pollythewog Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 So is it technically signed Lawrence? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 That's up to you to decide, it's done. Whether he's physically signed it, we don't know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canada-marlin24 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I just wish the opt out was after the 6th year. He owes us that much I think. Now lets get to other business like getting rid of Garret Jones $5 million and getting Adam LaRoche? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 It is not a sure thing that the opt-out is after 2019, it may be after 2020 though most agree it's after 2019. And yeah he owes the Marlins nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiamiNative0722 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 What a change. We went from the cheapest franchise in sports, to giving the largest contract any sport has ever seen. Well Done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 He doesn't owe use shit and we should be jumping for joy we get at least 5 more years of him. Agreed. This deal was perfect for Stanton and the Marlins. The 13-year, $325 Million gives Stanton lifetime security (just in case) and it gives the Marlins some much needed positive PR. But the terms are smoke and mirrors, because the odds are this is a 5-year, $125-135 Million deal, which is exactly what we (I) thought it would be. And there's nothing wrong with that, honestly. Great job by the organization, great deal for Stanton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erick Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I have to be honest. I like that Stanton projects to be here for a long time now, but the fact that Loria did this makes me like him even less. One player just got more than the payrolls of our teams from the last five years combined. At least he did what he had to do now I guess.

Pretty much confirms he doesn't lose money and probably never has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pollythewog Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Also helps that two of the teams that Stanton would actually like to be traded to (red sox/dodgers) actually have the players to make it happen.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CYmarlins Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Press conference I am assuming will be on Fox Sports Florida and MLB Network will also have coverage. My question is about the opt out clause. So if he doesn't opt out after 2019 or 2020 when its due, does that lock him in for the remaining years or can he opt out again? I know the contract of Elvis Andrus has a couple opt outs, just wasn't sure how many Stanton had in this contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ren83 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I hope he stays healthy and they build a good team around him (lock Yelich, Ozuna and Alvarez long term) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Details aren't out yet, everything thus far has said one opt-out so if he didn't opt-out he'd then be locked in but that's not confirmed.
