August 15, 201610 yr And with rodney signed for only 2 mil they just may do that Have you seen Rodney's ERA as a marlin? Did you see his era last year? It's pretty likely this is more who he is than the Padres 25 innings
August 15, 201610 yr Have you seen Rodney's ERA as a marlin? Did you see his era last year? It's pretty likely this is more who he is than the Padres 25 innings He's still only two million so I doubt they'll decline that option
August 15, 201610 yr Also, what do you guys think Rodney's talent level is? Even if we agree that the Marlins are dumb for thinking the .3 ERA would be sustainable, is Rodney still not a K per inning/sub 3 ERA guy moving forward? Those guys have value. If they wish to trade Rodney next year, I'd imagine he'll have trade value again. Of course, you never know with bullpens because they're rather unpredictable, but I don't see a reason for a drastic decline. Pretty good chance he will not be the sub 3 era guy.
August 15, 201610 yr They do have a tendency to buy high and sell low. It's why they haven't made the playoffs in years. I just think that Rodney is not this bad, and I'm hoping that he won't be any worse moving forward. He's still getting swings and misses and getting K's with us like he did with SD so maybe it's just the regression that was supposed to happen has already happened for the most part. I'm expecting a 4.00 ERA or worse from him next season.
August 15, 201610 yr He's still only two million so I doubt they'll decline that option How much is Capps making next season?
August 15, 201610 yr What is he then? What he's been for the marlins and what he was for the mariners. I also think Don is way overusing him. Old man needs some rest
August 15, 201610 yr How much is Capps making next season? Probably get a million like he did this year
August 15, 201610 yr The big question is what does the cashner trade look like if no cash considerations were included
August 15, 201610 yr What he's been for the marlins and what he was for the mariners. I also think Don is way overusing him. Old man needs some rest Why is his success considered a small sample but his failures considered not a small sample? That seems unfair.
August 15, 201610 yr What he's been for the marlins and what he was for the mariners. I also think Don is way overusing him. Old man needs some rest I do agree that Mattingly has overused him by the way.
August 15, 201610 yr Why is his success considered a small sample but his failures considered not a small sample? That seems unfair. I mean his career era is 3.62.
August 15, 201610 yr I mean his career era is 3.62. He's been much better since 2012 with the exception of what he did for the Mariners last year.
August 15, 201610 yr And his current peripherals seem fine too. Doesn't seem like a guy who has no business in the big leagues, which many people seem to think is the case.
August 15, 201610 yr Author MIke Hill is a shitty GM. I think we can all agree on that. Wait is it possible for us all to agree? I think he sucks but I don't think he's shitty, so now we don't all agree. Happy now?
August 15, 201610 yr I think he sucks but I don't think he's shitty, so now we don't all agree. Happy now? I think he's shitty but don't think he sucks.
August 15, 201610 yr Why is his success considered a small sample but his failures considered not a small sample? That seems unfair. Because it's not as fun for the Paddock fan boys
August 15, 201610 yr Because it's not as fun for the Paddock fan boys Gonna sell a boatload of these [ATTACH]1109._xfImport[/ATTACH]
August 15, 201610 yr I mean, isn't it just Polly and I? We were the only two who railed on the Rodney trade from the second it happened.
