Marlins GM Dan Jennings: Stanton Will Not Be Traded


Recommended Posts

I have always felt with these things a lot of analysts and commentators love to say the marlins will trade all their good players based of course on history, but also lack of knowledge of how the team and the contracts actually work. They are also fans of big market teams and secretly want these players on their teams.

 

They like to equate the Stanton situation with the Uggla one. Where realistically its much more like Hanley where we wanted to build around him, signed him long term and kept him here for several years. Sure they traded him eventually but after 6 years and after he tanked w the team.

But it's dumb of them to think that next year's team is going to look radically different from the one that finished 2013.

 

No it's not. We're going into the year with a healthy rotation that is established, a solid bullpen with no holes, a healthy LoMo from day 1, Christian Yelich from day 1, Derek Dietrich from day 1, and Marcell Ozuna from day 1. This team should be much improved over last year without any acquisitions at all.

Last year's team lost 100 games so that's not really saying much.

Fair enough, but to say this team won't look radically different is not right. It's a very, very different team.
