No Maybin: Marlins Show What Not To Do

Posted in Braves, Marlins, Minors, National League on May 11, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

I guess given the Marlins hot start this year, the Florida Marlins brain trust has mistakenly bought into that their early season success is more of the trend, than a fluke.  It seems they really are banking on Emilio Bonifacio as an everyday player, rather than as a super sub. In doing so, they have [...]

Gotta Take Unhittable Santana over 2 Questionable Aces

Posted in Cy Young, Marlins, Mets, National League, Padres, Rotisserie on April 19, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

For one of my NL only fantasy squads, how to approach the availability of several top tier starting pitchers was something I wrestled with leading up to the auction draft this April.  With Santana available, I knew he would go for some big money. The thing I kept kicking around was would I be better [...]

Reyes passed by Hanley

Posted in Around the Web, Marlins, Mets, World Baseball Classic on March 7, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

As Jose Reyes was the original power-speed combo at shortstop. Now, Hanley Ramirez who is younger with similar skills has surpassed Reyes in the box scores, and now as the starting SS in the World Baseball classic. So much for Ramirez being Jose Reyes lite. He is the real deal.

Who’s On First, Whats on Second for Marlins

Posted in Marlins, National League on November 16, 2008 | Leave a Comment »

With The Florida Marlins off season thus far, one thing is clear. The franchise would prefer to remake itself rather than go forward with their latest collection of players who are about to make a lot of money through the arbitration process. As of last season,  the Marlins wisely broke the bank and locked up [...]

After 2 and 1/4 seasons, Hanley Hits Big Time

Posted in Around the Web, Long Term Contracts, Marlins, Mets, MLB, National League on May 10, 2008 | Leave a Comment »

What is going on in South Florida? They are performing the magic again with their third roster makeover . I was wrong about HRam: The loss of protection in the lieneup with Miguel Cabrera now in the American League. With less good pitches thrown his way, he likely will see his power number decrease, as [...]

The Pine Tar Incident Tape Measure Blast

Posted in American League, Angels, Around the Web, Cubs, fantasy, Former Player, Marlins, Matt Holiday, National League, NL East, Phillies, Projections, Rays, Sabermetrics, Yankees on February 24, 2008 | 3 Comments »

A few weeks ago we were wondering about Mattingly’s wife and what happened ? The Daily News has a story and pictures about Mattingly’s life, and Donnie’s current unfortunate situation. My first memory of Mattingly was the summer of 1983, when both Don and Steve Balboni were getting a shot at the first base job [...]

Sleepless in Seattle for a Kingdome like deal

Posted in American League, Angels, Around the Web, Athletics, Braves, Mariners, Marlins, Mets, MLB, National League, NL East, Orioles, Rangers on January 29, 2008 | 1 Comment »

I get what the Seattle Mariners are trying to do in the American League West. With the Oakland A’s and the Texas Rangers more than likely taking themselves out of contention with their rebuilding moves, there is no better time to strike a blockbuster deal that make them a serious player. Its been a long [...]

Upward Spiral for Hanley Ramirez?

Posted in American League, fantasy, Infield, Long Term Contracts, Marlins, Mets, MLB, National League, NL East, Outfield, Projections, Rockies, Rotisserie, Spring Training, Trade on January 23, 2008 | 3 Comments »

The Mets SS Jose Reyes in his young career has evolved into highly coveted player because of his ability to get on base, score a bunch of runs, a .300 batting average, home run ability, and his bread and butter the stolen bases. It was partway through last season, I made the statement calling Hanley [...]

Jose Reyes on pace for 85

Posted in Marlins, Mets, National League, Sabermetrics on July 24, 2007 | 1 Comment »

Reyes becomes better and better Take those 85 walks. Since baseball began to integrate in 1947, a grand total of six shortstops age 25 or younger have drawn 80 or more walks in a season. Two of them, Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez, you may have heard of. The other four are an odd bunch [...]
