"(D)isregard those national Web site rumors that had them (the Marlins) interested in
receiving slick-fielding shortstop Jason Bartlett...there are no plans to move Dan Uggla off
second base...(Manny Acta) said he had "no idea" how Bonifacio might fare at third
should the Marlins follow through with plans to audition him there next
spring. Bonifacio, who was reaching base at a .377 clip in winter ball,
has been playing right field almost exclusively in the Dominican
Republic..." (SunSentinel)
"The Marlins are confident John Baker can handle regular catching
duties...Marlins president David Samson told reporters that, even in a sour
economy, the club is under no pressure to trade additional players in
order to trim payroll. He said owner Jeffrey Loria has not ordered a
payroll reduction." (MiamiHerald)
"The Marlins will publish a 2009 calendar of the Manatees, their
all-male, full-figured cheerleading review...(Samson says) 'Our (season-ticket) renewal rates are up from last year thanks to the
World Baseball Classic and frankly having a low base but you cannot
assume the industry will perform.' (PalmBeachPost)
