Contract the Marlins.

I honestly can't recall an owner swindling a city harder than he has Miami with this deal at this point. Promised to sign all these guys to get a free new stadium from the county (after pulling some shady stuff to get it approved in the first place), only to ditch them as soon as he could to cut costs.
This is worse than anything the Bengals ever did. |

Re: Blue Jays Acquiring J.Johnson and M.Buerhle
Looks like they just did.
I think the Blue Jays got Billy Marlin as well.

Re: Blue Jays Acquiring J.Johnson and M.Buerhle
Looks like I'll get some great seats when the Reds come to Miami.

Re: Blue Jays Acquiring J.Johnson and M.Buerhle
I mean, the guy killed the Expos and baseball's market in Montreal for good. They are really going to let him do the same in Miami?
Also, the Reds should be asking about Bonifacio.

Re: Blue Jays Acquiring J.Johnson and M.Buerhle
Yes, Toronto. I think they are likely open to wheeling and dealing as necessary.

Re: Blue Jays Acquiring J.Johnson and M.Buerhle
Hypothetically, let's say this trade ends up helping the Marlins become winners. Are people still going to hate on Loria?
