MLB '12-'13 OffSeason OT: Magic is the New Market Inefficiency

fire_sale.jpg


The cycle repeated...
as explosions broke in the sky,
all that I needed...
was the one thing I couldn't find,

And you were there at the turn
Waiting to let me know...

We're building it up...
To break it back down...
We're building it up...
To burn it down,
We can't wait,
To burn it to the ground...

The colors conflicted...
as the flames climbed into the clouds,
I wanted to fix this... but
couldn't stop from tearing it down,

And you were there at the turn,
caught in the burning glow...
And I was there at the turn,
Waiting to let you know...

We're building it up...
To break it back down...
We're building it up...
To burn it down,
We can't wait,
To burn it to the ground...

You told me yes, your spirits were high,
And I believed you when you said the Marlins would fly,
I bought season tickets while you played king,
And struck me down when I kissed that ring,
You lost that right to own a team,
I built them up but you crushed my dream,
so when you fail I'll take my turn,
and fan the flames as your ballpark burns,

Frankman, you hurt me. But not as much as this organization.

Bain Capital would run this shit better for God's sake.

Buck's coming back? JPA TRADE IMMINENT.

Edit: Also, someone's saying Marisnick is in the deal too, that better be bullshit!

So how much are the blue jays exactly giving up for all these players?
Yunel Escobar, Adeiny Hechavarria, Justin Nicolino (lowest ceiling of our Big 3 A-ball pitchers) and Henderson Alvarez.

So far.

Edit: TrippingOlney is killing it, holy shit.

So, 2 B+ pitchers, a decent MIF and a young average MIF for all that? shiiiiiiiiiiit.

Although it looks like Alvarez could be something special, but still holy shit.

I'm trying to inspire you. Just like in the Presidential Election Florida voters rebelled against the Republicans, so too must Marlins fans against Loria. I spent all last offseason hypingthe Marlins and how they got out of that shitty lease, and now they pull this shit?

Come on, Marlins fans of Florida. Everyone protest and burn that shit to the ground. Maybe then Loria will get the mesage. This is a fucking travesty if a third (fourth?) firesale happens. Can you imagine the money going out of your pocket to fund it and for nothing?
Seriously, The tax payers of Miami-Dade should be rioting outside of that abomination they call a stadium.
See? He gets it.

Alvarez definitely could, if he figures out a 3rd pitch. That ballpark should help him immensely though.

Dan Martin of The New York Post reports that the Yankees have had "preliminary discussions" about bringing Raul Ibanez back as a platoon player next season. The 40-year-old played more than the club would have liked this year due to Brett Gardner's injury.

no thanks

Selig can't let this trade happen right? It's going to be really tough for other unenthusiastic fan bases to pay for a new stadium again.
