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

[lilchris11]

he had two season with injurys soo what he came back healthy this season and you know what played very good
--------------------

Before this year Beltran had only played 64 games the previous year and 81 the year before that. Other than 2009, Reyes has been over 120 games the last two years and the 4 years before 09 he had played 150+ each season.

Bucks deal was 4.5 this year and 6 mil the next two seasons.

[Swifty]

Great, that 6 million instead of 7 million makes him worth it.

Bucks deal was 4.5 this year and 6 mil the next two seasons.

Um, that's great and all, but that doesn't add up to $18 mil.

[Erick]

Yeah, you're forgetting the part where that money is freed up to spend on someone who deserves it. Burnett and Lackey basically serve the role of the spring training invitee.

Yeah, you're forgetting the part where the Yankees and Red Sox aren't just going to bend over backwards for us.

So then the point's moot. Team didn't get worse. Yay

$1.5 million signing bonus

[Bobbob1313]

He signed a backloaded deal. Wasn't it 3/$21?

Yes. He's making $12 split equally between 12-13.

Lackey makes $30.5 in 12-13. And another $15.25 in 14.

So the Red Sox are going to take on our $12 million plus throw in ~$35 million to get rid of Lackey. They are going to pay $47 million dollars for the right to have John Buck?

A: how do you think adding shitty ass worst pitcher in baseball worse than Chris Volstad John Lackey is a good idea?

B: how do you think the Red Sox will take on roughly $45 million dollars?

C: what the fuck?

Are you being serious right now?

[Erick]

The trades suck for the Marlins, too.

Nolasco is worth more than Burnett straight up.
Buck is worth more than Lackey straight up.

Yes. He's making $12 split equally between 12-13.

Lackey makes $30.5 in 12-13. And another $15.25 in 14.

The bolded really sums up all the thoughts.

He can't play the outfield productively anymore. He'll most likely DH somewhere.

[Bobbob1313]

Burnett and Lackey basically serve the role of the spring training invitee.

So the Yankees will eat $33 million and take on the $21.5 million owed to Nolasco.

And the Red Sox will eat the $45.75 million owed to Lackey and take on the $12 million owed to buck.

Seriously, what the fuck?

[lilchris11]

He can't play the outfield productively anymore. He'll most likely DH somewhere.

he jus played 142 games in the outfield this season while hitting very good????????? yeah he might be a DH next season but he can still play

[Bobbob1313]

Great, that 6 million instead of 7 million makes him worth it.

But you said $8 million...
