The Miami Marlins smartly held onto what they had at the non-tender deadline as all seven arbitration-eligible players were tendered a deal, per Marlins Communications.
The Miami Marlins likely feel like they are in a relatively good position heading into this winter, as they have plenty of momentum following a promising 2025 campaign and also have room to make moves and put together an improved roster.
The Miami Marlins improbably remained alive in the wild-card race into the season’s final week. While that was enabled largely by the New York Mets’ collapse, Miami finished just four games under .500 after a 100-loss season in 2024.

The Miami Marlins swung a trade with the Tampa Bay Rays for a right-handed pitcher and more notably, an infielder who could still have some upside in the tank.
