I'm not saying I bought into his TV image. He's actually an awful interviewee anyway. I have no idea why FS Florida always puts him in the booth. He's so poorly spoken that I think it wouldn't provide them much of a ratings boost.

 

 

I'd just like to add that it's a little scary that the only source saying there's no way he's traded is Scoop. Scoop is the best at being wrong. 

 

 

So jose is going to turn heel at our next pay per view: opening day. He will give up 8 runs to the tigers, then moon the crowd.

He's going to chokeslam Brad Hand through a table. 

 

 

For the record, I've always thought Jose was a fucking prima donna jackass.

 

Damn talented but a fucking jackass that needs a dose of humility and adulthood.

 

Kinda what happens with a kid that young though achieving the success he has had.

Is he going to tell Joe West to blow him after get thrown out of the game?

If anything he will probably befriend him. Then i will be really pissed.

No but he will to mattingly

 

 

Scoop has a solid point about Mattingly. This team isn't led by Jennings or Redmond anymore. And this is the kinda stuff we've heard Mattingly excels in.

Honest question, what is difficult about the quoting system? I need to know so I can try and improve it or pass along feedback to the developers anyway.

 

I literally just clicked "Quote" under your post and it appeared in this reply window where I typed under it.

The quotes are a bitch at times, especially if you are trying to delete something you tried to quote and then changed your mind on later on or simply hit the quote button my mistake.

 

 

If you want to do something that simple, I think it works. But if you want to modify things, it's too sensitive. Like if you cut and paste text, it preserves the white background.

When you paste that, it doesn't pop up a line saying "Remove formatting"?

Ah yes, confirmed that bug. Thanks

 

 

Is it fucked up that I want the fire to spread? It's like a controlled burn. Yeah it sucks we're on fire but the result will be good. Burn, Loria, burn.

 

You scare me

And everyone was making fun of me that i submitted a quote reply that had nothing in it.

 

 

LOL ^ I just thought you were trolling.

 

Hanley was a complete douche but we loved him... as a player. As long as you perform on the field that is all we as fans can ask for. I root for the Marlins, not the players. I love Giancarlo, Gordon, Fernandez etc, but if they were to get traded or sign somewhere else I would still root for this team. I know a lot of us would too.

 

Jose Fernandez is a horrible interviewee he says the same crap over, granted they ask him the same crap about coming back from TJ surgery. He does come off as a douche, but the guy probably just wants to get away sometimes. The day Scott Boras became his agent is the day we all knew he wasn't going to be here long term.

 

Does he want out? I don't think so. Although the only one confirming it is Scoop. Ken Rosenthal or Jon Heyman really haven't touched this probably because there is not much credibility to it yet.

 

 

With Jose Fernandez showing no inclination to sign a long-term contract, the Marlins likely will need to consider trading him at some point instead of risk losing him for nothing after 2018. The question is how soon they do that.

 

Sirius XM radio host Craig Mish, who has broken several Marlins stories over the years, reported via Twitter (and elaborated by phone) on Tuesday that the Marlins are exploring a trade for Fernandez and there’s a “very high probability” he will be dealt this winter.

 

The Marlins’ response?

 

“We do not comment on trade rumors,” team president David Samson texted this afternoon. “Some players are more likely to be traded than others. Jose fits in the latter category… He is a Marlin for at least the next three years and hopefully longer and we look forward to the start of the 2016 season.”

 

A different Marlins source said that a Fernandez trade would not make sense for them because they have a three-year window with him and the team needs high-end pitching.

 

Another Marlins source also called such a deal unlikely this winter but did not rule it out. Keep in mind the Marlins were adamant when Giancarlo Stanton rumors surfaced in past years, with executive Michael Hill saying: “We never shopped him. We want the player to be a Marlin.”

 

Fernandez, a free agent after 2018, will be reasonably priced for one more season; he stands to make a few million this winter as a first-time arbitration eligible player.

 

Agent Scott Boras, who has squabbled with Marlins management, declined to say Tuesday if Fernandez wants to be traded. Fernandez appeared visibly irritated by the Marlins’ trading of veterans in July.

 

“The Marlins know Jose Fernandez wants out of Miami ASAP,” WINZ-940 host Andy Slater reported, citing player sources. “One player told me that Jose Fernandez speaks to Marlins management like they’re children.”

 

Boras not only was angry about the Marlins’ decision to leave Marcell Ozuna in the minors for nearly six weeks this past summer (thus delaying his arbitration), but also because owner Jeffrey Loria didn’t respond to his requests to discuss it.

 

When Boras criticized the Marlins last week, Samson said: “Our baseball people do what is in the best interests of the team and the player. My strong suggestion to Mr. Boras is that instead of resting on his five percent that he collects from his stable of players, he write a check and buy a team. Because then he would have the opportunity to run a team that he claims to be so able to do.”

 

The Marlins remain cautious with Fernandez, who went 6-1 after returning last July from Tommy Johnsurgery to push his career record to 22-9.

 

Hill said the preference with Fernandez is not to place him on a pre-determined innings limit for 2016, but to adjust his workload in-season depending on circumstances, such as high-stress innings.

 

“[boras] will in no way be included in [that] process other than continuing to collect whatever commissions he may be entitled to,” Samson said last week. 

 

Regarding the trade story, Samson said today that Fernandez's "choice of representation is not relevant to this inquiry."
