Also someone will be DFA when the Ozuna trade is announced

[fish16]

Wonder when straily is gonna go and what his value is. id like to see us add some hitting prospects to the system.

[Erick]

Nicolino is out of options so he either on the team or gone.

I hope he stays and pitches in the Yankees series. Should be a fun matchup.

Ya Alcantara and Gallen are a year away but both nice arms. Gallen is Woody Williams type pitcher-not big but pounds the zone

[Ralph]

Yea I might like Gallen more than Hudson.

[tjfla]

Also Daniel Castano will be in High A or Low A

[fish16]

Yea I might like Gallen more than Hudson.

similar type player, but it seems like Gallen strikes more guys out. Plus he moved through their system fast as hell in his first year after being drafted. I dont think it's out of the question to see him in the rotation at some point this year. I was hoping for flaherty, but this trade has the potential to be good, especially given that Ozuna is leaving in 2 years anyways.

It wasn't that great a return pitching wise for what St Louis has. However the FO might see something in Castano. He is the type they have been trying to get for 4 years now-big (6'4 230) lefty who eats innings. Justin Jacome/Brett Lilek type

Sierra was the surprise tho. Might hit 5-10 HR a year but everything else is +++. Gold Glove CF who will bat leadoff and could lead league in SB

Baseball Prospectus had

Sierra #3
Alcantara #5
Gallen Top 15

By way looks like Oakland is getting Piscotty for Yairo Munoz and Max Schrock

Ya, im not crazy about the deal solely because i thought they could do better, but Alcantara obviously has electric stuff and Sierra has really nice potential. I just dont like how little of a sure thing they are as the top 2 guys in the deal. I could see them both being all stars or both being nothing guys. Sierra is a glove first leadoff guy for 10+ years ideally.

What's funny is despite the moves, Miami still has a somewhat respectable lineup.

1. Realmuto
2. Prado
3. Yelich
4. Bour
5. Castro
6. Dietrich
7. Riddle
8. Anderson
9. P

I'm sure more moves will be made, but I was thinking last night about how that's really not awful as it stands today.

Now, the pitching will be a nightmare, but we already knew that.

i dont think the pitching is as bad as we think, we just dont have anything in the way of top of the rotation talent. We have a ton of back end of the rotation guys, but i think 5 of them will pan out and not be as bad as certain guys we've trotted out there in recent years.

Sierra will make the team next year I bet.

The pitching is absolutely awful.

The #Marlins are taking lots of calls on OF Christian Yelich but he & C J.T. Realmuto likely to stay put in MIami barring top-shelf offer. Reasonable $ + club control. "Gotta draw the line somewhere," says 1 Marlins person.

Guess we will find out how true this is...I also wouldn't mind seeing Castro kept until the deadline at least. Too many 2B out there now to get much a return.

Where do we expect Prado to be playing in this lineup? Dietrich for that matter?
