  • Price "Drops" on JT and buzzards come flying over

    #Phillies recently checked in on #Marlins’ Realmuto, sources tell The Athletic.
    Phils, like many teams, routinely monitor markets for top players in trades and free agency. Continued availability of Realmuto led to renewed communication. No indication deal is close.

    - - - - - - - - - -

    They tried months ago and wouldn't even talk about Top guys but Marlins have interest in what they got

    Sixto/Haseley/Nick Williams/Alfaro/low level MIF

    I wouldn't count Philly IN on JT especially since like Atlanta they have to overpay since in NL East and Miami isn't a fan of helping them add Harper or Machago but this is what Miami has been waiting for-makes Atlanta/LAD/Cincy/SD raise prices. Like said Harper/Machado is killing JT market(No one knows what to do at this point)

          Good platoon partner for Dean or Cooper.

            Exactly LHB who can play CF, U now have

            LF-Dean/Cooper(RH)Grandy/Walker(LH)
            CF-Brinson(RH)/Grandy(LH)
            RF-BA/Cooper(RH)Grandy/Walker(LH)

            till July when u trade Grandy and Walker then call up Sierra and Ramirez or Harrison(if looks great)

            - - - - - - - - - -

            We have offers still out for Bud Norris/Adam Warren(ML deals) and AJ/few others on Invite deals.

            Heard we also got 1 or 2 other offers on bats for Invite deals and told Martin Maldonado's people interest as well

            Still have 2 roster spots open-2 Pen Jobs. *Not counting C situation which will be ?/Holaday

            - - - - - - - - - -

            So we paid 2-4 million for Walker and Grandy!!(Maybe we throw cash in to get better prospects at deadline)

            Curtis Granderson will earn $1.75M if he makes the #Marlins’ roster, with the chance to add another $250K in incentives.

              We have 3 OF'ers better than Granderson? I must've missed it.

              Granderson will likely be worth nothing at the deadline.

                No but likely they roll out Dean/Brinson/BA OF to start year with Grandy getting tons of AB's

                Grandy/Walker/Castro/Straily all with be worth noting

                  No, but he is a good stop-gap to get to July. He does still project as a 1 WAR player. You could see him get a "Mills" loogy (Bour deal) at the deadline. He's also probably a good clubhouse influence for the kids.

                  C - _____, Wallach/Holaday/Other
                  1B - Walker, O'Brien/Cooper
                  2B - Castro
                  SS - Rojas, Riddle
                  3B - Prado
                  LF - Granderson,
                  CF - Brinson, Herrera/TBD
                  RF - Anderson

                  Granderson isn't going to step foot in CF

                  Cooper has an option I believe, he's going to AAA with Dean and Sierra unless he really beats out O'Brien and he is DFA'd.

                  Herrera has literally Sierra to beat for the roster. No one else can play CF unless there is a meteoric VVM/Monte rise. Guerrero and Ramirez are C-OF right?

                  I see another MiLB CF option coming in.

                    I agree with that, just pointing out his trade value will be minimal at best. I'm ok with the signing since it's a lost year anyway. Helps to keep the younger players developing in the minors.

                      Marlins 2019: Minimal at best.

                      Can the site get a slogan?

                        Ya Dean/Guerrero/Ramirez/Cooper are all RH Corner OF guys

                        CF guys still out there are

                        Denard Span(LH)
                        Maybin
                        Carlos Gomez
                        Austin Jackson
                        Adam Jones

                        Agreed Grandy should NOT step in CF just saying they could use him over other options IF needed

                          Given that Brinson is no sure thing, they should be striving for a legitimate 4th OF to platoon with Granderson in LF, basically back up Prado as Anderson would shift to 3B on those days, and otherwise backup Brinson/Anderson in the OF.

                          That guy is going to play "a lot" even if Brinson works out and can play everyday. They can still really sell playing time here.

                              I'd like to see AAA as Dean-Sierra-Ramirez/Whoever and AA as Miller-VVM-Monte(he needs it)

                              I don't see this as a surplus problem. Pompey can go to A+ for sure and move up when others promoted. There is no rush.

                              • love the granderson signing. lefty power bat who should be decent enough to start ad give 300-400 ab's while the young guys develop. also a phenomenal clubhouse guy. great signing for a minors deal.
