Veteran third baseman Martin Prado said he isn’t the kind who would ever demand a trade, as some current and former Marlins teammates have done.
“I’m glad I’m in the big leagues,” Prado said. “I’m thankful to be where I’m at. I wouldn’t do that.”
But Prado said he was a bit taken aback that at least three Marlins teammates did exactly that over the winter, telling the Marlins they wished to be gone and not part of a rebuild.
Two, Giancarlo Stanton and Christian Yelich, got their wish and were dealt, with Stanton going to the Yankees and Yelich landing with the Brewers.
