The Miami Marlins acquired Ryne Stanek from the Tampa Bay Rays with Jesus Sanchez for Nick Anderson and Trevor Richards at the 2019 trade deadline. Considering who we gave up, and what we’ve received in return so far, we have to hope that Sanchez is a future stalwart.
Pre-deadline, Stanek was pretty good for the Rays. Sixty-one strikeouts in 55 2/3 innings, a 131 ERA+, a 3.40 ERA, a 1.150 WHIP and a 0.9 WAR seemed to indicate a possibility at closer for the just-then Sergio Romo-less Miami team.
