I was fine with the Hanley trade and the blue jays trade.

The Rockies package might have been better, but we can't say for sure that the prospects would have actually been worth paying the $5+ million left on Nolasco's salary. It's not like any names were ever thrown around.

 

 

Eh. No excuse IMO if this is true about Rockies prospects being better.

 

 

Based on the pretty dismal return the Marlins got from the Dodgers, don't you think that the return from the Rockies would have needed to be considerably better to justify spending $5-6 million for the players?

 

If you are going to spend that much money on prospects, the talent needs to be pretty damn good.

 

 

 

 

Fair point. I guess I'll reserve further judgement until I see the Rockies offer.

Who cares. Just go out and win tomorrow.

I'd agree with what your saying except for 2 things, our payroll is 36MM, it's not like we couldn't throw some extra money around for better prospects. Secondly, fat piece of s*** does this with every single trade from Hanley to the Blue Jays dumping. He is a cheap disgusting piece of s*** that doesn't care about this team at all

 

 

 

 

The Hanley trade brought us Eovaldi, which was pretty solid IMO.

 

The Blue Jays trade brought us Marisnick, Nicolino, and DeSclafani. They probably make up 3 of our top 4 prospects at this exact moment.

 

Both of those deals were clear salary dumps of decent players (excluding Reyes, who is excellent) with BAD contracts. The fact we got that much talent back is mind boggling.

Ames looks good. Those other two guys are career minor leaguers.

I bet if fat piece of shit put up some money in the Blue Jays deal we could have gotten Travis D'arnaud

And we may not have gotten Marisnick, or Nicolino, or DeSclafani... All whom look pretty damn good.

But but but...Jeff Mathis.

after this, there is NO ONE from the 2010 team on this team now is there?

(keeping in mind that we traded Mike Stanton for Giancarlo Stanton)

And we may not have gotten Marisnick, or Nicolino, or DeSclafani... All whom look pretty damn good.

 

 

No one is saying that we wouldn't get those prospects, what I'm saying is we could get more like someone instead of Escobar or Mathis. Is this really that difficult to understand

Eh. No excuse IMO if this is true about Rockies prospects being better. This move was a salary dump and maybe we get a decent middle RP out of it.

 

Excited for ... to defend this one. If SI was so sure the Rockies prospects were better why the fuck did they not report them and leak a deal? BECAUSE THERE WAS NO DEAL!!!

 

Get your head out of your ass and stop bitching every 5 fucking seconds.

 

For fucks sake, even that dickhead Penguino is making more sense than you.

Ricky was also last player remaining from the 2006 "dream team" everyone on here seems to be so fond of.

Lol!!!

You better watch out or he'll be psychoanalyzing you next!

According to ESPN, Nolasco has been "liberated" from the Marlins.

I think you mean 'terrible team', because as we all know, this 2013 team is totally going to outperform them you guys

According to ESPN, Nolasco has been "liberated" from the Marlins.

 

 

 

It's not like we traded him to the Cardinals. He's on the Dodgers.

Marlins not picking up any of Ricky's salary. Excited to see how that $5.5m gets reinvested

 

Maybe we actually sign Moran. Or hire a number of high-priced hypnotists to work on Stanton.

I dont care who we got back, all I care about is that Jeffrey Loria saved some money. That is all that really matters.

I guess this means Koehler will be back eh? Oof.

Where's gorkys?

Where's gorkys?

 

 

in AAA where he belongs

I find it funny how all of a sudden Ricky's strikeout numbers are up.

 

For two years I complained about his velocity. He went from 92-95 when he came up and had good strikeout numbers then he started throwing 88-90 and the numbers went down.

 

Now hes back up to 90-93 and his strikeouts are up. I noticed he started throwing harder at the end of last year too.

 

That said, I will miss Ricky even though he was so inconsistent at times. All in all he did pretty well.

 

However, none of the pitchers we got back really impress me though Sanchez is supposed to be their number 8 prospect and Ames is 26 but has some really good numbers.

I guess this means Koehler will be back eh? Oof.

 

 

actually I think they are going to start slowey.

Where's gorkys?

 

 

in AAA where he belongsI just ask because these marlins seem to disappear all of a sudden without mention. Gorkys, zack cox, makes me a little worried these new guys from the dodgers won't pan out.
