Though Dontrelle Willis was eligible for arbitration a year earlier than Miguel Cabrera, both cannot become free agents until after 2009. Knowing the Marlins usually don't give multiyear contracts to players well before free agency, Willis said he won't push for one.
'"His choice is to sign a long-term deal here, but I wouldn't be offended if they don't propose it," agent Matt Sosnick said. Without a stadium, "the Marlins' position is probably different than other teams. I can't blame them." . . .
ALSO: 'In his strongest comment since being fired, Joe Girardi told The New York Times last week the Marlins "mistreated" him at times. "Not true," Jeffrey Loria told the newspaper without elaborating. Girardi also said he was "misled a bit" about the team's payroll, "but I'm OK with that."'(MiamiHerald)
