Obviously I could be wrong, but I just don't see AP hitting the night-clubs and closing the bars with LeBron and the boys.
Besides, baseball's a lot different animal than most other sports when it comes to lifestyle decisions.
During the baseball season, you really don't have the energy to go out there and party all the time, not if you value your craft. You spend a hell of a lot of time on the road and when you're home you try to spend some time with your family (presuming you have one. Albert is, by all accounts, a family man). Baseball's a hell of a grind; you play every day and if you don't want to go out there with dead legs, you don't go hitting the club after your 10:30p finish.
During the offseason, you can play in St. Louis and travel to Miami for the winter if need be.
I get it for NBA players; living in Miami for a winter sport when you're going to spend 2/3 of your time in your home city is a hell of a deal. But there's a reason that hasn't extended to baseball players.
If he moves to the Marlins; it's purely for the money. It's his choice to make, but don't make it more than it is.

There's more to Florida than clubs.
