that isnt remotely the point and i would like to think that you realize how dense and obtuse you're being but that's probably giving you way too much credit
my point was that the outrage coming from braves fans is acting like acuna was already done for the season. Nothing was known yet and the info available was already positive. Yet you are still fapping to revenge scenarios. Yeah, your rage is over the top.
I have no idea if the braves/Marlins ever were involved There were rumors of a soto/realmuto package with the nats and a tucker package from Houston in the offseason but either that was bullshit or we decided to keep him All anyone could say was that we were asking for a kings ransom back for him and considering how well he is playing again I can’t see that price drop down
Marlins wanted Robles, Nats offered Soto. Probably should have said yes. Then we said no to Robles at the TDL. You absolutely demand a king's ransom for the best catcher in baseball. It's the hardest position to find. and he is elite both with the bat and with the glove.
I know its hard for marlins fans to understand potentially losing a player during a playoff race because a team full of hardos had their wittle feelings hurt, but come on
I mean, we did get knocked out of a playoff race because a hardo threw inside and shattered Stanton's face and I laugh at the amount of outrage going on today for a guy who is day-to-day compared to Stanton almost being blinded
I’m sure CF3234 would be cool with FSU going after Miami’s running backs ACL after he scored 3 TDs on them if they didn’t actually hurt him.
He’s under team control for I believe 3 more seasons and jeter has made comments about wanting to build the future around him but not sure how he feels about that He asked for a trade the same time yelich did but really had no leverage in demanding it
Update on players in return for Stanton Jorge Guzman...bad (doing okay in A ball at 22y/o) Jose Devers...whatever (sturggling in A ball but only 18, zero power) Starlin Castro....you know what he is
.313 OBP (14 walks to 49 ks) is absolutely awful for somebody that was claimed to be a zero-power, leadoff potential, speed type player.
I have no idea about his scouting reports when we traded for him but if he was touted as having no power why is that in your complaints about him...having zero power
That’s like complaining that an average fielder we traded for...ended up being an average fielder We could have gotten better prospects from STL or SF but Stanton wasn’t interested in playing for them We were put into a shit spot with very little leverage, are we forgetting how this all went down?
Yelich having a mvp caliber year....good for the kid And I say kid because he’s 26 and gonna only get better
So I checked out after the offseason because I just couldn't get interested at all in this franchise and so I'm just now learning that Yelich has hit for 2 cycles and may with the NL MVP. So we traded one actual MVP and another possible MVP that could have been in the same outfield and that's part of Jeter's plan?? GTFO of here.
Haven’t we tried to pull this shit with all the cuban free agents? With them usually settling on the bigger deal of course
I have no idea, can’t recall us really going after any of the big named Cuban FA’s other than Cespedes
They always make an attempt, it’s just never competitive. They tried to get Chapman when he came over but came in like 15 million under the reds.
Marlins got some recruiting tips from UM/FSU/UF. leave a jersey in the locker for them to try on before the showcase.
he was one of the most sought after relievers at the deadline and we played hard ball. I know this money is to go after Victor Victor, but my god what a bad return for a guy who had sky high value at the TDL
Watch us do all this and they still sign elsewhere On the other hand...if we do get all 3 of these Cubans....
The dad was running around wearing a Marlins hat while they were in town. It feels like the plan is for them to all go to the same spot. I would hope we aren't dumb enough to be buying IFA money without a handshake deal with all 3 considering that IFA money is worthless once those guys are off the board.
