The better question will be at what point does Bendix rid the Marlins of the last symbols of winning i.e.

Sandy Alcantara

Eury Perez

No later than August 1st 2025.

😂

You can't say Sandy next if Luzardo isn't even gone yet.

Also, no.

I’ve been right about everything basically since dix joined as our dixtator

As soon as Sandy can throw a Spring training outing without pain or excessive inflammation- he’ll be moved for a package that includes 5 Single A players on no ones radar and international signing pool money we’ll never use.

Eh, under Bruce we actually HAVE used our international money…….we just haven’t gotten anyone successful out of it in typical Marlins fashion lol.

Kinda hard to trust when they’re trading high caliber players before max value while reducing it more with quantity over quality. Not one prospect taken inside another teams top 5 with Arraez & Burger and now Luzardo will be dealt for Cassie to replace Burger as it’s reported that Cassie is controllable. Ng at least traded prospects for players who could help in the present. She was more conscious driven by adding stability to the current roster. Maybe that’s why she was canned. Never thought I would defend Ng thanks Bendix.

Faith in this organization has been running on fumes for years….and every time there’s a glimmer of hope, it’s time to start over.

I’ll believe it when I see it.

Good. He’s going to throw a no-hitter and be 7-4 with a 2.78 ERA in the first half. Named an all star. And then they trade him at the deadline. 😫

Seems like a good time to trade him if so, highest value!

you mean 3-8 with a 2.78 ERA with the run support he’ll have.

0-15 with 4 CGSOs

More value will be had at the mid way mark. Not sure why they rushed on the Burger trade. Skip definitely comes to mind.

Skip seems like a pretty loyal guy. To people he likes I mean.

Gets hired on a new team in their front office and immediately recommends to hire one of his staff as their bench coach and also to trade for one of his former players.

You know I’m actually starting to miss Skip. This will go down as one of maybe a hundred “imagine what could have been?” Scenarios for the Marlins. Like imagine what 5 years of Kim Ng and Skip could have built.. might have actually completed one of those “just wait 3-5 years for the Marlins to really start showing something” time frames that us Marlins fans have been hearing about since at least 2006. 😂

I don’t know how everything works but when a manager refuses to stay another year, accept a lower position while making less with the Rangers. I’d say something went wrong. (Bendix) Maybe loyalty netted 🍔 in some aspect because the trade seems like a pay off.

I want to defend Bendix but there’s to much red tape thus far. I wonder who else needs fired or traded so he can earn another medal badge on his uniform by being a dictator.

I would have been fine if they didn’t spend this year, trade some pitching for bats or trade some of those prospects that they got for Rogers, Jazz, Puk, & Scott. Instead we’re wasting another year or two on prospects that rarely work out.

Skip is also probably the defacto manager in waiting for when Bruce retires fwiw.

To be fair, Kim pushed herself into a corner (probably due to the hand she was given before her, and by Sherman) to where there was no other choice but to eventually blow up the roster. They certainly weren’t going to trade their way into more quality bats with the farm system dwindling… and we all know how slow she was to react to things. I don’t mind that she left.

However, I’m sensing a pattern. Jeter left (he sucked, granted…but still), Kim left, and now Skip left. Maybe Bruce is the one to blame for all this…
