Description: Yankees GM or Marlins GM?


TheHugeUnit - September 23, 2006 12:31 AM (GMT)
I only want responses that can back up their vote

I think it's hard to compare them when they are kinda doing different things. Yank's GM is trying to win now and not worrying as much about the prospects while the Fish's GM is building for the future..... you can't tell how good the Marlin's moves are until the young players reach their prime.....

I'll say this much: The Marlins scouting team has got to be one of the best in the league.

TheHugeUnit - September 23, 2006 12:35 AM (GMT)
I don't see how you can't say Cash. Bruney and Rasner thats what GMs dream about. Sanchez and Hanley where his big add ons they came at the cost of loweel and beckett and the trade fell in his lap anyways. Delgado owns mike jacobs. villone was a steal.Bruney is leathal weapon in the Yankees bullpen. Rasner is turnin out to be a nice Long man for 2007. Guiel deserves a play off spot, I was NOT a fan of him due to he took bubbas spot but he is turning out to be some increadiable find.

You know who I have. Bani has gotten the right talent for this team to compete this year through the firesale trades and the Rule 5. Getting Hanley and Anibal from the Sox for Lowell and Beckett has paid huge dividends for us and the other 2 we got could become good RP for us down the road.

The Mets trades could give us a future pretty good starter in Petit and probobly our 1B at least for a few years in Jacobs. Along with some other ok prospects.

The Pierre deal got us Ricky Nolasco who's won 11 games for us this season.

Who can forget the man they call "Dan Uggla" who we stole from the D-Backs in the Rule 5 this year to.

Thank you Larry Banifest, your one of the best GM's in the game today.

No look at Rasner, Bruney and Guiel. Even Proctor, Cano, Wang and Melky along with Tabata

You gotta agree after the way we scouted players out in the offseason.

Look at some of the crazy young pitching prospescts we have in the minors and all the rookies who have led us this year.

How did you let Bruney and Rasner slip through oyour fingers then?

We didn't let them slip through "oyour" fingers lol. I don't really know who those to are but I don't think we really need them.

Bruney is one of the best RP right now and Rasner is 3-0 with a 2.00 ERA....

Still never heard of them but since you don't really know Nolasco I guess were even. With the UDFA thing that kinda has to do with the Yankees being the Yankees and having the option to give them a huge bonus so that kinda plays against the Marlins payroll and finaces.

Marlinschamps03 - September 23, 2006 12:49 AM (GMT)
Well I'm going to go watch some TV for the night and I'll be back on tomorrow for some more debating. Continue on the rest of you and choose who you really think is better don't be hating on your rivals. ;)

Rockshu - September 23, 2006 12:55 AM (GMT)
Bruney has done well, but he's also only pitched 17 or so innings. Hardly a proven find.

The exact same thing goes for Rasner. Relievers can go from godlike to trash in a short amount of time. For an example, Chacon, Small, the entire Blue Jays bullpen...

If Bruney and Rasner can carry their success into the future, then I'll agree that Cashman might have the edge. But at this point, 17 innings isn't nearly a large enough sample.

monty - September 23, 2006 01:04 AM (GMT)
I think its Cashman. How can it not be?

TheHugeUnit - September 23, 2006 01:05 AM (GMT)
True but what about Proctor or calling up Melky or the Chacon for Wilson trade or the Fansano trade or even picking up ponson for a few good starts.

Rockshu - September 23, 2006 01:10 AM (GMT)
Melky and Proctor are definetely solid, but how about Cabrera? He's home grown Marlin talent and he destroys both of them.

Cano is pretty good too :unsure: or a lot better than womack

NateFizzle - September 23, 2006 03:06 PM (GMT)
Cashman. He can and will fill any whole the Yankees need with a really good player. I just don't see gambles on non-MLB proven guys can account for much. (even though they are doing good)

Well isn't part of that that he has pretty much an unlimited spending limit compared to a 15 mil Marlins payroll. Plus if the unproven talent does work out that should be a plus to the GM and organization.

You wana start a Cano vs Cabrera debate? :P You can add Johnson and Olsen to Marlins homegrown talent and probobly our best bullpen pitcher since he got called up Tankersley who we got in the 04 draft. Hermida even though he's had a down year (to say the least) is home grown and should be back next season. Our 05 first round draftees are coming along fine in the Minors and most if not all of them could turn out to be good if not great major league pitchers.

Maybe take the winner of both polls and put them in a championship poll? :unsure:

Marlinschamps03 - September 23, 2006 06:16 PM (GMT)
Stupid me misspelled his last name, It's Beinfest not Banifest. Would a mod or someone mind changing that?

2002NLChamps - September 23, 2006 07:04 PM (GMT)
I vote Jim Bowden because he owned the Reds and Giants...just depends if he can resign Soriano.

He should be up there.

I'm sure if the Yankees traded all their players away they'd be stacked with prospects too.

Well ya people will give up prospects for their players and it wouldn't be for a salary dump either though so they could take their time doing it and find a way to get probobly better prospects then the Marlins did since they have better players overall.
