Miami Marlins Urged To Ask For This In Any Trade Discussions

At this point, it would be shocking if the Miami Marlins didn't trade away multiple pieces at the trade deadline at the end of July.

Even though the organization has dealt away many of its valued players over the past year, they still have Sandy Alcantara and Jesus Sanchez, who could fetch a decent return.

MLB.com's Christina De Nicola recently discussed what the Marlins should be looking for at the deadline, and she noted Miami should be seeking "a game-changing bat" in any trade discussions.

"Clubs inquiring about Miami's pitchers, in particular Sandy Alcantara, must dish out a substantial package in return. The Marlins will likely request at least one difference maker, preferably at shortstop. Entering Sunday, the Marlins were tied for the fifth-fewest homers and had scored the eighth-fewest runs in the Majors. The system lacks an MLB-ready shortstop, with prospect Maximo Acosta struggling at Triple-A," wrote Nicola.
