    I'd like to see Yellich, but I doubt the Marlins would trade him.

    He can't be traded until next year and Cosart and Hernandez aren't getting you the #2 pick this fast.

    Dumb move IMO. I am actually crying right now..I really like Cosart and I felt he has the best stuff in our rotation. We gave up Kiki also which is dumb. He is hitting in MLB right now. We better get back Moran in this trade

    If true, that is, in the wise words of Brad Lidge, "****ing Huge!"

    Moran was one of my dark horse picks for 1.1 last year.

    Honestly, I wasn't a huge fan of Moran last year especially at 1.1; he just seems pretty average all around, but I can see the value of it.

    Not too sure about him either but sounds like Moran AND the comp pick will be the sweetener of the deal. You know Luhnow loves him some comp picks. I love that MLB can trade these picks now.

    Hello #1 and #2 picks in 2015. They did their best to secure another 100 loss season today.

    Don't like this at all

    Hope I'm wrong and it works out

    Should help us get top two picks next year, whatever that is worth
