July 30, 201313 yr I could see Ruggiano and Qualls getting traded, they'll probably keep Dobbs. Could see them trading Webb too, hopefully Polanco and Pierre go
July 30, 201313 yr Hold your laughter, but... Buster Olney �@Buster_ESPN 1h The Marlins are gauging interest in Juan Pierre and Placido Polanco.
July 30, 201313 yr Unless someone offers big for someone, they're going to stick with what they've got. Frisaro or someone said the other day that they want to safeguard their young starter's win so they can develop a winning mentality and feel good about themselves etc. Can't argue with that.
July 30, 201313 yr I know some here want the fish to lose a lot so they can get a top draft pick but I agree with the Marlins' mindset here. Win as many possible so these kids can learn how to win more and more. Could make for a quicker path back to October.

I agree with it as well, I've only ever made Rodon jokes as a way to deal with the many losses.
July 30, 201313 yr Hold your laughter, but... Buster Olney �@Buster_ESPN 1h The Marlins are gauging interest in Juan Pierre and Placido Polanco. I couldn't help but laugh....man Pierre sucks.
July 30, 201313 yr Wasn't Pierre on the benches on a few World Series winners like the Giants a couple years ago? Maybe they're testing how much interest people have in a good luck charm.
July 31, 201313 yr Probably won't do anything tomorrow. If anyone goes, I'm betting on Qualls or Webb.
July 31, 201313 yr Maybe Cishek. Considering the way Redmond used him tonight, it's pretty clear that his health is not important.
July 31, 201313 yr Juan Pierre is worth a low-level minors arm that might have a future in the pen, especially to an AL team that has no need to ever start him and can save him for bunts and pinch running in tight playoff contests.
July 31, 201313 yr Maybe Cishek. Considering the way Redmond used him tonight, it's pretty clear that his health is not important. I was furiously yelling at the TV/redmond last night when he A) put him out there for inning 2 and B) proceeded to leave him in for almost 38 pitches. Such an asshole move red.
July 31, 201313 yr I hope someone miraculously wants JP or polanco but I doubt it. Still, just wanted to point out what a difference this year's July 31 is compared to past years for the fish. Its almost strange to be so inactive but considering the reasons, I love it.
July 31, 201313 yr Rosenthal tweeted yankees still looking For 3B. Marlins still expect interest in Polanco. Yanks cool to the idea. I wonder what Beinfest pitch is when talking to teams about Palanco?
July 31, 201313 yr I think polanco would be a perfect fit for the Yanks. Do it. Slap singles guy with no speed or power and below avg defense?
July 31, 201313 yr I think polanco would be a perfect fit for the Yanks. Do it. Slap singles guy with no speed or power and below avg defense? Yep, im being sarcastic just cuz I wanna see him gone. If we somehow convince the Yankees, or anyone really, to give us anything for him, I'd love that.

July 31, 201313 yr Who gets traded? Hopefully Redmond. I don't care if we have to pay all of his salary. What's Red making anyway? $18.50 an hour?
