marlinsmaniac Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) Jesus Christ, I’m not sure how they haven’t been able to acquire someone like Johnathan Lucroy or Kevin Plawecki from the Red Sox. I love the Sox, (grew up watching with my grandpa) but they’re terrible this year and have no need for both of them with Vazquez. They’re better off with some cash to offset the luxury tax than a good backup catcher. Edited August 25, 2020 by marlinsmaniac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Das Texan Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Idiotic planning by the Marlins tbh. Once Cervelli went down they should have been making a move the NEXT DAY. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most teams aren’t willing to even give up their backup C right now because it’s a shortened season and a lot of teams are in the race. We currently have our backup catcher hurt, as well as the 3rd string catcher out. I’m sure the Cardinals would have an awesome 4th string catcher ready to step in.

Lavarnway was cut because the Marlins got back their starting catcher and Cervelli was fine and producing. What team wouldn't have dumped Lavarnway in that situation?

Photo-Realistic Billy Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Well, in this crazy season, we've seen being optioned doesn't mean you're optioned for good. Wouldn't be surprised to see him out of the bullpen in a week or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Fyi Chavez was added to the taxi squad because of the rule that a catcher must be on the taxi squad. I doubt the Marlins plan on using Chavez unless it's an emergency, same as they did with Navarreto. I'd assume Wallach is the next one brought in but adding him to the taxi squad doesn't make sense right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
