Urbina, but are quiet about Pudge is making me wonder how much they want to keep him. Exactly. Minus, your theory makes no sense what so ever.

Exactly. Minus, your theory makes no sense what so ever. Well the silence and lack of rumors about the marlins talking contract with Pudge when they should be seriously trying to sign him by now is making me wonder when or if they will make a serious run at signing him.

There's no silence or lack of rumors. It's just that the rumors are of him leaving Florida.

November 26, 200322 yr I think Castillo can be resigned for $21M over 4 years. And if Boras and Pudge act fast they might get a 3 year deal with $8M per year from the Marlins instead of waiting all winter for another one year deal. Burnett's contract can be cut by atmost 20% under the CBA. As long as Encarnacion and Redman don't net any expensive acquisitions, I think we'll be able to meet $60M, or $49M plus the $11M in backloaded contracts.

No one is going to offer him what he's asking for. So Wild Card where do you think Pudge will end up?
November 26, 200322 yr I haven't seen any rumors of Pudge going to any other team. Are you illiterate? So Wild Card where do you think Pudge will end up? I don't know, and you know what, I really could care less.
November 26, 200322 yr Mines is this.......... 1.Pierre 2.Castillo 3.Cabrera 4.Vlad 5.Lowell 6.Choi or niner 7.Santiago 8.Gonzalez 9.Pitcher
November 26, 200322 yr Are you illiterate? You said there isn't a lack of rumors. So where are they? all I've read is that Pudge hasn't been offered a contract. I don't know, and you know what, I really could care less. That's what I thought.
