December 31, 20187 yr He needs to be good first - then, and only then, will the timing be right for a devastating injury. Nah he'd be traded first because he'd become too expensive. C'mon, hovey, you've been around long enough to know this.
January 2, 20197 yr I really think that dumping guys last offseason for peanuts has given the Marlins no real bargaining power when shopping Realmuto this offseason. It certainly feels that way, since they keep asking for a ton for him (as they should), and have had no takers.
January 2, 20197 yr I really think that dumping guys last offseason for peanuts I really don't think we're trade those guys for peanuts…
January 2, 20197 yr Nah he'd be traded first because he'd become too expensive. C'mon, hovey, you've been around long enough to know this. but Grasshopper - he'd still need to be good before being traded.
January 2, 20197 yr No longer our affiliate, it is the Clinton LumberKings now. Maybe that's just the nickname of @Michael…

The "returns" the Marlins received last year from dumping their all star outfield have guaranteed the lowballing on JT, which I don't think will ever let up. Eventually, the Marlins will give in.
January 2, 20197 yr She became Mrs. Independent She married someone with her same last name? That's weird.
January 2, 20197 yr Kind of hoping the Dodgers miss out on both Manny and Bryce and they feel the need to make a move and splash trade and trade for JT. If they trade away Puig, Wood, Kemp and don't land either of Bryce, JT or Machado, seems like a step-back to me. Or maybe they sign Bryce, and then and only then, do they pull the trigger on sending us Verdugo and some other pieces for JT. Verdugo could certainly make the Yelich departure sting less. Think them resigning Manny is worst case for us and it would be Astros or bust at that point. Surprised Boston never threw their hats in the ring, even if they are coming off a WS win.
January 3, 20197 yr She married someone with her same last name? That's weird. Is it illegal in the America ?
January 3, 20197 yr There is no law requiring a name change. He was asking about marrying someone with the same last name being illegal. I'm sure there's less variety of last names over in Taiwan.
January 3, 20197 yr He was asking about marrying someone with the same last name being illegal. I'm sure there's less variety of last names over in Taiwan. Oh I should probably learn to read.
January 3, 20197 yr Oh I should probably learn to read. You are the Son of Jack, not Jack. But Jack left before you were born. So you don't know Jack.
January 3, 20197 yr You are the Son of Jack, not Jack. But Jack left before you were born. So you don't know Jack. What ?
January 3, 20197 yr He was asking about marrying someone with the same last name being illegal. I'm sure there's less variety of last names over in Taiwan. Yea, you always know what I mean…and it's really there's less variety of last names in Taiwan.
January 3, 20197 yr I know I'm in the minority but I keep feeling that if they're still holding their ground they still have leverage. If teams weren't still calling they would have lowered their demands by now.
January 3, 20197 yr I know I'm in the minority but I keep feeling that if they're still holding their ground they still have leverage. If teams weren't still calling they would have lowered their demands by now. I think you're right. They probably know a package they will take from multiple teams, but are holding out for someone to panic (i.e., if Philly signs Machado or Bryce) knowing they can always fallback onto it because it's not like JT isn't desirable. This isn't Castro we're talking about who is good, but has limited appeal. Once Manny, Bryce, Grandal, Pollock, Keuchel, etc. sign, Realmuto will be the best person available, and Robinson Chirinos, Mike Zunino, and Brian McCann aren't preventing a JT deal from going down
January 3, 20197 yr The logo looks good on the blue background there. Good to see some media outlets putting it on something other than black.
January 3, 20197 yr You are the Son of Jack, not Jack. But Jack left before you were born. So you don't know Jack. Is his name Sue?
