    • The Marlins made a three-year offer to Ricky Nolasco, who is not eligible for free agency until after 2012, but the sides are about $10 million apart. But remember, the Marlins had a bigger gap with Josh Johnson before striking a deal

      Good to know the media is finally getting it right that's it's after 2012 he's eligible for FA, rather than spurting out he's eligible after 2011 for the past couple of years

        It's not even the offseason and talks on multi year deals with Ricky and Uggla have started. Maybe a good sign of things to come.

          Three years is fine for Ricky. That's not too long and, therefore, not too big of a risk. After the way Anibal's pitched this year, I'd be okay with him getting three years too.

            I don't like extending Ricky. Not at all. Unless it's like 3/$18.

            He's the kind of pitcher you ride while he's pitching for a new contract and then let someone else get stuck holding the bag.

              Well he's under team control for the next two years, so he'd only be around for one more, then someone else could pay big for him on the FA market. And I'd hope something around 3/$21 would do it, which is fine for him (3/$27 is too much, yeah). Is he great? No. But he's worth the $7 mil per year over three years.

                Right, but let's just play the guaranteed dollars game. Ricky probably makes $16 mil-ish through his arbitration schedule. Maybe a little more if his 2011 is a 200 + inning and/or K campaign.

                Anyway, you're paying an incredibly high premium for that one free agent season under any three year deal their side is seeking. If it's a 3/21, I think it'd be done by now. I really hate the idea of 11+mil getting us a Ricky FA year.

                  What better way for the Marlins to deflect some of the negative publicity over their leaked financial documents than to announce a long-term commitment to another player before season’s end?The Marlins have begun exploring a multi-year deal withright-hander Ricky Nolasco, but don’t hold your breath for a celebratory press conference.

                  According to a source who spoke with Nolasco this week, a significant gulf exists between the two sides.

                  Reached Thursday, Nolasco’s agent, Matt Sosick, would only confirm he’d had substantive discussions with the club, but nothing was imminent. Sosnick and the Marlins after some early rough spots last offseason finalized Josh Johnson’s four-year, $39 million deal in January.

                  Nolasco is arbitration-eligible two more seasons. The Marlins have a policy that any multi-year deal has to buy out at least one year of free agency. It’s reasonable to assume the discussions centered on a three-year contract. Even if the Marlins and Nolasco only come to terms on a one-year pact this offseason, nothing precludes them from re-visiting a superseding multi-year contract before the 2011 season opens.

                  Next week, Nolasco will undergo season-ending surgery to fix a torn meniscus in his right knee. He made 26 starts and went 14-9 with a 4.51 ERA, 33 walks and 147 strikeouts in 157 2/3 innings. Since 2006, Nolasco (3.78) ranks fourth in strikeouts/walks among all pitchers with at least 700 innings since then. The guys ahead of him: Roy Halladay (4.81), Dan Haren (4.50) and Cliff Lee (3.86).

                    I'm reporting that Sosnick believes the Marlins blew it and will never ever be able to sign his client, ever.

                      Marlins have never gone to arbitration with a Sosnick client. He's a pansy.

                          I actually believe a lot of us will be happy if they don't agree to Ricky's demands because he is simply not worth that big of a contract.

                            With an eye towards the future, the Marlins are hoping to sign Ricky Nolasco to a multiyear contract. Based on how talks have gone recently, there is a better chance that the two sides will agree to a one-year deal for 2011, and see how things progress from there.

                            The last serious talks between both sides was last Thursday, Sept. 2. As reported recently by Juan Rodriguez of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, there is a "significant gulf" between the parties.

                            Indications are, for at least for now, the sides are planning on discussing a one-year deal after the season for 2011. Because Nolasco has "Super Two" arbitration status, he reached arbitration in 2009. But he won't have the necessary six-years of MLB service time to become a free agent until after the 2012 season. So Nolasco, who is making $3.8 million now, is under club control fortwo more years.

                            There is a chance the team will go year to year, meaning they will have Nolasco for when they move into their retractable-roof ballpark in the Little Havana section of Miami in 2012.

                            Nolasco is undergoing surgery to repair a medial meniscus tear in his right knee. Although he won't pitch again in 2010,there is no indication the Marlins are concerned about the right-hander having a speedy recovery.

                            As history has shown, having talks stall in early September doesn't mean a multiyear contract won't be reached sometime before the start of Spring Training in 2011. Last offseason is an example.

                            In November of 2009, negotiations between the Marlins and Josh Johnson broke down.In January, Johnson signed a four-year, $39 million contract.

                            Nolasco finished 2010 with a 14-9 record and a 4.51 ERA. His 54 wins are second most in Marlins history behind Dontrelle Willis' 68.

                            The Marlins also are in the process of trying to sign Dan Uggla to a multiyear contract. But both sides haven't talked seriously in about three weeks.
