Marlins insist on flipping lid
Say this much for the Florida Marlins, they haven't let their dwindling stadium options stop them from leveling new demands. "We're not considering a facility without a roof,'' team president David Samson told the Miami Herald. ''It should come as no surprise to anyone we've ever met with. For the Marlins to stay in South Florida, they need to play in a roofed facility.'' Samson continues to maintain that the team can build a retractable-roofed facility for $325 million, which is pretty friggin' unlikely.
