I wasn't around to actually vote in the polls, so I will give you my answers in text.

I give the Marlins offseason a straight F. They were completely reckless with what little trade assets they had left. We traded two highly reputable players for 1B/DH prospects, prospects with zero power and maybe a glove, and 5'9 2B who have unsustainable power. Any real General Manager mind would've gotten better returns for their valuable pieces. Peter Bendix failed spectactularly here.

2024 was bad. It was so bad, the Marlins lost 100 games for the 4th time in franchise history. Instead of infusing the system with talented prospects, they did nothing but overload an already crowded position. So now 2025 is looking to take an even further step back than 2024 did. Except, now, there will be no help from the farm system. It's very plausible to see this team lose more than 110 games in 2025. This is not hyperbole. Unless they do an immaculate job with drafting prospects (which, sadly, the 2024 draft gave us a brief glimpse at Bendix's drafting strategy, and it doesn't look good), things will remain bleak for the forseeable future. 2024 was horrible, but 2025 is going to somehow be worse. Remarkably worse, at that. If we don't finish last place, then something has gone horribly wrong in Washington.

C, Somewhat worse, 5th.  There's little hope left for '25 with Luzardo and Brax gone from the rotation, and our biggest HR threat traded for prospects that are not going to help this year.  I give it a C only because I'd rather see the kids play than a bunch of below avg vets.  But that could still happen, as we need to spend to avoid a grievance.  Somehow Tanner Scott just signed a contract bigger than our entire payroll (including Avi Garcia).  In less than a year, we went from our best bullpen ever to the worst in the league.  I doubt we would win the AAA International League this year.  But at least we have a plan and our minors is much improved.  We've spent money on Tech and staff, and that gives me hope that some prospects will show some improved outcomes.

How would you grade the Marlins' offseason so far? b- but c- if marlins don't pick up a inning pitcher  after  Braxton injure .  Or  call ups minnor player till Eury Pérez returns.

Since the previous season ended, the Marlins have gotten?  Somewhat better . meaning sandy back , have SS Xavier Edwards, for a full  year ( not t. anderson part time) , G. conine  will see more playing time, Agustín Ramírez should be playing sometime this year (  I find it hard to believe the Marlins will start the clock on them in late March..   the payroll may bring him up early ), 3B Connor Norby,  LF Kyle Stowers,  their room for them to improve .  lol was the marlins playing better at end of 2024  they did sweep blue jays.  

 Where will the Marlins rank in the NL East next season?  I will say 3 place cause I like to have hop team do better and be fun to watch.

I did not see this poll before.

1.  D.  While it is possible the farm was improved (still to be determined) they have COMPLETELY given up any hope for a fun 2025.  This was not necessarily needed. Keeping Burger and Luzardo and spending on a LF and C could have made this somewhat interesting. While Rome wasn't built in a day, rebuilds don't need to be done that quick either.

2.  E.    Easy question

3.  E.     Surprise......another easy question.
