Let the games begin between new Marlins owner Derek Jeter and gunslinging general manager Dave Dombrowski of the Red Sox.
Jeter intends to keep the Marlins at a $90 million dollar payroll next season, per Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald. This would force the Marlins to cut $50 million from their estimated $140 million current payroll. With such a massive salary cut in store, it seems no one on the Marlins roster is safe. It’s clear the Marlins are ready to hit the reset button and enter a complete rebuild.
On the contrary, Dombrowski witnessed quite a disappointment to a once promising Red Sox season.
