Marlins hoping Javier Vazquez does not depart

Found November 01, 2011 on Rant Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Javier Vazquez
TEAMS: Miami Marlins

Braves_vs_marlins_50b2
With the quarrels of retirement surrounding pitcher Javier Vazquez, the Marlins are hoping that the 35-year old right-hander does not call it quits just yet. Probably just in-case the Marlins do not bring in anyone this offseason. Vazquez started off slow and I remember giving him garbage for his poor play back in the beginning of the 2011 season. However, he finished great down the stretch going 5-0 with a 0.71 ERA. The Palm Beach Post think that a one-year, $10 million deal could sway Vazquez away from retirement.

As further evidence of the Marlins’ improved defense in 2011, two of their infielders are finalists for a Rawlings Gold Glove award. Neither first baseman Gaby Sanchez not second baseman Omar Infante is a favorite, but being included among the top three at their position in their circuit is a worthy accomplishment nonetheless. A vote of league managers and coaches determine...
