Commissioners divvy up spending of Marlins Stadium fundsWritten by Jesse Scheckner on March 23, 2021AdvertisementMiami-Dade commissioners will evenly split among their districts settlement funds the county got last month from a sale of the Miami Marlins, with funds to go toward covid relief, law enforcement and other local costs. Each of the 13 commissioners will get $366,385 for pandemic-related costs, police, prisons and capital projects – construction, property purchases, building improvements, equipment and furniture – deemed to have public benefit. Commissioners last week approved the plan by Kionne McGhee, who on Feb. 17 suggested they divvy up the county’s cut of $5.5 million former Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria agreed to pay to settle a dispute over profits from the $1.2 billion team sale in 2017. Even so, it would be safer to save the county’s Marlins money to plug potential budget holes, Mr. Martinez said. The Marlins agreed to contribute about $155 million without having to share revenue from ticket sales, naming rights, advertising and concessions.

Commissioners look to divvy up Miami Marlins sale payoutWritten by Jesse Scheckner on March 9, 2021AdvertisementA settlement coming to Miami-Dade from the sale of the Miami Marlins may never make it into the county general fund as commissioners consider circumventing standard budget procedures to help their districts directly. The plan runs counter to Mayor Daniella Levine Cava’s recommendation last month to put the money into the general fund to offset property tax shortages. Mr. McGhee’s proposal responds to dissatisfactions about how the last and current county administrations handled covid relief and Cares Act distribution. Should it go to the general fund? By taking the unallocated funds before they reach the administration and are absorbed into the general budget, he said, commissioners will eliminate future bureaucratic red tape and can help communities now.

Support UsIf any Major League Baseball fanbase historically has a valid built-in excuse to drink heavily (and often), it's the Miami Marlins'. But as it turns out, a new study reveals Marlins fans haven't truly taken advantage of their get-out-of-sober cards as often as one may think. In addition to the overall averages, Marlins fans were found to be the 17th-most-likely fanbase to down a few beers before the games begin. Now that we've covered what an average day at the ballpark means for most baseball fans, let's get to what Marlins fans are most familiar with: numbing the pain. Data showed that 32 percent of Marlins fans reported drinking more when the team is tanking — first among MLB fanbases.

Major League Baseball Youth Academy for Miami strikes out againWritten by Marilyn Bowden on February 9, 2021AdvertisementThe arrival of Covid-19 shortly after the beginning of Spring Training last year further postponed the possibility of proceeding with a long-awaited permanent Major League Baseball Urban Youth Academy in South Florida. A location for an academy was chosen in Hialeah in 2007, and a January 2009 memorandum of understanding with Major League Baseball said an academy would rise with the league financing up to $3.2 million of its cost. Major League Baseball opened the first of the academies in Compton, CA, in 2000. The Marlins Youth Academy virtual summer camp was inaugurated. Meanwhile, the Marlins organization joined efforts across the sport to step up to the plate with ramped up community service.

City looks at settling suit on Miami Marlins sale $1 billion profitWritten by Susan Danseyar on January 26, 2021AdvertisementMiami commissioners will consider settling a lawsuit with the Miami Marlins over a dispute concerning, among other things, the increase in the baseball team’s value when it was sold. After the sale, former owner Jeffrey Loria sent a letter and accountants’ report claiming he suffered a loss so the county/city equity payment was zero. County attorneys have described those calculations as “fuzzy math.”Mr. Loria bought the Marlins in 2002 for $158 million. Some in Miami have long criticized the stadium deal, funded through the sale of county and city bonds, as a public giveaway to private interests that ultimately left taxpayers on the hook for $3 billion. The City Attorney’s office recommends settling the suit for the suggested terms.

The Miami Dolphins will use two first-round picks on wide receivers. It only took about a week's worth of games to see the Miami Heat needs a jolt of energy.

Smith, who will work at the Red Sox's player development facility in Fort Meyers, Florida, says she hopes her barrier-breaking role as the first Black female coach in professional baseball history will "inspire other women who are interested in this game."

Through two games of the 2020 NBA Finals, it did not look great for your Miami Heat. When Jimmy Butler stepped in, LeBron told him the Miami Heat were in a bit of trouble in the series.

There are Miami Marlins fans who are seniors in high school who had never seen their favorite baseball team make the playoffs.

It had been rumored that the Miami Marlins were leaning toward an outside-the-box hire in their search for a new general manager. #JuntosMiami pic.twitter.com/UrYESbjTHe — Miami Marlins (@Marlins) November 13, 2020Ng doesn't exactly come to Miami as a rookie. “I entered Major League Baseball as an intern and, after decades of determination, it is the honor of my career to lead the Miami Marlins as their next General Manager,” Ng said.
