Perhaps it has already happened, perhaps there is work to be done. Yet any chance of success for small market Miami rests on the team not needing to overpay players to come here.
For years now, the narrative has been the same when it comes to the Miami Marlins and MLB free agents.
No, not the narrative where the Marlins can't afford to pay for the biggest names on the market. What I'm talking about here is the more troubling narrative where Miami must overpay players- any players- to proverbially "bring their talents" to South Florida in the first place.
