Marlins Don’t Intend To Trade Hanley Ramirez

By Luke Adams 2 | December 5, 2011 at 4:20pm CDT

With Jose Reyes in the fold, it appears Hanley Ramirez won't be playing shortstop for the Marlins next season. However, that doesn't mean the club plans to trade him. Owner Jeffrey Loria and president of baseball operations Larry Beinfest both suggested Ramirez would be fine with changing positions and will remain a Marlin.

Danny Knobler of CBS Sports says Loria views Ramirez as "part of the plan, part of the core." The Marlins owner said the team intends to "make everything comfortable" for the 27-year-old. Meanwhile, Beinfest conveyed a similar sentiment, as Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports writes:

“If something like that happened," said Beinfest, referring to the not-yet-official Reyes signing, "[Ramirez] would change positions. If and when we acquire a shortstop, we’ll address that. Hanley wants to win. We’d like to provide the pieces around him to help him win.”

      Hanley is never happy unless he has a Mermaid in each arm.

    His ego exploded when Reyes was signed.

    Just trade him. He’s a bunch of money and get a better 2 or 4 hitter

        May not get a better hitter but you will get a better presence. Don’t think Hanley will be happy playing the hot corner and will turn into a clubhouse cancer.

          you can’t forecast someones reception of something..

          Obviously before the marlins signed someone to 100 million dollar contract,  they contacted Han Ram.

          This is a non story I think.  He still gets to play everyday, and now he has an easier and less demanding position.. is that not win win?

            “Obviously before the marlins signed someone to 100 million dollar contract,  they contacted Han Ram.”

            Is that why when they asked him for a comment after the news that Reyes had signed he said , “No comment” . Hanley must have been just so over joyed that he was speechless .

              Your response is incorrect. Hanley has not commented on the signing one way or another. His agent said “No comment.” Before the signing Hanley was quoted as saying he welcomed the signing of Reyes because he wanted to win.

              Your statement is incorrect. Hanley has not as of yet commented on the signing. His agent said “No comment.” Before the Reyes signing, Hanley was quoted as saying he was in favor of the signing because he wanted to win.

              So not talking to the media = unhappy about position change..

              absolutely no flaws in your theory?

    I do not care what they are saying now. If he wants out, they will give it to him. He already showed he would quit if he doesnt want to play. Maybe they would trade him to mets in deal for wright, parnell, and a prospect. Another poss place to trade him to would be the red sox.

      “Decent” is not the right word there, more like “murderers row”.

        Fierce, but not quite murderer’s row.  There isn’t a combo in there that is as feared of hitters as Ruth and Gehrig were in their era, let alone the rest of the lineup.  Plus, there’s still a big if on Pujols since he hasn’t even signed.

      Obviously not comparing the two by any means – but the lineup looks pretty damn good even with Gaby Sanchez in there at first base.

         Sign Pujols.  Trade Gaby Sanchez to Tampa for Alex Cobb.  Johnson, Sanchez, Cobb, Nolasco.  Not horrible…

          Johnson, Buehrle/Wilson, Nolasco, Sanchez, possibly Cobb.

          That’s a good rotation.

            Its the 3rd best rotation in the division. goes to 4th if JJ doesn’t have a good year/stays healthy

    I think Reyes would play a better 3B than Ramirez, but then again the past few years have been garbage for the Marlins at 3B, so either Ramirez or Reyes at that position will be a big improvement.

    Hanley is a hard player to figure. Ozzie should be able to get him to play to his potential, and hopefully he will play hard all the time.

      Yes, because Ozzie gets the best out of the players he has. Fantastic seasons from Rios, Dunn, etc., he’s a true motivator.

      yeah, you like it, don’t think the marlins would. People make too much of hanley being a “clubhouse cancer”. There not just going to give up on someone who before last year was a perrenial mvp contender from the SS position
