Marlins players who should be untouchable at the 2020 MLB trade deadline

Buyers? Sellers? What we’ve quickly learned is this new Marlins administration rarely “picks a lane” in the traditional sense. That will be especially true as Monday’s MLB trade deadline approaches with the Fish still on pace for a postseason berth at 14-12.

All of the reinforcements added to the 40-man roster following the infamous COVID-19 outbreak have created a logjam now that those infected by the virus are returning or on the verge of doing so. Some familiar faces need to go, or at the very least, they’ll be designated for assignment (allowing other teams the opportunity to claim them).
