    Still a top 3 offense in the league so I wouldn’t go crazy yet. Call up Whitley, get urquity back, and try to stay strong

    You think Verlander getting hurt deserves a complete fire sell?

    We were (almost) World Series bound without Wade Miller and Andy Pettitte.

    Yuli, Springer, Brantley, and Reddick will be free agents as well. How well will Verlander be able to comeback next season? There are a lot of things lining up for a rebuild. Except we lost our first round pick next year.

    4 Marlins just tested positive. Not sure the season will last anyway.
