We better not trade Joey Wendle

completely agree. We have him under control for next year. He's not an all star even though he was named one last year with tampa, but he's a quality major league starter. And to me, I get the whole trading guys when you're out of it to re-tool, but like I said last week, what are you gonna get for these fringe guys that will produce more than they can next year when we are still trying to compete. It's not like we're going through a full re-build again, we just need some hitting. What are you realistically going to get for a guy like Joey wendle that will be more impactful for this lineup next year? nothing.

A guy who can give you a .750 OPS consistently with positional versatility is not a guy you throw away for no reason because you're out of it. Same thing with cooper. Why trade him instead of just stashing him for next year? Teams often over think things and think that not being in the race means you deal every non star you have, but this team is going to try to compete next year, and Cooper is a quality hitter.

I saw lou the other day say "you can find DH/1b types every year in free agency" and while he's absolutely right in the abstract, has this front office given the fan base any kind of reassurance that they will pick the right guy? How many guys like that have come here and shit the bed? I imagine its a lot more likely they manage to find the next Michael morse before they find the next garrett cooper.

Best catch by a CF all year for us by Bleday there.

[Lee Stone]

Based on collective OPS, that has to be the worst starting lineup in Marlin history tonite.

[Nick]

What I would give to see a 2022 where we signed Marte/Jansen instead of Garcia/Soler.

[Erick]

Mets hitting Sandy tonight led by Starling Marte. Nice job by the Marlins to not bring him back. Who needs him?

[Namaste]

Nido’s bunt looked just like Luke Williams bunt. Oh wait, no it didn’t

Game over

Why the fuck is Pablo pitching today? This is the dumbest organization in baseball. What is the risk/reward here?

[fish16]

What a stupid fucking organization.

[Nick]

Yep the incompetence of this organization never ceases to amaze me.

If they had any offers for Pablo that even remotely interested the team, they never would have pitched him on Sunday.. Clear to me that they didn't get that offer.

Even if you didn't, push him back a couple of days. You don't know what offers you'll get between Sunday and Tuesday.

This ump sucks shit.

[Namaste]

8 straight home losses is clutch!

and of course stallings is having his best run as a marlin the last few weeks so they will try to argue he's turning it around.
