But the logic behind the Marlins keeping him is just as clear and more pressing. Namely, Bruce Sherman, the incoming owner, and Derek Jeter, the designated face, did not buy this team and promptly try to make themselves detested by the few people who still care about it.So far, we know that the monstrous thing in center field (no, not Christian Yelich) is likely to be torn down, and that Stanton is don’t-go-to-the-bathroom-during-his-half-inning entertainment. Beyond that, we know only that the Marlins draw when they win a lot and barely at all the rest of the time. They are clearly a distant third in a four-team race with the Dolphins and Heat for people’s hearts, and now that hating Jeffrey Loria’s living guts are off the table for the fans, there really is no there, there.So what’s the up-side of moving Stanton (and before we go any further, the Giants don’t have nearly enough assets to make that work, so calm the hell down) for the Marlins? Prospects, the dark hole that makes a three-year plan a six-year plan.And the down-side? Sherman may as well move the team for the level of fun he’ll get from it, and the only reason to buy a team looking at a $60 million loss is for the fun. Besides, onlky a very few owners have ever made the full turn from villain to hero – the first impression almost always lasts forever.So while Stanton may create immediate wallet relief for this aggressively average team (their current record of 57-61 is the 12th best in t...

Current plans call for a restaurant and 264 apartments, 24 percent of which will be classified as affordable units. The remainder will be luxury units.Brasser said Tuesday that construction will begin before 2017 is out, with completion in spring 2019.The Sherman project was one of 13 that received money from the Metropolitan Council in this round of grants, according to a news release. The council approved the $4 million package of grants at its July 26 meeting. Most of the money will go to cleaning up polluted sites to prepare them for development. Two sma... (Finance and Commerce)
