The Marlins know they will need to get creative to acquire two starting pitchers to join Adam Conley, Wei-Yin Chen and Tom Koehler in their rotation. But unless management has a drastic change of heart, the Marlins are disinclined to trade outfielder Giancarlo Stanton, who has had injury setbacks and carries an enormous contract.
Also, we’re told the Marlins do not want to trade outfielder Christian Yelich or catcher J.T. Realmuto. It would take a flabbergasting return, something the Marlins do not realistically envision, to consider trading Stanton, Yelich or Realmuto.
The Marlins ideally would prefer not to trade second baseman Dee Gordon or outfielder Marcell Ozuna but would at least listen on offers for both. Ozuna has greater value than his expected salary, so it would take high-end pitching for Miami to part with him.
And with Gordon having had an 80-game PED suspension in 2016 and beginning a five-year, $50 million extension, the Marlins know his trade value is likely less than his overall value.
The Marlins are expected to consider trade offers for shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria and jack-of-all trades Derek Dietrich in an attempt to acquire pitching. They value Dietrich and believe he’s starter-caliber, so Miami would want quality in return.
Marlins officials will meet this coming week to formulate strategy. But unless there’s a change of heart, they’re not expected to have a big enough budget to afford one of the most expensive free agent pitchers such as Jeremy Hellickson or Rich Hill, though they like Hellickson. They will need to find a cheaper option from a weak free agent class.

Cheap options...yay. Wish we had a decent farm system.

It's lookin bleak right now but if the cubs can win tonight there's a small glimmer of hope cuz they get schwarber back and tomlin and kluber would be on 3 days rest vs arrieta and hendricks.
I'm scared bauer might shut them down tonight lol.That 2nd inning was a disaster

Chicago really dropped the ball on hosting the World Series. Potentially biggest party ever blown. Wrigleyville legit kicked out the average joe fans who can't afford $200 dollar entry fee to A BAR. $500 to reserve(no food,drink included). Folks were watching the game through the windows and those jagoffs closed the curtains lol.

Good win for the Cubs. We're fine with clinching the title in front of our fans.

All I wanted was to win at least 2 games in Chicago and we did that. I expect Tomlin to have a hell of a game and our bats to come alive.
