December 19, 200322 yr USAToday.com's transaction page reports that the Marlins have re-signed C Ramon Castro, P Michael Tejera and OF Brian Banks to one-year contracts. No big surprises, but good to know they're back. Were they arby-eligible or what?
December 19, 200322 yr Author Were they arby-eligible or what? Yea. Do you know the price tags? Nope. Sorry. Maybe the Marlins MLB site will have it....
December 19, 200322 yr Would have liked to see Tejera let go. You never know what you'll get with him.
December 19, 200322 yr Would have liked to see Tejera let go. You never know what you'll get with him. If we released him, who has an upside bigger at that price?
December 19, 200322 yr Would have liked to see Tejera let go. You never know what you'll get with him. remember when he was pitching shutouts everynight two years ago and alot of people thought he was the next zito
December 19, 200322 yr Who says he has an upside potential. 27 yr old that is hot and cold. Lefties hit .392 against him last year....yeah that worked out well. I hope we didn't pay too much.
December 19, 200322 yr I hope we didn't pay too much. Probably around $400-500,000 for all three. Impossible. The league minimum is $300K. Unless you meant $400K apiece. Anything more than the $300K we spent on him last year is too much IMO.
December 19, 200322 yr Tejera sucks ... Inconsistent as they come.. Tejera came through in some big games down the stretch, remember The Looper Choke against The Braves that he came in and saved Loop's butt?
December 19, 200322 yr remember The Looper Choke against The Braves that he came in and saved Loop's butt? I believe it was Nate Bump and Mike Mordecai who saved us in that game. Impossible. The league minimum is $300K. Unless you meant $400K apiece. Anything more than the $300K we spent on him last year is too much IMO. I obviously meant a piece.
December 19, 200322 yr I believe it was Nate Bump and Mike Mordecai who saved us in that game. Were they really? Check a few pages down too in this thread http://www.marlinbaseball.com/forums/index...pic=7515&st=400
December 19, 200322 yr I can't really remember any other beside the one you mention and one start he had that he was solid.The guy was very iconsistent.
December 19, 200322 yr Tejera did struggle at times, but he has come through alot as well. Its not like hes pitching batting practice out there (SEE: Armando Almanza).
December 20, 200322 yr It's moments like this when my unfaultering trust in Admin Beinfest is tested. Miguel "Oh my God no, no (whine) he's.. he's not bringing HIM in, oh God no" Tejera? I just don't get it. I don't mind having one crappy pitcher in the bunch but can't we have a "new" crappy pitcher? Just a new face, I can't watch him anymore. I see Alfonseca to the Braves, interesting. We'll sure see enough of him next year.
December 20, 200322 yr I just checked floridamarlins.com they have nothing about the 3 signings yet, wonder how long It'll take them to get it up.
December 20, 200322 yr I just checked floridamarlins.com they have nothing about the 3 signings yet, wonder how long It'll take them to get it up. Its on USAToday and ESPN
December 20, 200322 yr We need to get rid of Tejerable and Almanza immediately. I think their statistics speak for themselves: W L ERA Almanza 4 5 6.08 Tejera 3 4 4.67 Even worse, Almanza's made $775,000 this year! :thumbdown

I obviously meant a piece.it was Tejera who came in and shut the Braves down
December 20, 200322 yr Add Mike Redmond to the list of 1 yr deals! But they're giving Tejera $450K...yikes that stinks.
December 20, 200322 yr i guess this means no javy ladies and gentlemen this leads me to believe with maybe one or two relievers and bench players added to the mix I PRESENT TO YOU YOUR 2004 FLORIDA MARLINS!
December 20, 200322 yr oh shut up all of you Tejera is a solid arm who can spot start if needed... $450k is a bargain, quit your bitchin
