Marlins Fans Call On Owner Bruce Sherman To Sell Team 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon May 13, 2024 11:51 am

Miami Marlins fans are not happy in the wake of the Luis Arraez trade.

A handful of fans protested outside LoanDepot Park prior to Friday\'s game against the Philadelphia Phillies with fans imploring owner Bruce Sherman to sell the team.

\"We are only a few here but the majority of fans are disgusted,\" said Luis De Armas, a decades-long Marlins fan and the organizer of the protest. \"We want to continue coming to the games but not when it remains a losing club. All because of an owner who promised us one thing and did something else.\" 

After dealing Arraez, Marlins executive Peter Bendix indicated that more deals were on the horizon.

\"That\'s part of the calculation. It\'s part of the value of the player for the rest of the season when unfortunately our record is what it is, and the fact is that we\'re unlikely to make the playoffs this year,\" Bendix said. \"Trading that for future value seems like the right thing for this organization right now.\"

Even with the two World Series trophies, this franchise, since incarnation, has never been run correctly.

I call on mlb to contract or move the marlins. Nobody cares about the marlins. Any team who does 3-4 fire sales within 20 years like the marlins have done, should be put in relegation to a lower division with the worst organizations in mlb with the a's, pirates, & some others. Or contracted or moved. Portland & Tennessee wants a team, send the team there.
Another reason to contract the marlins, they did a player who wanted to stay with them very dirty. He asked for a no-trade contract, they brainwashed him to waive the no-trade clause for an extra $7 million, then traded him next season. If you're a crap franchise & if there's someone that wants to play for you, you keep him.
