So they traded Buehrle, Johnson, Bonificio, and Jose Reyes. Good chance they finish with 50 wins this year. Maybe we can even beat them sometime too

It looks like the return will include Henderson Alvarez, Adeiny Hechevarria, Justin Nicolino, Jake Marisnick, and possibly Anthony Gose. Oh, and superstar Yunel Escobar.

I don't care so much about Stanton, but I'd like to know why we couldn't have gotten in on Johnson or Burehle.

...you don't care so much about one of the 3-5 best power hitters of the next decade?

well, obviously they got their publicly financed stadium, so now they don't give a freak.

this trade drops their non-arb payroll obligations to 16m. 16 MILLION. from 100+m where it was at the beginning of the season after they bought all of Free Agency.

Davey on the Manager of the Year conference call says he wishes the #Marlins would send the HR sculpture to Toronto, too.
