CYmarlins Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 According to sources, the Marlins have had serious discussions with former Pirates first baseman Garrett Jones, a left-handed hitter who has hit between 15 and 27 homers each of the past five seasons with Pittsburgh. There is interest on both sides and a two-year deal is being worked on. Read more here: http://miamiherald.typepad.com/sports-buzz/2013/12/media-column-thoughts-on-coverage-of-incognitomartin-broadcast-notes.html#storylink=cpy I will PASS on a 2 year deal. Especially if he was estimated to make $5 million + in Arb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 You know, I wouldn't hate it if they signed Napoli and put LoMo in left, Yelich in Center while Ozuna gets another year to work in the minors... I've seen enough of LoMo in LF for a lifetime. Ozuna is ready anyway I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotcorner Posted December 6, 2013 Author Share Posted December 6, 2013 not sure why we'd swap our 26 year-old struggling lefty 1B with another team's struggling 32 year-old lefty 1B. I don't really think he's that bad if you platoon him, he's hit well vs RHP over his career. But again not sure what the point would be.

Lomo can't handle left and he'd probably just get injured out there again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
