    What might Ricky net us?

    Didn't the Fish want Montero for him at the deadline?

      So if we make their contracts even, it would make sense for us to trade for the significantly worse pitcher?

      I'm going to assume part of your post got cut off. There has to be more to this.
      Assuming the Marlins don't take on money above their Nolasco commitment, the Yankees have a 2-year commitment rather than a 3-year commitment. The Yankees get the more "consistent" of the two, the Marlins get the substantially higher upside.

      Unless I'm mistaken, the money the Yanks would pay out to the Marlins doesn't hit their luxury tax number either.

      It's the kind of trade the Marlins should make, but the Yankees probably wouldn't (I wouldn't pay to take the lower ceilinged player).

        some of u r soooo clueless! LMAO.....why in God's name would we trade a ridiculously inconsistent pitcher for one who's even worse?

            Do the Marlins get something on top of AJ Burnett and cash? I don't see how, salaries being equal, that makes any sense. Ok, it's a shorter commitment. That's great. But AJ Burnett is going to be 35 next year. What reason is there to say he has upside?

            At best, it's a wash on the field. The Marlins should be aiming a lot higher than AJ Burnett.

              AJ is a huge douche. If improving the teams douche level is a goal for the offseason, it is the perfect acquisition.

                Again, everyone talking about the douche thing is severely understanding how these things work. The douche also has to be better than the other douches on the team, or the other douches on the team will have no douche to listen to and they will all not care and be a bunch of current season Hanley's. However, the new douche, no matter how douchey, cannot succeed unless he there are other douches on the team so that he can look up to those douches and follow in the footdouches.

                It's a horrible cycle that some sort of Big Z created.

                It makes no sense.

                I didn't make it this way.

                  Yankees will be the 1st call we make however Nova will be off the table. The deal we will be looking at would be- Austin Romine and pitching prospects for him

                    I'm sorry but Enrique would get absolutely blasted in the AL East

                      Not our problem Metes!


                      I still like Burnett idea. Anytime you can trade a pitcher for another one who isn't as good and makes more money, you pretty much gotta do it.

                        Just questionable why the NYY would be so hard after a righty fly-baller

                        He'll be giving up Volstad-esque homers

                          And would AJ Really want to come back here? Not that he would have a choice, but that might be a problem if he does not want to be here at all.

                              I didn't see what Hugg said. I was just saying in general.

                                Don't see why we'd be interested in Romine.
