Stark: Marlins Could Be Big Players This Off-Season UPDATE: All Big Names In Play

[HUGG]

Exactly what Ramp said. He was equally as terrible as Sizemore was.

If we had to pay Petersen 6 million dollars, I wouldn't want him anywhere near this team.

We have like $25 million to spend in free agency and you want to spend 25% of it on a guy who gets hurt all the time and looks washed up. I just don't get it.

Keep what up? Petey wasn't that good in 74 games

thats my whole point

[HUGG]

Sizemore hasn't been good since 2009.
--------------------
You may recall that BEFORE he got injured in 2010, people were asking where his bat speed went and why he suddenly looks 39 years old.

[Bobbob1313]

Offensively, Petersen wasn't anything close to terrible last year.

And Fangraphs' defensive metric rated him much more favorably than did BR's, so he was a 1.7 WAR in 241 PAs, which is actually pretty phenomenal.

[Ramp]

thats my whole point

Right, and Sizemore was just as shitty except he's got a history of injuries over the last three seasons.

He won't be worth the $5mil+ he signs for to us. Too much risk involved.

I'd rather have Hammer (I know he doesn't play CF)

worth the risk play big win big. play small win small

[HUGG]

Why wouldn't you use that money to pay someone who's actually good though?

He was pretty terrible (nice on base percentage though)
--------------------

worth the risk play big win big. play small win small

why not spend that $5mil on someone who's legs aren't going to snap at any moment and has been good in the recent past?

[HUGG]

I feel like maybe the people in favor of this haven't actually seen him play in a couple years.

There's something terrible about a 105 OPS+?

like who maybe ross or even coco crisp? team needs at least a CF or 3B so boni can fill whatever is left over.right now there are alot more CF THEN 3B

[Metes]

He's still a top ten fantasy pick right?

Alllllllrighty then

alright, fine he was very average last year, whatever

I mean, his legs aren't that great anymore.

I'd rather see Bonifacio than pay Grady $5mil+

[Big Z]

Boni is our CF, Hanley 3B and Reyes SS.

End of discussion.
