You probably guessed this already, but if the Miami Marlins are going to make moves this offseason that involve trades for hitters, it will involve prospects. That means the notion of keeping the organization’s top pitchers intact may be a fading thought.
The Marlins were 25th in the Majors last season with a .241 team batting average and hit just 146 home runs, which was last in the league. While the front office has vowed to find the right fit for the Major League roster, making sure the team does not lose part of its future in the process is something Derek Jeter and Michael Hill have talked about this offseason.
