    Jose Reyes' name in trade talks??? Marlins "bait-and-switch" their fans.

    They signed all these big money guys in the off season to get ticket sales up (because of the new stadium) and now they're dumping as many as they can to get payroll down. Unreal.

    No one will go just like whats happening now

    Getting the stadium did nothing other then selling the suites and the season ticket signups

    They still need people to show up

    And its not a shit franchise 2 championships in first 11 years

    Theyve been raping teams for years in trades getting A+ prospects

    But if they're trying to move Reyes already, it was a scam from the start. Try and win with this big payroll team, sell some some seats and then dump it it doesn't work at the trade deadline. You'll lose some season ticket holders next year, but not all. It's actually a pretty smart move.

    This is %100 percent correct. While there is reason to be upset with the franchise, they have 2 championships in just over a decade. They are small market in terms of baseball. If anything, these guys know how to run an organization correctly if you want to win.

    It's still a shame though, because this team had NUMEROUS talented, young pieces.

    Not surprised. Marlins are in it only if the group that they have is competing for the playoffs. Otherwise they take their balls and go home.

    Marlins buy and sell
    Fail they sell quickly but they go back later and go shopping it worked twice.
    The fan support is weak you gotta back your team winning an losing only 1 team wins in the end.

    Dominicans are the worst type to have in your team

    You never want too many or they band together and create a cancer

    They are lazy also as players and do not care a out winning


    Pieces of garbage as far as being on a team

    White and black best combo on MLB rosters

    Reyes is known as a cancer. Not sure what the big deal is here.

    the Marlins biggest problem is their biggest cancer is the manager.

    Turns out the Miami Marlins are keeping some of their talents in South Beach.

    The selling Marlins are seeking a "Teixeira-like" package for top young starter Josh Johnson, so unless the requests are lowered there is no guarantee he'll join Anibal Sanchez, Omar Infante and Hanley Ramirez as ex-Marlins. Plus, they're telling teams Jose Reyes and Mark Buehrle are off-limits altogether.

    The Marlins lost out on the best off-season buy and that was Gio, they picked up bad contracts from Reyes to Zambrano.

    And there it is along with Buehrle. That is a deceitful move by management to sell season tickets for a new stadium.
