August 11, 201511 yr I got that from the rock. He is a current professional wrestler. and a star of a hit series on HBO where Stanton will make a cameo soon!
August 11, 201511 yr This is my favorite new thing Vince. Good work, although I fear the day one will be written about me Stories about things being shoved up your ass are nothing new
August 11, 201511 yr and a star of a hit series on HBO where Stanton will make a cameo soon! as long as there is no Marlins man, hey! Sign me up!
August 11, 201511 yr I got that from the rock. He is a current professional wrestler. Yes. I watch wrestling. Help still needed.
August 11, 201511 yr Yes. I watch wrestling. Help still needed. do you smell what the Vince is cooking?
August 11, 201511 yr do you smell what the Vince is cooking? You're having Marlins Man round for dinner, aintcha? Confess! CONFESS!!
August 11, 201511 yr You're having Marlins Man round for dinner, aintcha? Confess! CONFESS!! that is the furthest from the truth ever imaginable
August 11, 201511 yr I can't believe that Haren and the money to pay him were just tacked onto a deal. I have to imagine that Haren cost the Fish some of the prospects that went into the deal. Plus, which side suggested that LA pay Dees 2 million dollar salary?

And if you choose to not believe what I tell you, then I choose to no longer answer your inquiries. Have a good evening sir.
August 11, 201511 yr Marlins should have done more to keep Hernandez. They overpaid for Gordon as it is, but then again, with how they constantly are trying to recreate the 2003 marlins, this represented Luis Castilo 2.0 Hernandez is a useful piece, not a deal breaker for either side really, nor should he have been. Having said that, paying Heaney alone for Gordon would have been beyond fair. Marlins always having other teams chip in for their finances is stupid when the sport is awash with cash. (though I guess its what the Dodgers do)
August 11, 201511 yr Das "I don't read what people post' Texan true, i'm just trying to build post count.
August 11, 201511 yr true, i'm just trying to build post count. I'll take 5000 posts off you if I feel like it
August 12, 201511 yr The worst thing about Dee is that he just has no interest at all in drawing a walk. Some guys (Uggla comes to mind) even though they're swingers seem to develop it over time. Dee's like JP in that regard, just not his game. His defense looks great and his speed will help the average but he could be even better.
August 12, 201511 yr ok? (and dropping) yeah considering he once led all mlb in WAR being the 7th best 2b shows just how terrible he's been
August 12, 201511 yr ok? (and dropping) The point is that he is a top 10 second baseman in baseball, and probably better. You can't just nullify what he did in April and May. It's a part of his production.
August 12, 201511 yr Kike's got some Ben Zobrist in him. I wish we would have kept him too. Then again, this front office is probably too stupid to use him correctly so whatever. We're stuck with the worst bench ever instead because benches are apparently for "veteran leaders" and "grinders" like Casey McGehee. Or something.
August 12, 201511 yr I'm not talking out of my ass, sir. And if you choose to not believe what I tell you, then I choose to no longer answer your inquiries. Have a good evening sir. not accusing you of talking out of your ass. You said that Marlins didn't want Haren, right? Well how did he wind up (along with the salary to pay him) in the deal? As the Marlins got a good player who's salary was paid for, I have to imagine that the cost to the Marlins was additional top prospects. Can you please share with us in detail how the negotiations went down so we can understand what happened?
August 12, 201511 yr not accusing you of talking out of your ass. You said that Marlins didn't want Haren, right? Well how did he wind up (along with the salary to pay him) in the deal? As the Marlins got a good player who's salary was paid for, I have to imagine that the cost to the Marlins was additional top prospects. Or, conversely, having to take lesser prospects from LA. But yes, it goes without saying that the Marlins "strategy" of requiring teams to swallow salaries of incoming players and even chip in for salaries of outgoing players reduces the quality the Marlins receive in trades. This doesn't require insider sources; it's just common sense. Teams aren't going to take on additional salary out of the goodness of their hearts. The Marlins, by virtue of not paying Haren's salary, reduced their net haul from the trade (by either getting less talent or giving up more talent). It's perfectly reasonable to assume that the Marlins might not have had to relinquish Hernandez (or Barnes--or perhaps gotten a better prospect than Rojas) if they had chosen to take on more salary. I'm surprised this point needs explaining.
August 12, 201511 yr Admin is an asshole and Brooklyn is a cesspool for his kind. I agree. simply put and to the point.
August 12, 201511 yr I agree. simply put and to the point. I thought he really said it at first, I was going to like his post.
