They are putting a lot of faith in Redmond knowing what he is doing. I would have loved to see that job interview.

Asked official with one of clubs if he has any concern that commissioner might kill the deal. His response: "None at all."

Also has this much salary ever been dumped before? 116 million to 16 million?

they somehow kept their best prospect

but they were high on Marisnick(#2 prospect by baseball america) and Hecherverria

Alvarez pitched a full season in the MLB last year at 22. Hech played in the bigs last year at 23

who knows. Not exactly the coup you'd expect for those guys, but they have some promise.

It depends on how well Redmond knew the talent. I'm curious to see if he went to the Marlins with this idea or they came to him with it. It is a big difference between a Lugnut & the majors.

they got nicolino too. He and marisnick are 2 pretty good prospects.

Marisnick top 100 guy.

Nicolino a 2nd rounder in 2010 that has a 2.09 ERA over 2 minor league seasons in A ball.
