Making shirts mocking the organization isn't a bad idea but that is just a terrible slogan

and D'aurnad

He's gonna get a nice letter from the Marlins attorney.

[emkayseven]

probably not, I'd imagine they'd only have a case if he was making money on it and let's be honest, no one in their right minds would waste money on that

[HUGG]

oak would.


Oh you qualified it with right minds.

### The Marlins are shopping shortstop Yunel Escobar, acquired from Toronto. If he’s dealt, that could leave Greg Dobbs and Kevin Kouzmanoff at third base, because Escobar is slated to play third if the Marlins can't find a taker.… Manager Mike Redmond last week called an angry Giancarlo Stanton, who is not eligible for free agency until November 2016, to try to smooth things over. The Marlins are not shopping Stanton, whose salary could jump from 500,000 in 2013 to $7 million in arbitration in 2014. Josh Johnson expects Stanton eventually wants to play in California, his home state.

Nothing new, but a blurb.

Escobar will never play a game. All hail Kouzmanoff.

Plan A!

I'd also like to point out, Stanton will probably eclipse that in arbitration but $7 would be a good buy out figure at this point.

[Fritz]

Plan A!

With all the Canadian players on the team now, shouldn't it be "Plan eh?"

[Party]

Waka waka!

[THE_REAL_MIBS]

Stanton is pissed at the front office because of the trade and they make Redmond call him? Classy. This goes back to that other article talking about the Marlins are still adolescent. That's such a grade school thing to do; "I don't want to talk to him. You go talk to him for me, okay?"

[Beef]

My goodness, does it say that?

Or perhaps Redmond thought it would be a good idea to reach out to his best player.

Jeez louise.

Holy shit.

You're reaching for shit.

Grade-school-like.

[Mainge]

I don't think it went down like that.

It's probably more like "He's mad at us. You're a recently retired player and World Series champion and he's not mad at you. Try to sweet talk him".

[CrimsonCane]

Couldn't Beinfest and/or Loria have already spoken to him? The article doesn't rule out that possibility or imply that Redmond was the first one in the organization to contact him.
