LoMo on the block a year too f***ing late!!! A's wanted LoMo last year for Gio!!

 

 

hell yeah we needed some GOOD Cubans on this team! not this mediocre B.S we just got back!

 

What are you talking about? We got Adeiny

 

Buena Mierda.

So, what could we get for Nolasco, Morrison, and Escobar? i would think something decent.

I'd like for them to send them away AND money to pay for their salaries and see if we can get something decent. They should shell out cash for prospects at this point, if they're trading everyone away.

What if everyone boycott's fan fest? that won't happen, but what if........

lolololololololol

Wont happen? People aren't going to boycott... they're just not gonna show up. Nobody gives a sh*t man.

aren't there usually players at fanfest?

LOL

i still think people will show up for fanfest......

Seems like the FO is resolved to rid themselves of any player that's unlikely to outperform the contract they receive. All the players traded here fit that bill. JJ and Boni and Buck I wish the best. Reyes produced well enough for his contract but after watching him for a year I'm convinced he wasn't giving it his all. Buehrle was fine for his price, but he's reached the rent-a-player stage for contending teams. We still have a somewhat decent base of players we'll grow to like even more as they over-achieve their contracts, and we still have STANTON to build the whole team around. I'm expecting more than ever for that big virtually lifetime contract with the numbers I've proposed, a number most of you ridicule to be offered to him. As fans, we can only hope he accepts.

LOL. Yeah, maybe now we'll see that market rate 10 years, $200 million contract offer.

We were ridiculing that number because it would be insane to give a 22 year old with 2.5 years in the league and a compiling injury history a 10 year deal worth 200 million.

 

However, if we wait another year or two, he might want that.

Suckage...

For the record, it was more clearly proposed by me as 10/150(backended) with incentives that could bring it up to 200+. Incentives that nobody would deny him if they were hit. Still over market for sure. We'll see. The franchise certainly has the money now. And the FO could use the good press and the player to build a fanbase around.

I'd agree and think that if he has a breakout injury free year, he just might put it all together akin to Willie Mays in 1954, after his 2 1/2 years in the bigs. Then what? 10/150-200 becomes under-market.

.

I don't see what choice the franchise has right now other than to go all-in with that possibilty, and keep and build on the one star, potential HOF superstar they have.

.

I love how Samson says we now have a left side of the infield. I think Jose Reyes and Emilio bonifacio would make a better left side than younel Escobar and adeiny hechavarria......don't you think?

 

And Reyes and boni would may have cost about 13 million next year.

Stanton will never accept 10/200. Why? Because the Marlins will never offer him that amount of money.

 

They'll do one of two things with Stanton. Either trade him after a couple arbitration years or offer him a fair contract comparable to other young players in which case he either accepts or denies.

Exactly.

 

If $200 million is clearly an above market rate, I don't know why it keeps getting proposed as potentially viable.

im done with the marlins for now...but who knows what next season will bring, look at 2003. Did we expect a bunch of no bodies to come through at the end and win the WS?? It could happen again with the right managment.

Lowell, Pudge, Castillo, Beckett, Lee were nobodies?

 

You think those names belong next to Gorkys Hernandez?

Since the Yankees are reportedly interested in Nolasco. Would a Nolasco for Nova deal sound good enough?

So are we to expect many more moves?

Ricky is gone for sure. Logan is still 50-50, they say Miami is shopping Logan

Think about it...imagine trying to market this team....it's a daunting prospect, not much to market and you have to fall back on marketing the stadium experience over the team. There's really no choice but to market our potential superstar STANTON. What they pay "over-market" can be justified by the value of the marketing angle. And you can't put a price on the 2000 incremental asses that are in seats just because of Stanton...oh wait, you can put a price on that.

With Nolasco soon to be gone their payroll ill be $8m.

 

Nope. Not even close.

 

Escobar 5 million

Hechavarria 1.75

Dobbs 1.5

Mathis 1.5

Turner 1.5

20 other guys ~10

 

That's about 21.25, give or take.

 

Next they'll spend some money plugging holes. And also probably on Stanton.

How the hell did Hechavarria get a 4 year 10 million contract after only 143 major league at bats?????

I want his agent!

The Red Sox made a push for Josh Johnson and Jose Reyes, but the Blue Jays just blew the Marlins away, a source tells Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe

 

If the jays blew the fish away, I wonder how utterly terrible the sox offer was

 

Peter Gammons �@pgammo

Middlebrooks, Doubront, Bogaerts + had to be in Boston deal

Damn that is alot better than the cuban duplex we are getting from Toronto !@#$%!
