Marlins relievers hitting for some extra cash


The Marlins relief corp are having a competition with one another and they are putting their money on the table.

An overturned call by the official scorer on Wednesday night cost Brian Sanches a hit and some extra pocket change. Well, more like $175.

---

It was a costly change. The Marlins relievers -- and there are seven of them -- have come up with a reward system for each time one of them gets a hit.

For a single, they've all agreed to pay $25 each. For a double, the price rises to $50. Triples are worth $75 and a home run is $100.

 

Unfortunately for Sanches, there is no reward for RBIs.

Yes, they have too much time on their hands.

It's hard to see where they get their time from, though

They seem to get a lot of use. Perhaps once every 5 games when JJ starts…

I was thinking the same thing.

Too much time on their hands? I wish. Although thankfully the last week has been a lot easier on them than the last few before.
