Do the Marlins Make a Deadline Move on July 31st?

[Mainge]

It would have been ideal to get someone to bat 4th because then everyone moves down and suddenly our lineup is very dangerous. But if he is slotted at 2 everyone 4-8 is still one spot higher than they should be.

It sounds like you are making excuses for this trade. Defense? Seriously? We are looking to upgrade on defense with a player we will only have for 2 months? Sorry 2 months of even Gold Glove defense doesnt even make the difference of 1 win for a team.

If by making excuses, you mean making great points to prove why it's a good trade for the Marlins then yes. He's making excuses.

Like I said before; I think some people are really underestimating the impact that Johnson would have on this offense.

I find it cool how close the deal was made so close to the deadline...was like 5 minutes away.

[Marlinsfan4lyfe]

I was right




But i voted after the deadline passed and we made the move

I think it was actually like two minutes. Good stuff.

I hate your sig

We probably won't make a deal, but if we do I think we'll get Nick Johnson and cause massive riots on the streets of Washington.
