After signing a huge 100 million dollar plus deal, you will be seeing a Jose Reyes jersey in South Beach. Rumor has it Albert you know who is thinking about going there too. Another dream team perhaps? Only time will tell.
Reyes is one of the fastest guys in baseball still and can do more than run. He hits for a great average and has enough power to worry the defense. He is a nightmare on the base paths and could steal over 100 bases a year for the rest of his life if he really wanted too.
The Marlins have a history of building up some great teams to win a World Series, then kinda laying low for a few years. Could this be another run to the top or is it just another player to be signed.
Early in his career he was more of an average hitter with great speed, but he has evolved to one of the best hitting shortstops in the game today. His defense keeps getting better as well.
The Marlins should really benefit from the increased ticket and jerseys that they will be selling down in Miami, and they need to in order to make up for the huge contract they just gave him.
With this being the first big move in the off season, it will be very interesting to see what other moves are made in the world of baseball. Spring training is coming quicker than we can imagine so it will be a very short time until spring and baseball are right around the corner.
With a move like this, one now must wonder what the Mets will do to make up for the loss of one of the greatest players in the game today. They should have some free money now, so I am sure they will make a move.
