Marlins Acquire Fernando Rodney

Featured Replies

Not excited that I get to look at his stupid hat wearing ways or the fact we gave up someone that looked like they might be a nice surprise but this deal really wouldn't hurt as much if we weren't so short in prospects. 

 

But all said if you want good players you got to give up good stuff.

 

 

Two closers on the same team,just hope don't  happen something like Storen with Papolbon stuff.

 

wait until we have 3 when Capps comes back

 

 

Yeah but Jose isn't going anywhere.

 

Once we add a starter, our #5 won't be Nicolino/Cosart/Clemens anymore.

 

Jose's #'s will remain throughout the season unless he gets injured, in which case we're fucked and this is all a moot point.

 

You are missing the point. I'm saying that even if the Marlins replace Nicolino/Cosart/Clemens, their 2-4 starters are still pretty lousy. That's basically a 4.45 ERA on the mound for 3/5ths of the games played. And I'm not even sure how good of a starter the Marlins will acquire to nudge out Nicolino/Cosart.

 

 

fi dont get why you guys give a shit about his hat. I actually love Rodney as a player all around

 

that's not the way to wear it, simple as that, he want to looks ganta shit he can wear his underwear over his hear for all I care but do it out off the field

he can wear it however he wants. 

 

 

Well shit now I feel bad for not clicking it

 

Have to give value to get value. We weren't going to get anyone for the bullpen by giving up a clown like Avery Romero or something. Paddack is a Single A pitcher with ~50 innings of professional experience. He MIGHT become something or he might never make a major league pitch. We traded a question mark who could one day become an exclamation point for an arrow. It's a good deal for the Marlins, also a good deal for the Padres.

Perfectly said and what I was trying to say for hours but I went into rage/troll mode instead.

 

 

Is there even a single person in this thread saying that Paddack should not be traded at all this season? I feel like I am seeing a lot of straw man posts.

 

EXACTLY. The trade itself is fine in a vacuum. It's the context that is the problem

I guess we were supposed to just brainwash the Padres. They asked for Paddack in exchange for Rodney. Fish believed Rodney was a necessary addition. You have to pay the price. If Best Buy wants 999 for a TV, you can't just offer them 600 for it and get it. Its 999.

Maybe the Marlins went to Best Buy and spent all of their money on a flat screen TV despite their refrigerator being busted?

AGAIN THEY CAN STILL MAKE TRADES, PADDACK WASN'T THEIR ONLY PLAYER THEY CAN TRADE AND THE TRADE DEADLINE HAS NOT PASSED

he literally was their only player. See the Doyers bud norris trade.
