He signed with the Cubs i believe

He's still a free agent.

Was he the replay guy?

[emkayseven]

yes

[tjfla]

Not sure it matters switching RP speeds when they don't go through lineup multiple times

Well if bats see McGowan,Bearclaw,Phelps,Ellington its pretty much fastballs at 97/98 for 3 innings. They want to switch it up so that bats see different stuff

Well Logan is a FA but likely will want Mike Dunn cash.

Shine was gone a few weeks ago-other teams have been picking off alot of our guys actually

Clay Buchholz went to the Phillies for a minor league second baseman, Josh Tobias. No cash changing hands, so presumably the Phillies are paying his contract?

[andre0814]

yup Phillies are paying Buchholz salary

Pretty much why we passed on him. Tobias is equal to Avery Romero for us. Problem was $$

When prices drop we might add another SP but 10 mil+ is too much for #5 starter right now

So this is the latest post from the Marlins' Facebook page. I lol'd so hard.

Apparently Jonny Gomes wants to play again, could he be a potential low cost signing as a bat off the bench against lefties?

Pittsburgh signed Ivan Nova to a 3-year, $26M deal.

Pittsburgh signed Ivan Nova to a 3-year, $26M deal.

When people ask about Fister,Hammel,Wood just post this. As of right now all the guys want deal around 3/30 which is why no alot of movement and more teams are trading for arms. If market drops too 1 or 2 years-we might be players but too rich for us at this moment

A sleeper might be Pineda from NYY. We have made an offer but lowball one-possible tho if we up it to a ML ready RP(Ellington) and more we could get him

[Namaste]

Very few things should be "too rich" for the Marlins after they've gone this far to improve the team after Jose's tragic death.

Edwin 3/$65 Tribe. Tremendous move.

Totally worth that price. Would have liked to be involved, but hey, he's going to a top 3 team in the league. Good for him and the Tribe.

[rmc523]

That's about what I proposed....3/60 with an opt out. Oh well!

[Party]

I can't wait for my sales rep to call and try to sell m on how much "better" the team is.
