"Here's a question for you, Miami Marlins fans: Just who will be the highest paid player by the Miami Marlins next season? Some of you will say Sandy Alcantara. Those of you too young to know better will say Kyle Schwarber or Bo Bichette! More realistic optimists will pick from Miami's brightest young stars, counting on a couple of big extensions this winter."
"To be honest, the contract was so bad, I think I had just assumed it would continue forever- a permanent punishment from the universe on Miami fans for crimes unknown. However, an insightful MLB Trade Rumors piece from Wednesday on the Sandy Alcantara market mentioned the nearing end of the Garcia contract while listing the largest remaining salary obligations on Miami's books."
Fans debate which Marlins player will earn the most next season, naming Sandy Alcantara, Kyle Schwarber, Bo Bichette, or young stars expected to receive extensions. A significant possibility exists that Avisail Garcia will top the payroll because a $5 million buyout remains on the books through this winter. That buyout completes Miami's financial obligation for a widely derided free agent signing. MLB Trade Rumors noted the approaching end of the Garcia contract while listing the largest remaining salary commitments. Removing legacy salaries would increase payroll flexibility and improve the club's ability to contend.
