Yea from what I recall reading yesterday, Ramirez says he's perfectly happy to move to 3rd base if it means they sign Reyes. Which of course, now I write that out it's one of those "well what did you expect him to say?" kind of things :P But hey ya never know.

Wow. Came in this thread to read what people were thinking about free agents. Didn't expect to see that. Hopefully, he is safely returned.

This is a mock up from a web site and not the official uniforms, FYI.

Those uniforms actually wouldn't be that bad, but the M with the fish on it still looks terrible.

Id scrap the yellow in the hat (including the yellow billed one) and keep the blue
always liked the Marlins old colors

I got a feeling those uniforms will get old fast, they kinda remind me of a toned down Padres/Astros jersey from years past...

Rumor is if the Marlins make an offer to Reyes it'll be a 3 year deal with a lot of money per season. Something along the lines of 3yrs/$60-70m.

Well Hanley will be making $15m and JJ about the same next year. But yeah, that'll be quite a jump. Especially when you pair it with Buerhrle and the Cuban dude who we'll be signing.

$20M for Reyes seems like something the Mets would match... good strategy Miami.

Lol.

Well you figure he'll be deciding between 6-7 years at $16-17 million or 3 years at $22 million or so with the chance to hit free agency again in his prime. It's an interesting tactic if nothing else.

Edit:
Pujols meeting with Marlins tomorrow.

Edit again:
Either today or tomorrow. ESPN says today, AP, MLB says tomorrow.
