Prospects Marlins traded away

[Chad Turner]

Here is a list of Marlins prospects we traded and their highest ranking for their new team (and who we got)

3 Eder (Burger)

5 Hurt (Floro)

6 Vargas (Robertson)

7 Suarez (Edwards, Chargois)

7 Watson (Bell)

10 Johnson (Edwards, Chargois)

13 Nicolas (Stallings)

14 Nuñez (Rule 5)

15 Chourio (Arraez)

18 Salas (Arraez)

19 Hernandez (Robertson)

20 Misner (Wendle)

20 Lindsey (Brujan)

30 Reynolds (Weathers)

32 Lara (Brujan)

34 Allen (Davis)

Now that Edwards has graduated, the only real prospect we have via trade is Amaya.  That's 16 out and 1 in.  This is the real reason our farm stinks.

Thanks for reminding me we gave up Kameron Misner for how awful Joey Wendle was for us. He kinda stalled out last year for the Rays, but he has very loud tools. I'd honestly prefer him over Peyton Burdick. They're both very flawed players with huge swing-and-miss concerns, but I like Misner's run speed and range better than Burdick's. If he were to hit for contact with more consistency, I'd fear he'd become the next great hitter for the Rays.

Another name we should keep an eye on is Kyle Nicolas. He has impressive strikeout stuff and was called up late in 2023, although in short sample size, he got battered around.

Chris Paddack went out the door for the awful Fernando Rodney. And Michael King went to Yankees for Caleb Smith and Cooper.

Yes, there were a ton of major leaguers we traded away.  I was just focusing on prospects that are still currently ranked as minors prospects.

To their credit, Caleb Smith and Garrett Cooper weren't bad when they played with us. Cooper himself earned an All-Star nod (which spoke to how good his first half of 2022 was), and Caleb Smith was used in a trade to get Starling Marte. So clearly, they had some value. It's just that they didn't push the needle as much as we would have hoped.
