July 22, 20169 yr Author Needs: SP, RP, PH RP is a "need"? Seems like a "want" to me. I'd say a lefty RP is the only one close to a need and that's debatable too.
July 22, 20169 yr RP is a "need"? Seems like a "want" to me. I'd say a lefty RP is the only one close to a need and that's debatable too. I meant lefty and I say its a need yes
July 22, 20169 yr I meant lefty and I say its a need yes I'll stick with 2 SP as a need. Everything else is gravy. Unless we can't get starters, then we load up on bullpen help.
July 22, 20169 yr I'll take one SP. If Dunn falters we have a couple lefty arms in the minors that could suffice. I can live with DD, Chris Johnson, Rojas, Ichiro, and Mathis on the bench. Of course I want more, but would be fine with one good SP. Sent from my iPhone using MarlinsBaseball.com mobile app
July 22, 20169 yr I'll stick with 2 SP as a need. Everything else is gravy. Unless we can't get starters, then we load up on bullpen help. Completely hypothetical, but would you prefer Cashner + Bucholz or Cashner + Cingrani
July 22, 20169 yr We should get 2 SP, a lefty reliever and a bench guy. ALL of it. What are we sending back? Blackmail I assume.

July 22, 20169 yr Author Id be satisfied with just a starter really You don't wanna win in the postseason?
July 22, 20169 yr Author We should get 2 SP, a lefty reliever and a bench guy. ALL of it. What are we sending back? Blackmail I assume. If we get all these my god we'll be good. It's probably wishful thinking to get 100% of what we want though.
July 22, 20169 yr Completely hypothetical, but would you prefer Cashner + Bucholz or Cashner + Cingrani Is Cashner even that good? His numbers look horrible.
July 22, 20169 yr If we can only get 1 thing, get a SP. If we can only get 2 things, get 2 SP (if possible).
July 22, 20169 yr So glad we got Rodney when we did with the Nats, Mets and others looking for relievers now.
July 22, 20169 yr Is Cashner even that good? His numbers look horrible. His numbers do look terrible, but as long as his Velo doesn't drop too low I think he can have some success
July 22, 20169 yr i'll pass on Cashner or Hill - don't really see much improvement there for us (I think Hill is way too big of an injury risk). That said, I don't really see us really being able to do much at the deadline without crippling a farm system already bereft of talent. I'm in favor of going in as is unless a sweetheart of a deal falls into our lap like the Rodney deal did.

July 22, 20169 yr i just don't like Hill because he seems like a huge injury risk and with our limited resources to trade I'd pass on him.
July 22, 20169 yr So glad we got Rodney when we did with the Nats, Mets and others looking for relievers now. Rodney for Strasburg?
July 23, 20169 yr i just don't like Hill because he seems like a huge injury risk and with our limited resources to trade I'd pass on him. No doubt but Hills latest injury is because of a blister (at least they're saying that) which ain't no biggie
July 23, 20169 yr Ten days to the deadline and still have many big arms on the market,it would be very excited for the upcoming week.
July 23, 20169 yr Remember when 90% of us loathed the idea of signing Doug Fister over almost all the other FA arms (I include myself in this lot). Imagine now if we had acquired him instead of Chen.
