Nathan Eovaldi Lifts Marlins to Win

So, if he continues to pitch well, his market value will increase, but it won't increase. Got it.

My biggest problem is I don't think we'd get even close to an A- or so prospect for Cishek. Cishek's worked super under the radar for three years now. I have no way of knowing this obviously, but I don't see other GM's valuing Cishek to the level that he actually performs.

I mean, what?

I think it's perfectly fine to think the Marlins need to hang on to their good players. It's about fucking time they did that.

I just think relievers tend to not be worth the trouble.

I agree. If they were going to keep Cishek, I think they should have done this before 2013, where he only had 18 saves to his name and a year and a half of service time. I think they could have done something like 5/$20 at that time, likely with options. That might be worth it.

It's still hard to dish out that kind of coin to a reliever though, especially one with an arm angle like his, but if you really believe in the guy, that's the kind of lowball deal to try and save some bucks in arbitration and get a FA year or two. As with everything, the Marlins wait a year to long before making decisions on players longterm. I mean Chris Archer gets a deal and the Marlins aren't running to sign Fernandez?

Saying that, I still don't think I commit that kind of money to a reliever with that service time. It's just to much risk and not the trouble.
