December 13, 20178 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 13, 2017 -> 01:10 PM) That takes a potential Abreu player off of the table as I have to imagine a lot of their prospects are moving in that deal. its the Marlins we are talking about here, they practically gave Stanton away
December 13, 20178 yr Author QUOTE (reiks12 @ Dec 13, 2017 -> 12:13 PM) its the Marlins we are talking about here, they practically gave Stanton away This is a very different deal. I can give you about $300 million reasons why.
December 13, 20178 yr QUOTE (reiks12 @ Dec 13, 2017 -> 12:13 PM) its the Marlins we are talking about here, they practically gave Stanton away Because he had $295 million left on his contract. Marcell Ozuna is going to get something like $8-10 million this year and next. There is a huge, huge difference between Ozuna and Stanton.

December 13, 20178 yr I'm going to guess Flaherty, and 2 of there MLB OF.. Like a Bader and Piscotty/Grichuk

December 13, 20178 yr Just saw that. I don't think this pulls them out of the Abreu sweepstakes.. The Cards still need a first baseman. Still a good match. The questions really is what would they have left in the farm after the Ozuna deal and will they weaken it more from it for Abreu?
December 13, 20178 yr Jon Heyman LINK now alcantara goes to malrins in ozuna deal Edited December 13, 20178 yr by Sleepy Harold
December 13, 20178 yr Rox also a fit for Avi, I suppose, if they don't think Dahl comes back strong. I think they should push hard for Yelich, though. They need more hitters/fielders. Yelich + Carlos Santana makes them a pretty tough team.

December 13, 20178 yr Cards will likely still be in the market for a CI whether it be at 1B or 3B (Abreu, Longoria, Donaldson and even Machado).
December 13, 20178 yr Jon Heyman @JonHeyman 38s an a's trade for stephen piscotty from cardinals is "edging closer" via @susanslusser. @Ken_Rosenthal connected those 2 teams earlier.

Wow. guess we know he isn't in the Marlins deal.. How many years did Ozuna have on his deal?

December 13, 20178 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Dec 13, 2017 -> 02:36 PM) I'm gathering that Avisail has no market. Perhaps Avi could have a market when the Marlins talent feeding frenzy ends. Yelich is as good as gone after the Ozuna deal.

There weren't that many teams that were a fit anyways, and those teams are taking on marlins outfielders or the results of marlins outfielders being traded.
