DeLino just beat out an infield hit, stole two bases and scored a fun and you think he can't produce much offense. You are just wrong.
that's the pattern he has a game like last night and then he can go 2 or 3 games where he is an automatic out. I like him and robinson but not as everyday players i would be more than happy to have them and rua on our bench with each getting 50 starts giving the regulars time off and for injuries

You sound like he is the only one that has a pattern.What about Gomez, Odor, Napoli etc. You just don't like the kid.

When we are WS contenders I would expect to have three outfielders who are substantially better overall than Delino. We won't be WS contenders for awhile so I have no problem with Delino playing everyday now if we are going to trade him when his trade value is at its highest at some point down the road. Although, next year I would expect Mazara and Calhoun to man the corners.

Now, if we are really in on Stanton then that changes the OF picture both in adding Stanton and in a possibility that one our young OF might be involved in the trade.

Won't be Choo. Hopefully not Maz so Rua Gomez or DeShields are suspect. Really don't think we are in on Stanton b/c of contract.

Don't think we will be in on Stanton. Because of contract and what we would have to give up.

The word is that the Marlins would have to pick up a substantial portion of Stanton's salary to make him tradeable. Taking Choo from us would in essence do that. Then it would come down to what else we would have to give up. What the Marlins are thought to be wanting is to unload his future salary and that it would not take a whole lot going back to the Marlins to land him. The more salary the Marlins pick up for Stanton the more the team trading for him would have to give up to get him.

Guess the early start caught everyone by surprise.
