February 13, 20188 yr Jeter and Denbo have brought over the Yankees' Captains Camp, a 3 and a half week seminar for 25 selected prospects to start being taught the way this organization eventually wants things done. http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/miami-marlins/fl-sp-marlins-captains-camp-20180212-story.html
February 13, 20188 yr I like that a lot. Is that the wrong link though because im not seeing anything about the captains camp in there.
February 13, 20188 yr Author I like that a lot. Is that the wrong link though because im not seeing anything about the captains camp in there. Thanks. Fixing it now.
February 14, 20188 yr I love this and it should be seen by more eyes. Strange how Barry Jackson, ESPN and the likes aren't pumping this story quite as hard as the sea creature and Billy the Marlin ones.
February 14, 20188 yr Author I love this and it should be seen by more eyes. Strange how Barry Jackson, ESPN and the likes aren't pumping this story quite as hard as the sea creature and Billy the Marlin ones. Don't forget Joel Sherman. It's called biased journalism. Selective reporting. Sticking to their personal agenda. Only reporting what fits their narrative. Drinking the haterade.
February 14, 20188 yr I love this and it should be seen by more eyes. Strange how Barry Jackson, ESPN and the likes aren't pumping this story quite as hard as the sea creature and Billy the Marlin ones. Only local media individuals who actually provide both sides are: manso, Mish, frisaro, healey, and Spencer.
February 14, 20188 yr Author Only local media individuals who actually provide both sides are: manso, Mish, frisaro, healey, and Spencer. Maybe Heyman? He's not necessarily local only but he's based in Miami and reports on the Marlins a lot and gives both sides of the story pretty much always and has said both positives and negatives and has given Jeter praise and the benefit of the doubt when appropriate.
February 14, 20188 yr Only local media individuals who actually provide both sides are: manso, Mish, frisaro, healey, and Spencer. Mish gets a lot of crap on the boards but he has been pretty accurate lately. Frisaro is alway late to the party so no love for that douche bag. Spencer is cool tho.
February 14, 20188 yr Author Mish gets a lot of crap on the boards but he has been pretty accurate lately. Frisaro is alway late to the party so no love for that douche bag. Spencer is cool tho. Mish has proven himself more and more reliable. The thing that got him some heat on here was, if I remember correctly, when he was the only guy who ever reported Jose Fernandez being some kind of clubhouse problem and the Marlins wanting to trade him because of that. Looking back it was just Jose being the kid he was but not much more than that.

February 16, 20188 yr That was a cool video. IT's great to see an actual plan and an organization that is finally trying to develop an organizational culture.
February 16, 20188 yr They had a Yankees look to them in those outfits from the back. I thought the same thing. I think for sure Jeter is going to change the uniforms. And I think it's going to be very yankee-esque, as in no mascot or anything of that nature. Looking forward to it.
February 16, 20188 yr Author This is incredible! Listen to Denbo's words. And that's in a relatively private setting. Not out in public to the media. How can the media hear that and see that camp and insist this front office isn't trying to grow a championship team? "We're not trying to build a team that contends for a championship every 15 years, we're trying to build a team that contends EVERY YEAR" Bottom line: If Jeter and Sherman were here for profits THEY WOULDN'T EVEN DO THIS CAPTAINS CAMP! I know the question of trusting Jeter or not is pretty much about faith and opinion at this point BUT the organization is doing A LOT more to prove their good intentions than their bad intentions. This is Captain's Camp... go find me the video where Denbo is sitting in a room with the prospects and saying "Guys, just do whatever you want, it doensn't matter because we just wanna make money."
February 16, 20188 yr “Captain” is a Jeter/Yankee thing I don’t give a fvck about the Yankees. Great concept. Please change the name. 3.........2......1..........until Son Of Jack or Bald Eagle responds and tells me I’m an idiot.
February 16, 20188 yr Your list of people who disagree with you keeps growing with each reply. Better add me to it as well. Excellent. I’ve been throwing this new team name around in my head lately. Tell me what you think....... The Far South Miami Yankees. BAM.
February 16, 20188 yr Firs lol at the last line, someone is a snowflake... As for the rest, yeah the Yankees are a terrible organization to emulate. Who cares what it is called anyway? You sound as asinine as that writer who wants to rename his kid because a Billy actor was canned. OH NO I GOT CALLED A SNOWFLAKE. Gauntlet thrown down!
February 16, 20188 yr A certain someone keeps trashing every thread lately with nonsense, I don't understand his or her passion for doing it but whatever. This camp was a big hit with the players who attended it, and it is nothing but a positive for the franchise.

February 16, 20188 yr If you're only concern is the name of the camp then you're not an idiot. Absolutely.
