Cabrerra

Wow...Florida's clubhouse is falling apart...I don't like the way these quotes sound, but if Miggy is causing a stir down there I'd sure be interested in seeing him in our outfield for the next 4-5 years...althought dusty would have to go to ensure he didnt' become SammyII.

 

(From ESPN)

Cabrera isn't in the mood for a lecture, however.

 

"[Forget] the veterans," he told the Post. "They haven't told me anything and they better not come tell me anything, either.

 

"I don't want to hear anything else. I want to play baseball, give what I have to give on the field of play, and win. That's all I want. ...

 

"Everyone here is a grown man," he told the newspaper. "Everyone knows what he's doing. And I'm not going to go crazy worrying about these things."

Wishful thinking! Ownership would fire McKeon 100 times over before losing Cabrera

That doesn't sound like Sammy at all. To me he sounds like a frustrated player who is dealing with a disapointing end of the season. I wouldn't read too much into the quotes.

There have been criticisms about Cabrera's work ethic as long as I can remember. To me, Cabrera is just very immature yet. We all know people that mature a little slower than others. For whatever reason, when we see it in an athlete, its more difficult to accept.

Anybody else get a kick out of:

 

"[Forget] the veterans," he told the Post. "They haven't told me anything and they better not come tell me anything, either.

 

I was laughing out loud on that quote.

the espn article in question

not getting his outfield practice in so he can talk with his friends, nice.

So the '05 Marlins are beginning to sound like the '04 Cubs...

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

i'd still take MC, even with his attitude problems. S T U D. i'm sure florida is more than willing to put up with it too.

[TheDude]

I guess those Manny Ramirez comparisons aren't that far off.

I wonder if they'll be dumb enough to think that getting rid of attitudes will be enough to improve the team in 2006.

Have they started to blame the announcers for thier losses yet?
