July 28, 20215 yr What are everyone’s thoughts on Jesus Aguilar’s future with the Marlins? Should we trade him in the next few days? Should we extend him beyond this season? Should we keep just because his name is Jesus? Edited July 28, 20215 yr by Erick
July 28, 20215 yr I think we should keep him. I'm not sold on Lewin... and he's hilarious. Team control for two more years right? Such a great dude... would love to have him and rojas as team leaders

Eh, he’s a tough one, cause he should be able to get at least a pretty good bullpen arm but the team needs his kind of personality around. He’s like Miggy in that he elevates the people around him.
July 28, 20215 yr Aguilar is a good player for us, but he is blocking Lewin Diaz who is 24 years old and should be playing everyday. We need to see if we have anything in him. I would trade Aguilar but Marlins seem reluctant.
July 28, 20215 yr Winning teams need to have players like Miggy and Jesus. Now we just need to surround them with legitimate players

He’s like Miggy in that he elevates the people around him. Keeping someone who takes up a roster space because they make people laugh isn't the best of decisions. I love Aguilar as well and he's a decent bat. If some team really wanted to overpay though. Cya. Fish have pretty much said he ain't moving though anyway.

Oh no, I don’t mean that way thought that doesn’t hurt lol I mean that they rile the guys up and keep people motivated. When you’re playing 162 games a season with bumps and bruises and haven’t seen your family in months, that really makes a difference.
July 28, 20215 yr I honestly feel like either option is fine. I like him a lot and would love him to stay but if they thought they could get a good return he's not untouchable at all.

But in my mind there’s no reason to get rid of him just to get rid of him. I understand trading matte because he’s a FA after the season but at some point we have to start keeping some guys around that’s be pieces to compete. 13 minutes ago, marlinsmaniac said: That’s another thing that really keeps me from wanting to pull the trigger.

I don’t expect it to be announced anytime soon either with CBA negotiations sure to be a cluster.
July 28, 20215 yr Only if we can get a decent return. I wouldn't just trade him for the sake of it. His personality alone is great for club houze chemistry. He's also a productive hitter and would make a good DH next year.
July 28, 20215 yr Keep him. A bird in the hand.... And you don't know what you're going to get with Lewin.
July 28, 20215 yr No but honestly, good teams keep players like him around. You don’t win 100 games by having a good starting lineup, half of those guys will inevitably spend time on the IL. You win 100 games by having good depth to step in and play when that inevitably happens
July 29, 20215 yr Brinson makes us laugh when we try to watch him play, is that a good reason to keep him?

July 30, 20215 yr With the DH likely coming in 2022, there is a place for him in the lineup even with Lewin at 1B. Glad he is staying!
