Deal done pending physical.
Deal done pending physical.
Well, it was predicted weeks ago, finally happens.
My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!
Man, that's going to be a huge mistake after a handful of years. Better them than the Reds imo.
Will win and flip work with a new stadium?
I wonder what this means for Matt Dominguez. If the Marlins are as high on them as they claim to be, maybe they'd be best served moving HanRam to second base when Omar Infante's contract is up.
If they manage to get a high-end starter, I'd say they're in pretty good shape for a wild card berth next year.

I don't see anyway he lasts more than 3 years with the Marlins. I give them credit for 'changing the perception', but I think once the Miami hype wears off I believe they'll go back to being the same old Marlins with a slightly higher budget.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Reyes
Infante
Hanley
Stanton
Sanchez
Morrison
If they add Buerhle or Wilson, they are a favorite for the Wild Card. I love what the Marlins are selling right now.
2015 Rotation: Under Construction
Just imagine if they do sign Pujols...
They should, they don't need to, but they should, just for the sheer spectacle. I imagine Sanchez and Coughlan and Infante could be packaged for a good pitcher or reliever or catcher, whatever.
Would they bat Pujols 3 or 4th?
2015 Rotation: Under Construction
If they signed Pujols their payroll would be huge and they'd be counting on a healthy Johnson to make a meaningful rotation. Perhaps they'd want a three way deal with the Reds for a CF or catcher while getting payroll relief and a young ace type from another team. Or maybe off load Nolasco for Volquez just to make room for Albert. You know I'm working my way towards another Hanley trade...
2015 Rotation: Under Construction
They'd package Gaby or Lomo with prospects for a pitcher. Infante isn't going anywhere. Coghlan has no value right now.
What's their upper limit for payroll? I figure they're at about 70-75 million before arb is settled. Another big FA will rocket them past 100 right?
