What a crazy week it has been. Halloween was on Monday. MLB free agency got underway on Thursday. I am here to recap everything for you guys today. This week on MarlinManiac:
- Michael Jong announced he was leaving the site to join Fishstripes. He had been on MarlinManiac for the past two years and built the site to where it is today.
- As a result of Michael’s departure, I became the Editor of the site. On Tuesday, I laid out what the New MarlinManiac will look like. If you have not already, please follow the new official MarlinManiac twitter account: @ek2MarlinManiac.
- We took a look at Tim Dierke’s Free Agency predictions and analyzed the potential moves for the Marlins.
- James C. Etzbach Jr. gave us a potential look at what the new Marlins uniforms may look like. Pretty colorful stuff there.
- I also looked into a possible alternative free agent starting pitching target for the Marlins, Paul Maholm.
- If you are interested in writing for MarlinManiac, your chance is here.
- I started a new series that I will do every Wednesday and Friday for the remainder of the off-season. That is an off-season update on moves and rumors for the Fish.
- Last but not least, earlier today I looked at if the Marlins adding Pujols alone make them playoff contenders.
Thank you all for a wonderful first week on MarlinManiac and it’s new regime. Hopefully we can build off of this week and continue to have the great success that Michael left off with.

Ever since I can remember, I have loved the game of baseball. I literally breathe, eat, and sleep baseball. Have been a huge Marlins fan since the day I watched my first game in 1999. When I combined my passion for writing with my passion for baseball and the Marlins, I found a role as the Editor of the Marlin Maniac. Hope is to one day become a national baseball journalist. Currently resides in Birmingham, Alabama, but was born and raised in South Florida.
