Jose Reyes will be heading to South Beach. The All-Star shortstop has just signed with the Miami Marlins in a deal worth $106 Million over six years. He will be joining the newly signed Heath Bell, formally of the San Diego Padres, who just completed the negotiations on his 3 year, $27 million contract with the Marlins yesterday.
Reyes is this year’s NL Batting Champ in an injury-plagued season, finishing on the last day of the season with a hit to bring him to a .337 average. The addition of Reyes to the Marlins line-up should push Hanley Ramirez from the shortstop position to third base.
I think it is going to take me a while to get used to the fact that they are now the Miami Marlins, and in different uniforms. It will make it REALLY interesting if they land Pujols or Fielder!
