So glad we didn’t move him when we didn’t plan to match the option. Great job everyone
The Miami Rays
Why not at least use the option and trade him? Clearly interest if he’s commanding 13 million. Don’t get it.
So does that mean we now have another hole to fill?
✌️
Makes a lot of sense they lost Ronnie Henríquez and Pete needs the warmth. A true Ray icon wishing him the absolute best
One of all time favorite Rays. Goodnight, my sweet prince.
Good for him, I hope he does well.
I love Pete but that’s a horrible contract. Miami outbidding itself
strange that two franchises that are famous for being cheap decided to both waste money in this situation instead of working out a deal to have the option excercised and then a trade. Rays paid $1 mil buyout to Pete and Marlins spend $2 mil more than they would have had to with the $11 option salary.
He definitely getting traded at the deadline
Loved Fairbanks but it was time. He was trending way down and I don’t think we were gonna come anywhere near that contract. Hope he succeeds in Miami.
Did they not look into trading him before he signed a contract for MORE than he was due this year?
Starting to think our front office is cooked, they did so well for a long time people don’t question moves like this but I’m stumped on this one
Intrasin
I’m gonna miss him
Atleast since he struggled closing out games the Marlins won’t have many leads in the 9th inning.
There’s no real point in spending money where we’re at, but we should have tried to get some value at the deadline if we didn’t want to pay him
Seems like the ghost of Charlie O is lurking in the rays front office
