November 14, 201213 yr the marlins signed an agreement to spend all of their revenue sharing money on salary. if im not mistaken, that is about 60-70 million dollars. id love to see how they make that gap up or if they league just lets it go and allows a 25 million dollar payroll. Do you have proof of that? http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/13/sports/baseball/13marlins.html?_r=1& oddly enough this would appear to expire for the 2013 season.
November 14, 201213 yr Shopping Logan makes perfect sense. So does Giancarlo. This team is going to f***ing blow this year and next year and the year following. You might as well get the MLB's top prospects that are due in three years time. Not like Lomo or Giancarlo will be here in three years time... Loria needs to do this because he does no wrong. It would be a brilliant move by the front office and we should feel grateful for their contribution to the fans.
November 14, 201213 yr Buster Olney �@Buster_ESPN Rival execs believe that Logan Morrison will be in a much better position for success once he returns to 1B, his primary position in minors. I wonder if our FO knows he's not a natural OF?

He's the one to build around right now and always and he just turned 23. We could still probably lock him up if Loria desires too. It's just a matter of if he wants to.
November 14, 201213 yr Dude, of course he's the one to build around and of course he would be the prime player to do so with. If you think that Giancarlo Stanton isn't counting the days right now, you're misguided. Plain and simple. Either Loria goes, or Stanton goes.

If you think that Giancarlo Stanton isn't counting the days right now, you're misguided. Plain and simple. Either Loria goes, or Stanton goes. If you offer a young guy like Stanton long term dollar amounts, he'll take it. Hell, even if he wants to be gone he'll take a deal anyway because he knows he'll still get traded. Might as well earn some big bucks now instead of playing the waiting game and hope he doesn't get injured before cashing in.
November 14, 201213 yr Author I think Lomo gets moved to Boston. They need a first baseman and he'll go to them relatively cheap. And I see Ricky heading to Colorado.
November 14, 201213 yr but why would we trade lomo? He's never had a fair shot at his natural position...Oh I know why...

November 14, 201213 yr The Marlins may be cheap, slimy, etc., but they are not stupid. No, you're right. They're f***ing retarded. RE-TAR-DED

November 14, 201213 yr Gorkys Hernandez might be one of the best players on the team soon. He's pretty much guaranteed the CF spot opening day
November 14, 201213 yr I don't like his face. f*** his face. What a sad, miserable f***ing face. He looks like he just got caught f***ing the Marlins lifeless corpse.
November 14, 201213 yr After letting it calm down a tad, I feel a little better about the trade. However ... still pissed.
November 14, 201213 yr Loria is such an asshole: Loria declined to discuss the trade with reporters as he passed through the hotel lobby at the owners meetings in Chicago. "Not today, boys," Loria said. "If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm not going to figure it out for you."
