Spoiler alert. The Marlins are NOT one of the mystery teams emerging for Justin Verlander.

Got proof?

@Admin can we get a countdown clock on here until the trade deadline

Kin needs to push all her chips in. ALL IN

If today doesn’t end in a truly impactful bat headed our way - Gorman, Eloy, Donovan, hell even Alec Burleson, then it’s officially football season

Yeah when the team is literally tied for a playoff spot and 1 back of the top wild card, it is definitely a good time to quit on the year.

Does Twitter not let you see posts anymore?

 

Went onto Rosenthal's page and it didn't have anything since like 2022, but then I look in the google results, and he's clearly posted since.

Today isn't going to be a productive day for me at work.

lol on The Athletic, Rosenthal's report on the Marlins was "Robertson was likely their big move, they were in on Candelario and Cron before they were moved."

 

Lovely.

 

Kim, prove him wrong.

Cabrera being in our rotation now is full proof of our current starting pitching problem. We suddenly have almost no SP depth and so an underperforming guy like Cabrera gets to stick around. 

Eury Perez. They need to stop dicking around

And if they can't get a bat, then they need to double down on the pitching and get a starter and another closer, and just pray for 3+ runs per game. Lorenzen looks like a good pickup

Yeah, swap him and Cabrera.

Holmes and Torres for Cabrera, Watson, and another two top 3-10 prospects. Is that enough? That's a winning move. We get our setup man via another team's closer, and Segurass out of the lineup

It would really be a big damage to the fanbase if they end up with no significant improvement to the offense, the whole baseball world know this team needs to improve the offense to make it to the playoffs. It's the first time this regime be a real buyer, I don't believe they would do a “half ass effort ”.

Check what the Mets want for Alonso

I was just thinking about how hysterical it would be if the Marlins traded Garrett Cooper to the Mets for Pete Alonso. Just the look on the Mets fans faces seeing Alonso suit up in those city connect sugar kings uniforms. 😂

Are they considering moving Alonso? I've been reading they have no intention of trading him.

No idea. But he is a FA after next season so it seems like if they don't plan to re-sign him, this is their best time to trade him. Not sure if they plan to sign him long term or not. Obviously they don't care about dollar amounts, but still may not want to keep him.

I’m curious about that as well.

Do you have a Twitter account?

I don’t, so when I go to look at different twitter feeds from different people it is just showing random posts from the past few years.

I know they have made a lot of changes in the past few months since they got their new owner. A few weeks ago they had it where you couldn’t even view any tweets without having an account and signing in.

My best guess is that maybe they are just showing people’s more popular tweets from over the years just as a preview but if you want to see any recent tweets you must have an account and sign in. Kind of like a paywall or something. Either way, it’s kind of annoying. I used to read Twitter all the time back when almost everything was open to the public without having to make an account and sign in. I never saw a need to make an account since I wasn’t interested in posting anything or having discussions just reading. But now with the new ownership and all the changes, I don’t think that Twitter will ever be the same again as far as being open for anyone to read public tweets. Actually they are probably going to change their name to X I think. They already have the X logo instead of the bird. Will probably see them change the name officially to X, or maybe they will keep it as Twitter just have the parent company called X. We will have to wait and see what happens there. 😂

Does he have a snack every inning? Now that there is a DH more time to sit on the bench when your team is batting.
