Drastic change in store for Marlins

Good Morning Boys!!

First thing on the change list: Ozzie's T&R picture.

Hey Loria! Get rid of that midget son in law, David Samson.

What a joke , Thanks for finally spending a few bucks to motivate the fans , only to rip it apart after half a season. House cleaning from top to bottom is long overdue.

What a pathetic organization that swindled the taxpayers for that new stadium. The sad thing is the Marlins have as many World Series Titles as my Phillies yet established we were in 1883 while they were established in 1993!

so who has the pathetic organization?

It is simple the person or persons who pull the trigger on off season signings, terrible trades during the season, and maybe even motor mouth needs to go.

My Phillies did for about 100 of their 129 years of existence!

Yeah that's a real bummer.

the marlins got just about everything new,, except new GM and new owner, now the owner and the GM should know better, nobody can win championships in the first try,,,

perhaps the marlins should be moved to the american west division,,,, who knows they may have better %% in winning the pennant or get in the playoffs by the wildcard??

right now as it is???
the red sox,
the indians,
the padres,
the astros,
the royals,
the twins,
the mariners,
the colorado rockies,
the blue jays,
the phillies?? doubtfull,

there are worse organizations,,,, the indians are always starting good then they fade away smootly,,
the royals had been the worse organization for more than 15 years or so,,
the mariners are another bad organization they just can't find the right door bell in either direction,,,

The Marlins should have been more patient. Even the incredibly talented Heat needed a season to gel before winning a championship.

Yesterday's story from Miami said the problem was the owner who ignored the baseball people and signed bad contracts. Today's story is that the baseball people are likely to be fired. Moral: don't talk bad about the owner.

That's the exact opposite of how the Marlins have won their two World Series. They're a flash-in-the-pan franchise, and I see no reason that will ever change.

I agree as atleast the Marlins have had 2 parades in their history. Teams like Indians and Cubs haven't won World Series for a LONG time, and then you have teams like the Padres, Rays, Rockies, Nationals/Expos, Astros, Mariners, and Brewers who have NEVER won a World Series.

So long as Loria owns them, you're absolutely right.

That doesn't mean they SHOULDN'T change. They brought in great talent in the off-season, a WS winning Manager, and have a revitalized fan base in a new stadium - yet they're flushing it all down the toilet after 2/3 of a season of mediocre results. Besides, you're wrong on how they won their titles. They won by bringing in high-priced talent to strengthen a core of young, promising home-grown talent - exactly what they are doing now. Just give it a little time...
