#Most or all of 2003 salary paid by another club

Sorry if it doesn't look that great, I did my best to make it readable but I was doing so in the New Topic box so it might look awkward to some.

it looks fabulous..... almost exactly like mine

Juan Pierre's salary is 200K too high, but other than that it looks solid to me.

Juan Pierre is worth all the money that we pay him...

I'm glad we got rid of preston and got pierre even though preston is doing very good-bc hes in coors

but jp always sets the table and steals bases...and whenever he gets on he gets the pitcher worried about him...so even when jp dosent do anything-he is still making a big effect...and even though he dosent have a big arm...he makes up for it with his speed to track down those fly balls...great offense and defense...great player...glad to have him and worth all the money

who is arguing with you?

Juan Pierre's salary is 200K too high, but other than that it looks solid to me.

I think the $200,000 bonus for finishing in the top 10 in the MVP voting actually is added to Pierre's 2004 base salary, which is why it's now $2.5 million.

who is arguing with you?

noone(atleast yet)

and noone has to be...im just expounding on a point

if this is more readable...

With one roster spot still open, the Marlins' projected opening day roster will make more than $39.4 million combined in 2004. With $11 million in deferred income due pitcher Mike Hampton and catcher Ivan Rodriguez, that leaves the Marlins payroll at about $50 million. Last year's opening day payroll was $50.35 million, including the $2.5 million paid pitcher A.J. Burnett, who was placed on the disabled list.

#Most or all of 2003 salary paid by another club

lol its kinda funny that redmond took a pay cut and the club gave that money for ramons raise lol

If our payroll is the same this year as it was last year, I'm going to be pretty pissed.

i second that. they made the maximum amount of money they could have possibly made last season. if we stay at $51 million, we'll also be getting more revenue sharing money than last season.

 

i'll be pissed unless they up the payroll to $60 million. an "operating range" of $50-$55 million is just ridiculous.

Exactly.

 

We recieved post-season bonus', revenue, clothing sales ect. from last season, and they're gonna sit here and tell us that our operating range is the same as it was LAST off-season? Give me a freakin' break here.

 

If we don't get a few more decent major leaguers this off-season, I will be very disappointed in Jeffrey, dispite all the good things he has brought to this organization.

so what do we do with the 10 mil we still have left???????

 

go after Jay Payton????? hahaha

 

or get us Jason Johnson?????

 

i dunno what we do and i dont really care

Vlad is what we do, though all of these frontloaded contracts for the O's are starting to raise a red flag.

Vlad is the next Marlin

Vlad is the next Marlin

no hes not...

 

Vlad=Baltimore

I wouldnt mind having either Vlad or Rafy as the next Marlins... BTW : Vlad will not be an Oriole not since they signed Javy, they need to use that $15 mill that have on 1 or 2 pitchers if they wanna " compete " or they can get Vlad if they want to be the next Rangers.

how many pitchers can they get that cost $15 million? who would trade this magical pitcher to them?

 

they're getting vlad.

they're getting vlad. They can get Ponson, Urbina and get Maddux? Why go after Vlad, when they in the hardest division in baseball... They need some pitchers to help them, again unless they want to be the next Rangers.

They were stacked with only hitting about 3 years ago and nothing still happened

i agree that they definitely need pitching, but i'm convinced that they'll sign vlad and find a way to upgrade pitching, too.

The marlins have tried their best to convince everyone that their not after vlad, guess they didnt try hard enough..

It was pretty obvious that we wanted him...
