pollythewog Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Not sure why the other one got locked, but how bout this juicy news nugget: The Marlins might have interest in Pirates first baseman Ike Davis, Andy Martino of the New York Daily News writes. The Marlins already have another former Pirates first baseman, Garrett Jones, under contract for 2015, but Jones is 33 and coming off a second consecutive near-replacement-level season. The Pirates, meanwhile, may wantPedro Alvarez (who suffered from serious throwing issues at third base in 2014) to play first in 2015, which would leave nowhere for Davis, particularly since he and Also, how many posts before this thread turns into a wild card vs the board match?

SilverBullet Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Yeah this seems crazy even for the Marlins FO. If they like Garrett Jones they'll keep him. If they think he needs to be replaced why do it with the same type of player. I see no sense in this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 No thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 No thanks. You are so dense, don't you know anything about baseball, are you ... ... oh, wait, you're not defending the idea of getting him. Wild Card used Confusion. It's Super Effective! Board is Confused! Board hurt itself in its confusion! Board fainted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Adam Lind is a name that might get thrown around. Contract still good for 2 years about 16 mil. Does he interest anyone? Notsomuch? Still would have to platoon with Baker or whoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would be amazing to have if he would NEVER bat against lefties, but we know how our Fearless Leader seems to take months to understand platoons, so...

You don't know that. The FO made promises to Garrett Jones that Mike Redmond probably hated to keep, but had to for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 The fact that Wild Card does not want Ike Davis makes me think hes probably a player worth targeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FutureGM Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Yeah Davis is basically a younger Jones. Pretty much a lateral move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
