Marlins Acquire Jarred Cosart from Astros

[Erick]

Wates is nothing special. 4th OF type,can play all 3 OF spots,hits .300 with speed but has leg issues. So just an older Brent Keys

Ya watch for Cishek to Boston during winter for a 3B actually

For a guy who has leg issues, he steals a lot of bases with great efficiency.

[ochre]

Ambivalent on the trade but wondering what the market was looking like for Cishek. It feels like a missed opportunity to not trade him at this point.

[Mainge]

Okay.

And Marisnick was an all-hype-no-results bat whose stock had dropped.

Moran was a league average, non-impact bat at 3B.

We got 3 legitimate pieces.

Wates could be a leadoff hitter in CF (once we trade Stanton and move Ozuna to RF).

Romero's stock has been soaring, they're going to resign McGehee next year no matter what, and we'll trade an arm for an infielder.

Kike is a valuable piece for any team to have, even if he doesn't end up being a starter (which he very well may).

I think it's weird to call Kike and Wates legitimate pieces but not Marisnick and Moran that.

I don't think Marisnick and Moran are that good but I think they're better than Kike and Wates.

The trade is not surprising tho-they had been shopping Marisnick,Dietrich,Pick all around the league hoping to get a young SP.

They had to put Moran in for Dietrich but got a 22 yr old maybe starter at 2B(probably super utility) when they did that

[Big Z]

Hearing it was all about "control" They were willing to talk prospects but wanted a guy longer than 2015 if they traded prospects. In other words Loria wasn't gonna shell out big cash for Price

Sure opened his wallet. Can't wait until he sells the team.

Nah,the closer market never dies. Should be able to get the same value if not more in the Winter.

The market was 2 or 3 players with 1 being a Top Prospect and likely a ML Ready BP arm

all the Wates youtube highlights from this season

[Miamarlin21]

Cishek for Cecchini would be cool with me.

Kike has some pop

[HUGG]

interesting note right at the beginning that he changed his whole swing in the off-season

[HUGG]

btw, Hutton and Waltz screaming Kike's name is gonna be awful

WOULD YOU PLEASE STOP

You have absolutely no fucking clue what his role on this team now nor in the future is going to be just like you have no fucking clue what is going on behind the scenes of the Marlins front office, so quit trying to act like you fucking do.

Ya watch for Cishek to Boston during winter for a 3B actually

the major difference being that Keys is hitting .225 at AA

[HUGG]

Keys has 5 SB on 8 attempts too, they're not even remotely comparable
