There is speculation in Florida that they may need to move some players in their arbitration years to keep salary down, one of those players rumored to be available is Jeremy Hermida.Hermida is entering his second year of arbitration and made 2.25M last year. The former 2002 first round pick, hasn't lived up to expectation and some believe he needs a change of scenery. The 25 y/o left handed hitting outfielder is a lifetime .265 hitter with a .425 Slg. pct. and a .344 OBP. He's been mainly a RF but has enough experience to be a serviceable serve left fielder. Some teams believed to be interested in Hermida are the Mariners, Rays, Mets and Blue Jays. The Cubs also could have interest. source MLB blogs- The Fish Pond
