With the Yankees in town and Opening Day just around the corner, there's much to read in New York this morning on the Marlins and their new ballpark.

-- Kevin Kernan of the New York Post writes that the "ballpark is spectacular and has that South Beach splash."

In reference to actual season ticket holders. Lies are a way of life with this ownership group.
