The Marlins make more sense for Pete Fairbanks if he's looking at what's best for him.
Pete Fairbanks was one of this offseason’s best relief pitchers available. Non-tendered by the Tampa Bay Rays, he ended up signing with the Miami Marlins on Christmas Eve for $13 million, gaining $2 million more than he would have gotten from the Rays.
Usually when a team that doesn’t spend in free agency does fork over cash, we can have a “hey, good for you” attitude.
