Marlins look like they mean business early in the Hot Stove League.
The fish are circling. Get cracking Rizzo. :whip:

The meetings with Buehrle and Reyes will take place in South Florida, one source said. The meeting with Cespedes, which will include Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria, will take place in the Dominican Republic.

The black Marlins hat is hot, the rest are garbage.  The current black Marlins hat is one of the best in MLB, in my opinion.

I wonder how much they need to overpay for people to wear the orange duck uniforms?
They wear the orange uniforms on the field and on the streets because it is always hunting season in Coral Gables.

The yellow bill on the orange hat really does look like Howard the Duck's beak. 

I'd can the light blue and the yellow bill trim and go with dark blue.  Seriously, dark blue or black, orange, and white works well.  Why get complicated?   why stop at 2 pastels?  Why not the entire sherman-williams color selection?

The black one is the only one that I'd be caught wearing on the mean streets of The Danger Zone®; the others?  No thanks.

Confirming Madson with Phils, 4 for 44 mil. Fifth-year option worth 13 mil.

Please, please, please let Madson's fifth year be a player option. :lmao:

While it won't catch up with them yet, after freeing themselves of Lidge, they could have spent more effectively but now they essientially dug the same hole all over again. :lol: It is encouraging they continue to focus on winning now at the expense of the future.

This is what happens when a GM only cares about winning now- the next guy is going to inherit a mess
