Marlins Fire Sale

Word has it that Marlins president David Sampson will be trading players to cut payroll to about $40 million. That means there's a good chance that between Alex Rodriguez and Manny Ramirez - they will make more in salary combined than the entire Marlins payroll. That's sick.

It's also not the first time. In 2004 - A-Rod and Manny took home more than the entire payroll of the Devil Rays. That year Tampa finished with a 70-91 record. I get the feeling that will be about the over / under mark for the 2006 Marlins.
