MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) — There have been a lot of reasons for Miami Marlins players to be disappointed this season.
One of those reasons has to do with a promise from the team’s owner.
The Marlins have been slow out the gate this year, and their new custom-designed team plane has yet to get off the ground.
Team officials leased a Boeing 767-200 from a private company during the offseason and ordered it retrofitted with extra-large seats, couches, a massage table and card tables.
But the Marlins are still waiting for the plane to be finished and might not get it this season, team president David Samson said Wednesday.
