Sandy Alcantara’s name often comes up as a trade candidate for the New York Mets and any other team with payroll space and need in the rotation. As Miami Marlins lore goes, they’re always willing to sell you their best players. Whether it’s fresh off a World Series or not, they’ve been a feeder organization for many of the more consistent high spenders.
Alcantara is coming off of a strange year back from Tommy John surgery. He was terrible to start and much better in the final two months. His contract calls for $17.3 million this coming year with a team option of $21 million for 2027.
