Jeffrey Loria revealed in an interview with ESPN.com posted Thursday that the Marlins are having a statue of deceased former ace Jose Fernandez made that they plan to place outside Marlins Park in the near future.
"We're having a big sculpture of Jose made for the plaza or maybe in front of the stadium," Loria told ESPN.com’s Jerry Crasnick. "William Behrends is doing it. He did the Willie McCovey and Willie Mays sculptures out in San Francisco. I went through hundreds and hundreds of photographs with the sculptor and gestures of Jose's face to try and make it perfect.
