"While much of the focus regarding the Marlins this offseason has been on their intent to spend more aggressively (relatively speaking) and bolster the lineup, the Fish still have a pair of prominent trade candidates in the rotation. Right-handers Edward Cabrera and Sandy Alcantara are on wishlists for pitching-hungry clubs around the league, though neither is a lock to be moved."
"A lat strain, flexor strain and finger strain have combined to limit the former No. 7 overall draft pick to just 24 starts dating back to Opening Day 2024. Weathers has totaled 125 innings in that time and notched a 3.74 ERA with a 22% strikeout rate and 6.8% walk rate. That league-average strikeout rate is backed by a roughly average 11.7% swinging-strike rate. Weathers has sat 96.2 mph on his heater since '24."
Sandy Alcantara is expected to be with the Marlins come Opening Day, while Edward Cabrera is the likelier of the two rotation pieces to be moved. Miami is not actively shopping either established starter, but inquiries are expected to rise at the Winter Meetings. Lefty Ryan Weathers is a potential trade candidate after injuries limited him to 24 starts since Opening Day 2024. Weathers has shown effectiveness when healthy, totaling 125 innings with a 3.74 ERA, a 22% strikeout rate, a 6.8% walk rate and a 96.2 mph heater.
