Marlins in Puerto Rico - revisited

by craig on Feb 1, 2008 8:19 AM EST in News and Rumors

Since yesterday, everyone is trying to get their story straight and this is what is being presented now.

The Marlins might host a three-game series in San Juan, Puerto Rico, this season, a baseball official confirmed. The idea, which died in December after brief discussion, is back on. The official said there was a 50-50 chance of the Marlins playing there. One series believed to be under consideration is against the New York Mets, July 28-30.

For this to happen. the Marlins will have to fly to Chicago for a four-game set with the Cubs. Then fly to Puerto Rico for three games with the Mets. Then fly back to Miami to play the Rockies. Take a day-off. Then fly to Philly for the start of a six-game road trip.

Hopefully, MLB and the two clubs will mess around long enough trying to plan the thing that the trip to Puerto Rico will never take place.

It just sucks that it would be the Mets games being moved. I mean virtually any other team, and especially if it was some weekday games, you would hardly notice.
