Das Texan Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 They coulda traded naylor for hellickson and traded for Cashner instead. Mike hill baby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammerhead Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 They coulda traded naylor for hellickson and traded for Cashner instead. Mike hill baby Pretty much my thought. Naylor is 19 headed for AA possibly this year. Could've had Helickson, went Cashner. Gotta love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 i think the only real fuck you here belongs to mike hill. this trade actually looks even worse now. Only Mike Hill. Of course it looks worse. But there were some idiots here who were defending that trade on the grounds that there was no way in hell that the Marlins could have gotten Hellickson. The premise was basically that the Phillies asking price was too high and that was apparently not true at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taiwanmarlin Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 "A complete voiding of the initial trade, as the Marlins understood it, would have been complicated by the fact that Cashner already had pitched for them, allowing one earned run in six innings in a 5-4 victory over the Cardinals on July 31." What "COMPLICATED" would prevented them to complete voiding that terrible trade !? as COMPLICATED as Hill's BRAIN !? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 yeah they should've been able to negate that entire trade, Marlins should've been going nuts. This wasn't a 1 for 1 deal, you don't make that trade without all the pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CYmarlins Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 This is just another reason why Mike Hill has no business near any front office. I know [uSER=5078]@pollyvonwog[/uSER] will remember this one. Chicago reportedly asked the Astros for a package including young right-hander Joe Musgrove and top prospects Francis Martes and Kyle Tucker when the two sides last engaged in serious Quintana talks, and that package was deemed too steep by Houston. Musgrove, after all, made his big league debut at age 23 last year and threw 62 solid innings with a 4.06 ERA, 8.0 K/9, 2.3 BB/9 and a 43.4 percent ground-ball rate. He’d be controllable for at least another six seasons and possibly seven, depending on how much service time he accumulates in 2017. Martes and Tucker, meanwhile, are considered two of Houston’s best prospects and both ranked within the game’s top 35 prospect in MLB.com’s recent rankings. (Both were within the top 60 on this week’s top 100 rankings from ESPN’s Keith Law, as well.) Remember Franics Martes? They guy we kind of just threw in the trade for Jared Cosart a couple years ago? Now he is a Top 35 prospect and has been doing quite well in the Houston system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 Apparently they thought the commissioners office wanted them to work out a separate new trade instead of nixing the entire first trade and they thought nixing the entire first trade was complicated by Cashner already pitching a game even though Rea also pitched a game for us. I don't get this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverBullet Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 Qustion, kind of off subject, but any chance we could get Park for nothing? Parking at the ballpark garages is usually about $15. You can park for less on someone's lawn in the nearby community. I doubt you can park for nothing unless you do something like park at a nearby business and walk to the ballpark. I tend to just pay up for the parking garages for the convenience of it. Hope this helps, let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I would move the team back into Dolphins Stadium and use Marlins Park for monster truck rallies if it meant getting rid of Mike Hill forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out when Colin Rea blew out his elbow the Marlins wanted to take back the entire trade and their plan was to trade Naylor to the Phillies for Hellickson which the Phillies had already agreed upon!

The Marlins couldn't get the entire trade vetoed so they agreed upon Rea returned for Castillo and the Phillies backed off on trading Hellickson to anyone. Also explains why Castillo got traded for Straily. Seems like they were always intent on using Castillo as bait for a controllable starter. My impression is that Hill could not find the way to send Cashner back to San Diego after he had pitched well in his first start and the League preferred to mediate than to cancel the Trade but the option was available to cancel the trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
