"Yet when it comes to a move that will help Miami win more games in 2026? You could argue the team has actually gotten weaker since the curtain closed on the 2025 MLB season. Fortunately, it's still very early. That typical offseason shuffling? That wasn't a shot at how the Miami Marlins operate- at least not yet. Every MLB team is doing the same thing right now."
"And the Cincinnati Reds have just given the Marlins a golden opportunity to do so, thanks to some of their own offseason reshuffling. One team's trash can quickly become another team's treasure in MLB. The Reds have deeper pockets and likely higher ambitions for 2026, and are prepping to make a run at one of the bigger ticket free agents before filling out their roster."
"In Suter's case, he's a serviceable, veteran left-handed reliever that should come at an affordable price. That's really all that needs to be said for an MLB team that spent far too much of the end of 2026 turning to Josh Simpson when they needed a lefty option out of the bullpen. The Reds demurred picking up his $3 million option after seeing him produce a career worst 4.52 ERA in his 1"
Offseason activity around the Miami Marlins has been quiet for the major-league roster, with front-office and fringe 40-man roster shuffling occurring. The club may enter 2026 with fewer roster answers after the 2025 season, though the calendar remains early and transaction opportunities persist. President of Baseball Operations Peter Bendix appears to be preparing for potential moves. Cincinnati's roster decisions have created affordable options for payroll-constrained teams. The Reds are prioritizing a top free agent and declined some options, opening chances for Miami to acquire veteran help. Brent Suter offers a left-handed relief arm and Austin Hays presents outfield depth potential.
