Yea, and the whole deal $2-3 more in price. That was also compensating for chance of arbitration which the experts thought was going to be mid 4's. Despite the fact it could have easily been higher because JJ killed people last year.

This would be the update

C John Baker $415,000
1B Gaby Sanchez $405,000
2B Dan Uggla $7,500,000
3B Jorge Cantu $5,500,000
SS Hanley Ramirez $7,000,000
LF Chris Coghlan $410,000
CF Cameron Maybin $405,000

I wonder how much of this has to do with losing out on Chapman; or in the alternative, if they realized that bidding on Chapman made the organization look like assholes when they weren't giving JJ money.

[Bobbob1313]

I don't think this had anything to do with anything other than JJ. We were going to sign him no matter what else we did.

[Jewbility]

For all the turmoil we went thru up until this point, I would hardly say we were going to sign him no matter what. i think everyone is very surprised by this, given the circumstnaces

I am not

What are the circumstances?

[Bobbob1313]

I think the people involved in the deal are probably not surprised.

Sosnick is a dick, but he knew the Marlins weren't going to not let this deal get done, no matter how much chest puffing he did. And the Marlins knew they were going to get a deal done, because they had to. They knew JJ wasn't going to turn down 39 million when it was sitting in front of him, and I'm guessing their offer didn't come as a surprise to them.

I mean we (the fans) are surprised by the signing. Even if you hoped for it, all signs pointed toward the contrary

Like I said, the signs were what some douchetard said to the media and what he said was so fucking unbelievable that everyone who believed it should be publicly stoned with their own petrified doodies..

[Bobbob1313]

I mean, I guess. I always assumed it was all posturing on Sosnick's part.

We literally only heard his side of the story.

[Jewbility]

Beef, if that's the case then why was everyone on the website all doom and gloom when that news came out a couple months ago? I'm sure there were some people (maybe even you) who may have expected this, but hte majority of people were legitimately worried that this wouldn't get done.

[Beef]

Most everyone deserves a doodie stoning
