    I really don't think the Marlins' front office cares. It would just give them another reason to get out of Florida altogether, which seems to be what they want.

    The way it sounds, this isn't the end of the dealing. There's rumors surrounding Lo Duca, Castillo, Pierre, Mota, and Villone. Everyone not named Willis or Cabrera is available. Plus, the way it sounds, they made Conine an offer one-third of the size of his 05 salary, so he maybe looking for a new team as well.

    I wonder if Girardi knew what he was getting himself into...

      Most Marlin fans are fair weather fans anyway. They only show up when we go to the WS. They should be the last people screaming about the deals. I'm taking it in stride 2 WS in 8 yrs is good enough for me. We will be back in a few years. It's not like we had the Yankees payroll, or a new stadium in the works. Those Hurricanes all, but killed that chance. We won't be in Fla in 08.

        Fariweather or not, any teams fans deserve better. This is preety sad cause it's the exact same crap Loria did when he was in Montreal. Promised a new ball park, never happened. Promised he'd improve the team, never happened. Promised the Expos would stay in Montreal, never happened. This guy is a joke. He should not be allowed to own a team.

          I'm going to say it again. The Hurricanes all, but killed a chance to get the public in Fla to help build a stadium. Expo fans have a ax to grind with him, and it's reasonable. But, if he's such a bad owner he wouldn't have a WS title. It's not like he walked into a situation, and had a loaded team.

            yeah - those Las Vegas Marlins should have a good team in a few years... i dont understand the Marlins at all.. why do they sign these guys & trade away the next year? i like this deal as a Met fan (thanks Omar - even though i did bash ya on the Nady deal), but i feel the pain of Marlins fans..

              Were they really all that close to having a stadium done before all the hurricanes?

                    Good trade for the Mets they sure did need a big bat in that lineupa and Delgado certainly qualifies. The only question is Delgado going to be happy? He made it clear he didn't want to be here last offseason when he signed with the Marlins for less money. Now he has no choice.

                        Yes they were don't let the Palm Beach Times or what not fool you. They were just going back and forth on how much the taxpayers were going to pick up, and then the Hurricanes started rolling in and the talk died. Why do you think Lowell decided to sign that contractl? He wouldn't have if the talks weren't possible to get a new stadium. That was what was in his contract.

                          They pick up some of Delgado's contract so that they get better prospects back. It happens all the time.

                          BTW, is Jacobs the guy that came up and hit all the homers in his first couple of games last season? If so, he could be a very good player in the future. He will get ample opportunity in FLA.

                            yup - Jacobs hit 11 hrs in his stint last year with the Mets.. & he went nuts against the D-Backs shortly after his callup..

                              I hope Peter Angelos chokes and dies today. Day after f*cking day, he screws the Orioles over. We could have easily had Delgado if he wasn't such a cheap *** piece of sh*t. Choke and die, you prick.
