Cabrera $150 million, Hanley $200?

It's not Miguel Cabrera's new $150+ million (last reported at $152 million) deal that has me up in arms. No, if anything, Marlins fans who have followed Miggy's illustrious career might claim he's worth even more than that. After all, it's easy to speculate on how much a former player deserves.

What scares me is this piece from Buster Olney's blog, which highlights Hanley Ramirez as the next $200 million dollar player (interesting how praiseworthy so many columnists are, yet Hanley was somehow left off last year's All-star team...disgraceful). Are those kinds of funds going to come from the coffers of the cost-conscious Marlins?

Even with a new stadium deal in place, Hanley's price may prove too steep. Loria may loosen his wallet, but he's not about to rip it apart. My advice to Marlins fans; enjoy Hanley while you can.
