Posted October 24, 201311 yr Some quotes from David Samson today via Manny Navarro on Twitter: #Marlins passed on big concert next October "because why would book something when we should be and will be playing playoff games?" "Look what the Red Sox did. They had the same record we did in '12. They turned it around to be in the World Series in '13. Well, it's time for us to do the same." "I promise you this: We're not going to lose 100 games next year. Not close." Said #Marlins will wear red-orange caps in 2014, No. 1 seller. Team didn't wear it all in 2013, only a few '12 games
October 24, 201311 yr Oh Jesus. I understand not booking a concert for next October. Even if you're not going to the playoffs, you can't do something like that and essentially concede that you won't. However, why would you say something as ridiculous as this? Unless they plan on actually stunning us this offseason with some great moves and some great hole-plugging, this is just another one of Samson's dumb comments.
October 24, 201311 yr Author I love it when David Samson says things because it provides more fodder for MB.com inside jokes.
October 24, 201311 yr Haha. So what, only like 95 losses next season? I can just imagine Loria trying to mimic the red sox this off season and signing a bunch of scruffy looking white guys.

October 24, 201311 yr Author I hear we might get Jose Reyes. He's already shopping for a house, I heard.
October 25, 201311 yr I wonder who was going to be in concert. Talking Headssame as it ever was. Just like samson's false optimism. They're not dumb comments, though. They are cleverly manipulating the hard core fans into hoping above all hope that next year will be different. News flash. It won't. Not with this leadership team.
October 25, 201311 yr Clearly all this team is missing to have a Red Sox like turn around are...beards!!
October 25, 201311 yr That he connected the team's intent to wear the orange caps with the fact that they are the #1 seller speaks volumes. Samson is a hustler and will shake us down for every last penny.
October 25, 201311 yr Clearly all this team is missing to have a Red Sox like turn around are...beards!! a few actual ballplayers might help, too. But facial hair is free so Loria will probably go with beards as Plan A.
October 25, 201311 yr Loria is a fan of clean-shaven and well-kept. Beards won't happen. The irony of it all is that, at the end of the day, Loria believes he's running the Yankees.
October 25, 201311 yr From the season ending in "a pile" before the 2012 season to "Well, at least we're not 100 losses bad" before the 2014 season. Always good to hear from Samson.
October 25, 201311 yr He's right though guys, we won't lose 100 games. Jose won't be shut down in September next year, so we're probably good for 3 more wins
October 25, 201311 yr I was looking for an Adeiny thread but couldn't find one so just going to post this year. Looks like Frisaro doesn't understand why Adeiny wasn't a GG finalist. lol. I just told him why and be blocked me Why does this guy hate stats so much?

I just told him why and be blocked me :lol What did you say? Nothing bad. @JoeFrisaro Why would he even be considered? The 3 finalists had far superior numbers than Adeiny @JoeFrisaro Adeiny doesnt even crack the top 10 defensively. He does however crack the top 3 for worst hitters in mlb. #futureallstar
October 25, 201311 yr Maybe the future all star hash tag is what did it (Frisaro has said adeiny is a future all star). lol
October 25, 201311 yr He got mad at me after the 2012 All-Star game for actually help him prove his point about the NL's pitching dominance from 2010-2012 in the ASG. He mentioned that the NL pitching has allowed just 1 run over the last two All-Star games [11 and 12], I chimed in with, "they also only allowed 1 in 2010," he responded with "further proving my point," and I added in one extra tweet, "and that run in 2010 was unearned as a result of the pitcher's own throwing error." He tells me to stop and that the point was already made. I was blocked by Frisaro earlier this year, myself. No need, anyways. JCR and Capozzi are much better, more friendly. Speaking of JCR - anyone know why LoMo doesn't like him?
