What were the marlins thinking not getting manny ramirez?

Question

I understand one of the reason the trade was not done was because the Marlins wanted Manny, $9 million dollars and two of bostons top prospects? Instead we get a 900 year old relief pitcher.....

Answer 1

one of the good things about the marlins is their getting the most bang for their buck. they have the lowest salary  and still are a really good team. manny would boost the salary  up a lot and he just wouldnt fit in the rotation. he would do more harm then good

Answer 2

Thanks for the laugh, lol, a 900 year old relief pitcher.

Honestly even as a Dodger fan I think he could have done great with the Marlins. But the fish were just asking for way to much

Answer 3

Manny would have single handedly doubled the Marlins salary and drag their defense down.

Answer 4

What were the Marlins thinking about anything?

For years, they've been focused on keeping their payroll under $20 million (or whatever). Then they wanted Manny Ramirez, who is owed $20 million?

The Marlins were focused on a young team. And now they've got a veteran pitcher?

Do they have a game plan?

Answer 5

Manny is a Dodger now!

I have to say i am really happy about this trade, i know the players were really close to LaRoche, but im sure he'll come back someday.

Answer 6

manny is a virus... his attitude is S****y and will just drag the rest of the players down... he's the T.O. of baseball.
