At 0-7, the Marlins already look like likely sellers.
They dangled Jesus Luzardo earlier. Their most serious talks were with the Orioles, who acquired Corbin Burnes instead. Luzardo isn’t a free agent until after 2026.
Edward Cabrera is another viable trade candidate.
The Padres have been considering Tommy Pham but want to stay under the $237 million first-tied luxury-tax threshold. That would leave them just $2M-$3M. They’d also prefer to have money for the trade deadline.

Kenley Jansen is another potential July trade piece. He expected to be on a contender with Boston. His old Dodgers team looks like a candidate for him.
Johnny Cueto hopes to keep pitching and is drawing interest.
The Mets need a roof. Let’s start a collection. A mere $800M is believed needed.
