Hey, Alex. I have a job opening for you. You like the weather in Florida, right???

"The Marlins organization has decided to make some changes at the helm of our baseball operations," team owner Jeffrey Loria said in a statement. - It should have started with him
-
For sure Thanks for doing so much of the work this year -
Kind of like AA getting Reyes and Buerhle?? [/Gibbers Impression]

MLB.com: MIAMI -- The Marlins on Friday afternoon announced that they were relieving president of baseball operations Larry Beinfest of his duties, effective immediately. Beinfest, who has headed the personnel department since 2002, departs with three games remaining in the second 100-loss season in franchise history. Also on Friday, Jim Fleming was relieved of his duties as special assistant to the president of baseball operations. "The Marlins organization has decided to make some changes at the helm of our baseball operations," team owner Jeffrey Loria said in a statement. "Effective immediately, I have relieved Larry Beinfest of his duties so that he may pursue other opportunities.

I think Rasmus should be extended before the arbitration deadline for 3-4 years at slightly less AAV than his best year of arbitration would get him. I think he accepts.

Anyone feel like breaking down the payroll implications of: Trade Rasmus, Stroman, Janssen for David Price or Chris Sale. (Use Delabar or Santos for closer) Sign Ellsbury or Choo for 5 years Sign Ruiz (prefer McCann but Ruiz more realistic) Let Rajai walk and keep Gose as 4th OF (money savings) Trade Happ for nothing but salary relief (prob eat 1/3 of salary) Is that so outrageously expensive that it's not even worth discussing??
-
Yes, Yankees have been mathematically eliminated. And are playing the worst team in baseball (Houston) Only Tampa Cleveland and Texas have a shot at the wild cards
-
Yeah, for those who have forgotten, shagging fly balls cost him most of the 2012 season

(In either scenario I'm presuming we sign Ruiz or similar)
-
Which would you rather do? A. Keep Rasmus, Stroman and Sanchez and sign Garza or Tanaka (good but not ace caliber starter at ~ 15MM per) B. Trade Rasmus plus one of Stoman or Sanchez plus maybe Janssen for a higher level pitcher (eg. Price, Sale) and sign Choo or Ellsbury as a free agent B makes the team better in 2014 than A does, BUT it costs you a top pitching prospect and costs more $$
-
Osuna is TJS recovering isn't he? And so young too. I'd think any team would MUCH prefer Sanchez or Stroman.

AA has really painted himself in to a corner 1. He can't go half assed in to next year (ie. fail to updrade SP and C) or he's doomed for failure and he knows it 2. He's (presumably) pushing payroll limits to some degree 3. He's already traded away half the good prospects and the ones he kept aren't all performing. He can't really afford to trade for a David Price or Chris Sale without losing the bit of quality farm (Sanchez, Stroman especially) he has left. He really has no choice for 2014 but to throw good money after bad and pick up a FA catcher and SP and cross his fingers. If the team fails next year despite that it's time for a total rebuild and a new GM

And it you're planning a full rebuild after next year there's no Bautista out there
-
Plus he likes the relaxed marijuana laws up here so...
-
I'd say that was one of those years where there were really good position players with excellent years (Bautista, Cabrera, Ellsbury) but maybe not a CLEAR front runner among them? Not sure what the voters thought exactly but maybe those guys "split the vote"
-
Above from Jayson Stark FYI if people were wondering and didn't click the link
-
Neither will be tied to draft pick compensation either which is nice. I want AA in hard on one of them.
-
You pretty much only see pitchers get it when one has an insane year AND there's no clear cut positional player who stands out above every body. But McCutheon is doing the latter. No disrespect to Kershaw - he gets the Cy, McCutheon is MVP.

We should also extend Colby for 4 years first too for a bit less than he might be through arbitration next two years. #JobSecurity
-
That's the plan mid or end of 2014 if the team still sux
-
Exactly That's all AA has to work with We can't trade Edwin, Lawrie, Reyes or any of the (2) reliable starters because we need them
