Marlins fourth most expensive player is not human

Michael Katz | USATODAY

The 2013 Miami Marlins, summed up in one single fact.

The Marlins home run sculpture cost an estimated $2.5M to build. 22 of the 25 players on the Marlins roster make less than that.

Yes, the Marlins home run statue costs more than 88 percent of the club's roster -- or about as much as five (!) Giancarlo Stantons.

But can any of the Marlins do this?

Jeffrey Loria and I didn't think so.

Thanks to SNY for calling this to our attention, and to the Marlins for existing.
