Can do Cantu…

Jorge Cantu just signed an agreement to play for the Marlins next season that will start at $500K and could pile on an extra 100K in incentives.

This is good news for the Marlins since they now have a 26 year old 2b/3b who has some promise if a team is willing to take a chance. Cantu, in 2005, had 28 home runs and 117 RBI. If he could replicate those numbers, he would greatly help the Marlins offense replace the departing Miguel Cabrera.

About John Ricard

"Jonnylons" has been a life-long Marlins fan - which isn't hard since they've only been around in since '93 and he's been around a bit longer. He founded MarlinsNation.com in order to provide a voice to Marlins fans on the internet which he started when he was up in Tallahassee at Florida State and was stranded with no Marlins games on TV up in that market.
