It’s not just limited to the Miami Marlins, Major League Baseball or sports—across all industries, new decision-makers prefer to bring some familiarity to their organizations. For Derek Jeter, that could mean giving special consideration to players who once thrived as his teammates and rivals.
Changes to the Marlins roster are inevitable, regardless of who’s in charge. The club operated waaaaay above its means in 2017. That leaves Jeter no choice but to dangle their best players on the trade market to cleanse the payroll of onerous contracts.
That being said, they’ll still need to assemble a full roster at the MLB level.
