Stanton will have 1-2 good years. Will not be the same after being hit in the face. Terrible terrible deal. Marlins will go nowhere.

Why do I feel like the Yankees will be paying the last 10 years of this contract?

What I think gets lost in the discussion is that Stanton is only 25 years old. He'll be 38 at the end of his contract. Players aren't necessarily dead in the water at 38 (Jeter led the league in hits at 38; Griffey hit 30 homers at 37).
The Marlins are in a good position right now. They have some great young pitching on the staff already and waiting on the farm. Marcel Ozuna and Christian Yelich took big steps forward last year. If Jose Fernandez comes back 100 percent from TJ they are going to contend in the weak NL East. Fernandez is under contract until 2019, so for almost half of the Stanton contract the two most exciting players will be on the same team. Last edited by packs; 11-18-2014 at 06:51 PM. |
