08:23 AM ET 02.19 | The Marlins expect far more from Ricky Nolasco, who exasperated by yielding the most hits in the National League (244 in 206 innings) and the third-most earned runs (107) -- all after being given a three-year, $27 million extension. Nolasco privately was criticized by two former Marlins managers, one questioning his work ethic.

"Nolasco privately was criticized by two former Marlins managers"

Well, I guess someone broke the "privacy " rule. Now everybody knows.
Is there a convention going on for "former Marlin's managers? How come MLB Network isn't covering this?

This guy has potential, but is never to going to realize it until it's too late.

Trade him for a team starving for a pitcher, such as the Pirates or the Royals, for a couple of good young players. It clears payroll, and you might get back a nice player.

nolasco did what most players do, the team would sign you to a 3 years extension then after the team give you that type of a deal, you would turn around and play lousy and play the worse baseball in one single season, wonder what's the complain??? it could it be that the player itsn't too happy with that type of deal!!!
