I specifically insulted his posts as being misleading and FOS. As for the city of Miami, that was slightly in jest, but feel free to have at it with Lexington or Houston. I have my problems with both. Miami is notoriously the Worst Sports City in the nation, besides possibly Atlanta, which is exactly what I said. Their fans are fair-weathered and disloyal. That is a generalization, but a factual one.

I happen to have alot of knowledge about the marlins and if you think aj burnett would go for anything less than adam dunn would be using no common sense
luis castillo will probably resign assuming we have a taker for preston wilson...we will then have enough $$ for him we would never trade castillo for more pitching...our minors are loaded with prospects better than howington the marlins need a lefty bat-no thanks on casey and walker anything else to say dansforman?, resident expert on everything

Trade Dunn this offseason
We need to TRADE DUNN for an ace this offseason. We have Kearns who is a better ballplayer. Dunn's value is still high, but it will be lower as time goes on. We have capable OF'ers in our farm like Mateo and Pena. Who's with me??

I think you have a great passion for the Marlins, but undersand this.
Jim Bowden would not trade Adam Dunn to the Marlins for Josh Beckett, and A.J. Burnett. HE would not trade him for Bartolo Colon. He would not trade him for anyone. By the way.... IF the Marlins had Adam Dunn, they would not trade him to any team for A.J. Burnett. The most your going to get is about the same Cleveland garnered for Colon from Montreal. I would say Todd Walker (to replace departed Free Agent Luis Castillo) Wily Mo Pena Scott Dunn A ball pitcher for RHP A.J. Burnett Would be a good trade for the Marlins to get. They are not even going to get Howington or Moseley for Burnett. |

Dunn is a great player...
but I would rather have an ace. And Kearns is a better all-around player. Dunn will end up with a ton of HR's, but we don't need him as much as we need an ace.

The amount of time a guy has been here doesn't increase, nor decrease a guys brain power. Heh.
Take you, for an example.
