November 28, 20169 yr Won't happen we don't have the talent for that trade. I agree we just don't have the talent (and the thought of losing nicolino makes me sick. so young so much talent) for a player of Trout's caliber but with Mike Hill the GM Wizard at the helm anything is possible!
November 28, 20169 yr with Mike Hill the GM Wizard at the helm anything is possible! Thanks for the support
November 28, 20169 yr Thanks for the support Still amazed you were able to pull off an injured Colin Rea for Luis Castillo. Bravo maestro
November 28, 20169 yr Still amazed you were able to pull off an injured Colin Rea for Luis Castillo. Bravo maestro I amaze myself sometimes even, thank you again Mr. Wog
November 28, 20169 yr I amaze myself sometimes even, thank you again Mr. Wog Man,how long would you keep to play the role of " Mike Hill " !?
November 28, 20169 yr no way we get mike trout even if they throw in nicolino Maybe get him if we throw in Robert De Niro.
November 28, 20169 yr Man,how long would you keep to play the role of " Mike Hill " !? I began this role when I exited my mother's womb and I hope it does not end anytime soon. Thank you Mr. Marlin
November 28, 20169 yr Hey Mike. Am I educated enough to see what you're doing yet? How many credits at FSU do I need? NO WAY !!!
November 28, 20169 yr I began this role when I exited my mother's womb and I hope it does not end anytime soon. Thank you Mr. Marlin YOU WIN !!!
November 28, 20169 yr Before the trade deadline or next off-season. Unless they make a playoff push this season and/or next, Stanton will be gone before the start of 2018. Also he will waive his NTC in a heartbeat if he goes to LA.

November 28, 20169 yr Angels or Doyers? Highest bidder. Angels play in Anaheim The Dolphins don't play in Miami (Miami Gardens is just about as far from Miami as you can get while still being in Dade)
November 28, 20169 yr The Dolphins don't play in Miami (Miami Gardens is just about as far from Miami as you can get while still being in Dade) True but the Dolphins aren't named the Miami Dolphins of Miami Gardens. The Angels are named Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. While stealing the Los Angeles name they still make it fairly clear that they don't actually play in Los Angeles.
November 28, 20169 yr True but the Dolphins aren't named the Miami Dolphins of Miami Gardens. The Angels are named Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. While stealing the Los Angeles name they still make it fairly clear that they don't actually play in Los Angeles. I think as metropolitan areas get bigger and bigger (suburbs getting larger and spread out), more and more team names will go like Golden State Warriors. Maybe Orange County Angels. The Rays and Bucs chose Tampa Bay which is more ambiguous than Tampa. I remember when the Marlins changed their name to Miami, a lot of Broward and Palm Beach fans felt slighted. The cities names are all about marketing anyways. As for Stanton, I think he wants to be home. Whenever the Marlins go to LA (Dodgers) they run through his childhood there (e.g. going to games with his father), and it's too much of who he is. LA has his sentiments. His twitter made in 2010 (when he was with the Marlins) also references Los Angeles area code. When Nolasco went to the Dodgers ("home" for him as much as Anaheim would be to Stanton), Stanton was "pissed" (remember his twitter post). I think he just felt somewhat envious of Ricky and subliminally telling the Marlins to send him too. Either way, he only likes Miami because that is where his money comes and the NTC was not required so he stays with Marlins, but rather allows him to control his destination (while also getting his contract now).
November 28, 20169 yr no way we get mike trout even if they throw in nicolino Polly,don't you know that in the Mike Hill's education level, Nicolino was much better than Syndergaard.

The "pissed " twitter post wasn't a reaction to the Nolasco trade. The rest is just speculation on your part. You more than once said "I think..." and then just make guesses from there. I don't know what's in Stanton's mind as far as playing here vs playing in California but the assumption that he would love to play there is just too easy to make. It could be right but it could easily be wrong. The NTC also means nothing in this case. No one has ever said it's there because he wants to stay here.
November 29, 20169 yr Author Had a dream last night Stanton was traded, cant say it felt too good in the dream. I think it would be a mistake to trade him away
November 29, 20169 yr Had a dream last night Stanton was traded, cant say it felt too good in the dream. I think it would be a mistake to trade him away Would you tell us what we acquired for G in your dream ?
November 29, 20169 yr Would you tell us what we acquired for G in your dream ? Andrew Cashner, Colin Rea, and $2 million cash considerations.
November 29, 20169 yr Andrew Cashner, Colin Rea, and $2 million cash considerations. I think it's Capps,Paddack and Naylor.

That makes no freaking sense. He has said himself that the whole LA thing is over blown and that he loves Miami and South Beach in particular. If he didn't like it here he wouldn't have signed that contract. There were all kinds of rumors of him being shopped before he signed that contract. He knew he wasn't going to be here much longer if they didn't extend him. He could have easily forced the Marlins hand. Instead, he chose to sign a 10 year contract. Yes, he has an opt out clause, but that has more to do with Loria and his commitment to spending money and winning than going to LA.

The Stanton to Cali stuff is so overblown and fabricated it's not even funny.
