caulfield12 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 (edited) Playoff bound...too bad we missed on Robles last year, but this is our genuine opportunity. Do we still have Snith-Njigba? Well we now have three solid defenders in Rojas Amaya and Taylor. So there's that. Edited February 11 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand True, but he’s the only one with the potential to put up big numbers and carry the team for a week or two. If he’s traded, this year’s roster makes last year’s roster look solid. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 (edited) Now pushing the $70 million payroll mark...until you subtract $20 million with Robert's salary and pass the Marlins on the way to the very bottom of the majors by $15 million. Or is it $20 million next year? Can't bother to look it up again. Edited February 11 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
