August 21, 20168 yr Cleared waivers but still have to trade talent to get them and we don't have much in system. Same issue as prior to trade deadline
August 21, 20168 yr Cleared waivers but still have to trade talent to get them and we don't have much in system. Same issue as prior to trade deadline Justin Twine should suffice!
August 21, 20168 yr I'd rather just add Bour and Conley if they can ever get healthy than trade anything for most of those names. An actual OF to replace Andino and split time with Ichiro would be nice though.

August 21, 20168 yr And it would seem to make more sense to take a flyer on Carlos Gomez at the minimum than trade for a guy like Frenchy. Maybe, although I think there was probably more than on field concerns about Gomez too.

August 21, 20168 yr Two scouts on Gomez from the Dallas Morning News article on his signing: "One said Gomez probably will hit for power but will offset that by "messing up at least one thing per game." The other said Gomez's play, particularly his decreased speed, raised the question of whether he is having hip problems. A hip condition scuttled a trade to the New York Mets last season."
August 21, 20168 yr Author I can't wait to see what David Samson evolves into. I know Samson dislike Pokemon from former article and I don't like it,too.
August 21, 20168 yr Unfortunately Marlins can not take any washed-up pitcher since they don't have a decent pitching coach that can fix the issues #IblameJuanNieves
August 21, 20168 yr Author Unfortunately Marlins can not take any washed-up pitcher since they don't have a decent pitching coach that can fix the issues #IblameJuanNieves But we have traded two players for Jim Benedict.
August 21, 20168 yr But we have traded two players for Jim Benedict. true, another farm unload for nothing
August 21, 20168 yr Some pitchers have gotten better this year. And Benedict's efforts will be a long term thing. Lets revisit this in 3 or 4 years and see if he changed anything.
August 21, 20168 yr Benedict is overrated around here. I mean it's all from Pittsburgh really right? I don't know of anything in particular he's done here, those stories don't seem to get told until the offseason for some reason.
