According to the Sun Sentinel, which is either a Florida newspaper or some kind of monstrous new solar powered robot designed by Dr. Bolivar Trask, the Florida Marlins are considering relocating a 2011 series against the Seattle Mariners from their home in South Florida to Vancouver, British Columbia. Once they arrive in Canada, the Marlins will be stripped, disbanded, sold off individually, and attacked by bees.

The Marlins' new stadium (which will be called "Joe Robbie Stadium") opens in 2012, so until then Major League Baseball needs to take every chance it can get to show baseball how important the Marlins are by having them play in Puerto Rico, Canada, and wherever else. Those 14 people who showed up to Sun Life Stadium looking to enjoy baseball are going to be really disappointed.

Today's Dugout follows.
