Just last week, the Miami Marlins were making a strong run at landing one of the two premier free agents of the 2016-2017 class. Just last week, the Marlins came up just short on acquiring either one of them.
Should the Marlins shift gears to offense, and look at picking up Edwin Encarnacion?
According to Jim Bowden, that’s shaping up as a no. The price is still too high, and it would involve giving up the same first round pick that would have been relinquished had they signed Kenley Jansen.
