Video: The 2023 Marlins Have Aged Horribly

[Ely Sussman]

Admit it: the 2023 Miami Marlins season felt fluky, even in the moment. Fast-forward two years later, most of the players from that team have experienced regression or injuries (or both). Ely Sussman checks in on how things have changed.

Well, true. All good points in the video. Is it too soon to think about trading Sandy, Augustin, Stowers, Sanchez, Lake, um, who else? Oh hell, let's just trade ALL of our current players for players to-be-named-later or whatever, like a pitcher! It's always fun to watch them come back in the uniforms of the other teams to play against us and kill us! I want our team to achieve the record of having EVERY player traded, every year, then having them come back and kill us. That would be sweet!

The team's "every decent player will be traded" stigma will take a while to shake off, and deservedly so. I'll just point out that last year was Bendix's first year in charge. He was hired to reset the organization from the ground up and he implemented changes quickly. I doubt we see that kind of trade frenzy from him again.

I guess I'm just a "glass half-empty" kind of guy. 🫤 Hey, btw, can you change my Profile name to MarlinsFaninGa? Somehow I forgot the "s" when I hit enter and I don't see a way to change it.
