Astros outrighted Tim Byrdak today among others. He'll become a free agent. I am kinda interested for him to be our second lefty.

It took the Yankee Stadium crew five days what the Joe Robbie Stadium crew does in 12 hours (and much more).

He's definitely a guy that should only be a LOOGY.

Well, my dreams of us getting Zach Duke have come to an end. The Diamondbacks have acquired the lefty for a player to be named later.

I like MLBTR, it's pretty cool seeing all the information on there. My favorite thing is looking at trade histories of GMs.

[Miamarlin21]

Five Thanksgivings ago the Marlins acquired short stop Hanley Ramirez, right-handed pitchers Anibal Sanchez, Jesus Delgado, and Jose Garcia from the Boston Red Sox for right-handed pitchers Josh Beckett, Guillermo Mota, and infielder Mike Lowell.

Reminisce guys, a great day in Marlins history.

I mean... I guess

Also, on this date seven years ago, the Florida Marlins traded first baseman Derrek Lee to the Chicago Cubs for first baseman Hee-Seop Choi and right-handed pitcher Mike Nannini.

I don't believe we talked about him yet on here, but I may be wrong. Joel Zumaya? I want him.

[Ramp]

why

[Miamarlin21]

Well if he's non-tendered, and coming off surgery, he could be a low risk high reward guy.

his arm is hanging by a thread

someone will give him more money or whatever than us anyway

[Miamarlin21]

Probably true. Just food for though (or however that saying goes.)
