Skip said he doesn't believe in a traditional closer role, so expect whoever the right matchup guy is that day to pitch the 9th.

good, this is the best way to handle a bullpen.

Let the bullpen work itself out.

Whoever is closing games in April may not be the best option in August.

Bullpens are the easiest things to fix but the most volatile year over year.

If we had one guy that became dominant and was always getting it done regardless of matchups, give it to him.  Otherwise, work with matchups until proven otherwise, whether through success or failure of particular guys.

throwbacks?!

There’s literally no reason for them not to be consistently rotating a throwback teal set into their uniform mix! The fans are begging for the teal and it’s a big time seller.

If he's on the roster it pretty much guarantees a WS title, right?

Only on years ending in "3" that he was away from the Marlins after previously being with but joined them again for that season ending in "3." *

 

He was on the Marlins in 1993, but that doesn't count because that was their first ever season.

 

He rejoined the Marlins in 2003 season after being away.

 

And now he is rejoining the Marlins for the 2023 season after being away = WS Title.

 

You heard it here first, folks.

 

 

*Yes I know he was here in 1997 when the Marlins won their first WS title. But that doesn't fit well in my hypothesis, so I'm glossing over that fact. 😂

Not that I don't believe in him but this whole Yuli event too much bizarre, so anything is possible before he signed with other team.

In fairness IDK if we can call anything "bizarre" in comparison with Correa's offseason. Lol

Astros sign Yuli and failed physical, Twins sign Yuli and failed physical, Marlins sign Yuli and PASSED physical …

Why are you so dead-set on Yuli?
