• BK No More?

  • Burger KingAn interesting little note in MLB.com’s transaction wire claims that the Arizona Diamondbacks claimed Byung-Hyun Kim off waivers. Now, at this time of the year many players are placed on waivers and claimed but ultimately, their team can pull them back. That being said, these kinds of moves usually don’t appear on the actual transaction wire. With all the starters out we do need BK, but frankly he was never in our long term plans. We’ll find out soon if the Marlins and D-Backs complete this transaction.

    Update: Marlins broadcasters just confirmed the move. Marlins will not pull him back.

  • We Own Florida

  • I saw this at a ballpark the other day: Nike has created a “United Countries of Baseball” map depicting the United States as a collection of countries each supporting a baseball team. As you can see on the map, the Marlins essentially control most of Florida. Now, I take this map with a bit of skepticism because it exaggerates the support for the Washington Nationals and leaves a big chuck of the west without any loyalty. But, for a map geek and a Florida Marlins fan, this is a fun one.
