Minor league deal, he is also considering minor league offers from the Indians and Mets

[Dr Beinfest]

Oh f***ing joy.

[Jokersgoon]

I remember the whole deal with him and the gyro ball.

[mystikol87]

Mmmmmm, gyros.

[CanesCop86]

What's the point?

[gizmo]

Actually I don't mind this if its for a reasonable price. 

[dim]

At least we're not offering him $111 million, amirite Theo

[Bret Hart]

What's the point?

 

It seems no team has offered major league contract to Dice-K.

[fanofthefish]

Seeing the Red Sox are my American League team and I am glad he's no longer with the team, I will pray to whatever God would keep Dice-Suck from playing for my favorite team!

[yokofox33]

I actually want this to happen. I want scream things at him in Japanese.Things like, "Why didn't Hinako call me back???!!!!"

[SilverBullet1929]

I dunno what to think here but I guess we could probably do Wuertz. Is there any chance he bounces back strong?

[legacyofCangelosi]

I don't see how anyone can possibly be against this move. It's a minor league deal. If he blows who cares the team loses nothing. If he's serviceable, great.

 

Win-Win for the team.

I love this

[Wild Card]

I have no issues with this, chances are he's going to be much improved in the National lease, especially pitching at Marlins Park...

[Piazza31]

Give him a cheap Major League Deal and just cut him if he sucks. Your paying 15 million for Reyes bell and guillen to not work for you, why not add a bit more on top.

Could he be a effective reliever?

This seems like a fine idea. His velocity has been dropping since 2007, but I mean i'm sure he has 2 decent pitches?

 

I wonder why he doesn't just go back to Japan and play there over taking a minor league deal here

[MarlinKidd101]

Because Murrica!

[SilverBullet1929]

He probably likes bacon. There's no bacon in Japan.

[pollyvonwog]

if he signed with us and made the mlb team, he'd be the first japanese marlin right? I know we once had a korean....

Two Korean's.

 

Hee-Seop Choi and Byung Hyun Kim.

Three! The Marlins have had 3 players born in Korea, why does everyone forget about Tommy Phelps?

[Backin2008]

I would rather have Carl Pavano.

[Fish4Life]

For cheap, wouldn't mind this at all... Nothing to lose at this point

Because he's Tommy Phelps.

I actually kind of agree with the Marlins' strategy of showing interest in these pitchers with past major league success. If they don't perform, oh well, expectations for this season are fairly low anyways. If we do get any semblance of production out of them, we can flip them for a prospect at the deadline.
