It's the calm before the storm with just three days left until the MLB trade deadline. AJ Ramos, Kevin Barral and Ely Sussman discuss the latest rumors pertaining to Miami Marlins players, why the Fish have a lot of leverage in negotiations and what it's likely to be in the clubhouse during this chaotic stage of the season. They also touch on two of Miami's untouchable assets, Sandy Alcantara and Eury Pérez, finding their groove at the same time.

You can find Fish Unfiltered and Fish On First LIVE on the Fish On First YouTube channel, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever else you get your pods.

Kevin set the over/under at 3.5 trades for the Marlins between now and Monday night. For context, the club made eight deadline deals in 2024, but only two in 2025.
