Speculation Station: Steve Finley Good for the Marlins?

As the Marlins have made known their desire for a greater veteran presence on the team, Tom Krasovic writes:

"Maybe it's not a great idea to sign up Finley, but if I was a GM, I'd want my younger players to run through their paces alongside Finley in spring camp. Finley knows a lot about workout routines that build flexibility and strength. His attention to detail is excellent. He could help a centerfielder refines his skills. No one is better, for example, at landing safely after making an all-out dive for a ball. That's something Finley learned how to do.

"There are rumblings that the Marlins would like to move shortstop Hanley Ramirez to center field someday. If that were to happen sooner than later -- which is doubtful -- I'd want a guy like Finley around him all spring." (SignOnSanDiego)
