CyggyMarlin 241 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 The fact Billy Beane signed him says it all. The organization they want to operate like, signed him for more money than what he would have gotten in arbitration from the Marlins. I think we all know how this is going to end.

SilverBullet 2,273 Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 Your 2016 AL Cy Young winner? Yes but only because Kike Hernandez isn't in the AL. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jokersgoon 46 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 IDK why TK is a lock. Love salad but Conley,Chen and Jose should be the only ones. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SilverBullet 2,273 Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 IDK why TK is a lock. Love salad but Conley,Chen and Jose should be the only ones. Because TK is who he is and minor league time won't make him any better. Conley as well as Cosart if needed can still benefit from minor league games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CYmarlins 25 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 If they wanna play they will have to take it. I don't see any of those guys really getting a major league deal outside of Lincecum and that's if he does well in his workouts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't see any of those guys really getting a major league deal outside of Lincecum and that's if he does well in his workouts. Jon Heyman of MLB Network reported 20 teams have contacted Lincecum about a potential deal. Well,that's maybe why a BIG LEAGUE DEAL was much possible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SilverBullet 2,273 Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 Yeah I gotta believe the Fish can still get at least one of those leftover guys on a minors deal soon. It might not be in the next day or two but a few of those guys will bite the bullet over not playing anywhere at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
taiwanmarlin 363 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Jon Heyman:Word from folks who've managed to sneak a peek lincecum looks very good. Expectation is showcase will be close to march 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
taiwanmarlin 363 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 It's a contradiction, we want a good Lincecum,but a really good Lincecum would out of our price range. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well at least that doesn't count us out because I'm pretty sure we could/would give him that assurance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SongInTheAir 395 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Well at least that doesn't count us out because I'm pretty sure we could/would give him that assurance. I'm pretty sure we gave that assurance to Edwin Fucking Jackson. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CYmarlins 25 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I'm pretty sure we gave that assurance to Edwin Fucking Jackson. ### Marlins pitcher Edwin Jackson, who thrived in relief for the Cubs and Braves last season after struggling mightily as a Cubs starter, said he still looks “at myself as a starter” and is determined to win one of two open rotation spots Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SilverBullet 2,273 Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 You guys are probably joking but Edwin Jackson was not guaranteed a starting spot. He's guaranteed a roster spot and will be strongly considered for a rotation spot but there's no guarantees there. I have to believe Lincecum could be guaranteed a starting spot though. It would only be four guys guaranteed in that case and then Cosart, Jackson, Phelps, Conley, and Nicolino would be competing for the final spot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 We didn't give Edwin any assurances. Three rotation spots are in - Jose, Chen, Salad. The other two are up for grabs with Conley, Nicolino, Cosart, Jackson and Urena in the mix. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He should change his last name to Solano. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
