2023 Game Thread

This team we have now could use a right-handed Justin Bour when Bour was good for us. We had no real power other than Soler, who is probably leaving next year.

Totally agree. It’s a good fit, I just would’ve liked a little more of a sure thing if we were going to give up Eder.

Can Jean go back to playing some SS? The Marlins don’t seem to care much about defense anyway.

Wendle/Jean platoon at SS.

Berti. He is grading well defensively.

Berti, Arraez, and Burger are 6 day a week players with low off days here on out. Segura can sneak some games on lefties and Wendle righties, absent more moves.

[fish16]

so do we now go knizner, flaherty, gallegos?

[fish16]

I think cooper and wendle are gone in the next hour.

[sports24/7]

One more bat, and an arm would be really nice. I'm not sure I'd expect more (although it does feel like they are going hard after a SP), but if they're really going for it, I think more is needed.

[sports24/7]

I wonder if they move Cooper after adding Burger.

Add Carlson/Edman and preach

Rogers, Watson/Cappe, Fulton, Mesa Jr., and a FV40s (Miller, Fitterer, Maldonado) get it done assuming medicals check out enough.


2023

Stallings, Knizner
Cooper/Yuli
Arraez
Berti, Wendle
Burger, Segura
Jazz, DLC
Carlson/Edman (we'll just put Edman here for discussions sake)
Soler, Garcia
(AAA - Edwards or replace Cooper/Yuli or Wendle)

Sandy, Flaherty, Eury, Cabrera
Luzardo, Garrett
Gallegos, Lopez, Cueto/Brazoban
Puk, Scott, Okert, Nardi


2024 <--- Would have $20-25m to spend or more if Bruce isn't a cheap bastard

Fortes, Knizner
Burger
Arraez, Edwards
_____, Berti
_____, Segura (maybe keep Cappe here in case he blooms into a 3B and use Watson if they like him)
Jazz, DLC
Carlson/Edman
Garcia/Myers (may the best win in camp) (with Berry looming as a last bat and shuffle the team to make room if he works out)

Sandy, Eury, Cabrera, _____
Luzardo, Garrett
Gallegos, Lopez, Bender/all the AAA guys (Meyer looming, SP7)
Puk, Scott, Okert, Nardi (Monteverde 8th SP after Meyer)


I would be so proud of them if they pull off a Cardinals banger. Edman is more ideal than Carlson still IMO so set up the SS situation and target OF instead.

Burger has only grounded into 3 double plays this year. That's also something the lineup doesn't have.

[Lee Stone]

normally you have to wait a few years to see how deals will work out. Not in this case. Trading Eder for Burger is a travesty. Johnston is a vastly better option for first base.

That 31% whiff rate is paying off already

I gotta say, I'm stunned by this take.

[rmc523]

D'Backs get Pham.

Hopefully Kim has something in the works.

9 mins left

Really? I thought you were one of the few who knew what the Marlins had in Eder.

[rmc523]

Orioles getting Flaherty.

No, I was being sarcastic, you've been negative on every single thing the marlins have done over the past year. Despite the fact this being so far one of the best years in Marlins history.
