Free Agent J.D. Martinez and the Marlins have had recent discussions. Miami seems to prefer the rotating DH combo of Josh Bell & Jake Burger thus not a fit, at least for now. Martinez is seeking a 2 year deal per source.

Martinez, 36, is heading into his 14th MLB season.

He slashed .271/.321/.572 for the Los Angeles Dodgers on a one year, $10 million contract in 2023.
