Well to be fair he probably does seek that, he just may miss.

Mike Hill is gonna be one of the top GMs in all of baseball by 2010. 

 

 

I'm salivating at the thought of what we'd get in return for those two

hello McFly who's got the time traveling backwards now?

So change the GM would be the next to do.

 

 

I think if the Marlins get someone's number 1 prospect for Yelich or JT it will start to change people's opinions of Jeter so far. Or at least people in baseball and fans with actual knowledge. The casual fans will still be idiots but as Ken Rosenthal said yesterday, getting a maxed out return here would show Jeter is serious about building a winner and not just about cutting payroll. 

 

 

Proves it,Mike Hill.

"According to an August version of Project Wolverine - a document pitching potential investors on joining the Marlins ownership group and shared with the Miami Herald by sources - Jeter will make an annual bonus based on the Marlins being profitable.

 

That bonus would pay him $2 million in 2018, $1.7 million in 2019, $1.1 million in 2020, $2 million in 2021 and $2 million in 2022. The Marlins declined to say if the amount of those bonus payments were altered in subsequent versions of Wolverine.

 

Despite their financial problems, it is very likely the Marlins will turn a profit in 2018. The Stanton, Ozuna, and Gordon trades have cleared about $45 million off the team's payroll for the upcoming season, putting them around $95 million for the year. Also, all 30 teams will receive a $50 million payout as part of MLB's sale of BAMTech, the league's digital arm, to Disney. The cost cutting combined with the $50 million payout will likely put the Marlins in the black in 2018.

 

As things stand, Jeter invested $25 million in the Marlins and will be paid $5 million per year from 2018-22, meaning he will make his money back in short order. Add in the bonuses and Jeter will personally turn a profit on this venture fairly quickly. It is entirely possible the Marlins will pay Jeter $7 million this coming season ($5 million plus $2 million bonus) which, coincidentally enough, equals Yelich's salary for 2018. 

 

Hey, being an MLB owner is good work if you can get it. The system is set up to more or less guarantee you're going to make money. In this case, the more salary the Marlins unload, the more Jeter will be paid. The optics are pretty bad, if nothing else. Jeter is not the general manager, but he could push for a Yelich (and Prado and Brad Ziegler, etc.) trade to ensure those profitability bonuses kick in."

 

That's really sad and ugly…

 

 

Which part?

 

Slash payroll to make the profits and the BONUS.

 

 

Which one would you rather to pay 7 million dollars one year,Yelich or Jeter !?
