Posted December 28, 20167 yr New guy here!! Just curious if anyone would be interested in acquiring Henderson Alvarez... Pitched his best here.
December 28, 20167 yr Author From what I can find.. he pitched some last year. Had another shoulder surgery. But hopes to pitch this year.
December 28, 20167 yr Yes. Please get him. He's going to save the team. The Marlins would have made the playoffs in 2016 if they traded for Ricky Nolasco like I wanted them to.

December 28, 20167 yr There is no way the Marlins spend a dime for pitchers who might not pitch. We even demanded the poor Padres take Rea back after we broke him. I would honesty like both Hendo and Eovaldi back but none of them would take a minor league contract and Eovaldi is out with TJ anyhow.
December 28, 20167 yr We even demanded the poor Padres take Rea back after we broke him He came over with a pre-existing injury, that is why the Padres took him back
December 29, 20167 yr It's near 90% chance to recover the Tommy John surgery. Some pitcher got more speed after that. But Recovering a Shoulder injury is very difficult. It's the rare case to recover and pitch well, just small chance to below 10%. Not even close to a lottery pick. I don't know he still can throw high fast 2-seamer, I just feel his baseball career was almost done.
December 29, 20167 yr He came over with a pre-existing injury, that is why the Padres took him back I know. But why did they though ? Out of respect ? I noticed the Red Sox mentioned they might demand compensation for Pomeranz injury on what I assume are the same grounds ( think they dropped it though).
December 29, 20167 yr I know. But why did they though ? Out of respect ? I noticed the Red Sox mentioned they might demand compensation for Pomeranz injury on what I assume are the same grounds ( think they dropped it though). No, I believe they got compensation for the Pomeranz injury. We dropped OUR case because we got Castillo back.
December 30, 20167 yr No, I believe they got compensation for the Pomeranz injury. We dropped OUR case because we got Castillo back. Did we pick it back up?
December 30, 20167 yr Did we pick it back up? We better have. When is Castillo - our super prospect - going to emerge to the bigs ? Next season ?
December 31, 20167 yr We better have. When is Castillo - our super prospect - going to emerge to the bigs ? Next season ? Possibly next season. He got up to AA this past season. At the latest, 2018, barring injury.
January 3, 20177 yr We better have. When is Castillo - our super prospect - going to emerge to the bigs ? Next season ? super prospect????
March 13, 20177 yr Author Henderson to throw a bullpen session soon... any chance we sign him to a minor league contract atleast.
March 13, 20177 yr Henderson to throw a bullpen session soon... any chance we sign him to a minor league contract atleast. Slim to no chance since that would cost money.
