The latest on the Marlins, who have already shipped Dan Haren to the Cubs…
- About eight teams are interested in Capps, tweets MLB.com’s Joe Frisaro.
- At least a dozen teams have checked in on Capps, tweets Yahoo’s Jeff Passan, and the reliever could very well move.Ā The Marlins are also getting calls on reliever Sam Dyson, according to Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald.
Earlier Updates
- Jon Heyman of CBS Sports says the Marlins are looking for controllable young pitching, with names such as Tyson Ross of the Padres, Carlos Carrasco of the Indians, and Nate Karns of the Rays in play.
- A number of teams are calling on recently-demoted outfielder Marcell Ozuna, tweets Frisaro.Ā The Marlins have no urgency to move the 24-year-old, who hit 23 home runs last year.
- The Marlins are shopping for starting pitching today, tweets MLB.com’s Joe Frisaro, in what he expects to be a busy day for the club.Ā Frisaro notes that Dan Haren is drawing interest from several teams.Ā Also, reliever Carter Capps was linked to the Yankees earlier.
- Earlier this week, the Marlins sent impending free agent Mat Latos to the Dodgers in a 13-player deal, but the move seemed mostly about salary relief for Miami.Ā The assumption is the Fish are seeking young, controllable starting pitching, since both Latos and Haren will be eligible for free agency after the season.

Yeah, because they really need salary relief…$69 mil to start the season, had over $101 mil 3 years ago.

How about Julio Teheran for Isael Soto and Jarlin Garcia

How about Julio Teheran, Joey Terdoslavich, Jonny Gomes and Chris Johnson for Christian Yellich and Jarlin Garcia.

No one wants Gomes and Johnson.

Have to take them to get Teheran’s great contract of 6 years for $32,4, sorry.

Would take a lot more talent to move Yelich.
Los Calcetines Rojos
I’m on your side here. Yelich would take more than that and I doubt the marlins want johnson and gomes on their team

Teheran would be Miami’s best Colombian import since cocaine.

Our bullpen has been garbage for 8 years. Let’s trade 1 of our only 2 relievers and a guy we have 5 years of control over…

Carlos Gonzalez to Miami, Ozuna + to Cleveland and Carlos Carrasco to Colorado. Basic framework

I wonder what the asking price is for Haren and Capps. The Marlins appear to be eager unload and are running out of time. The price for Haren could be getting rather affordable as the deadline approaches. Would love to see the Pirates make a move for solidity their rotation.

Think the Bucs can match up with the Twins on Ricky Nolasco?
batman
Id pass. Id rather have the Pirates call up Liz to start than to trade for Ricky

I would love for the braves to snag Marcell up kid could be a great outfielder. and he adds some pop to the ATL offense
Los Calcetines Rojos
I could see a three-way trade between the sox and marlins with some of their pitching going for ozuna. I could see Chris Beck, Thad Lowry, and Myles Jaye being three guys who have 3-5 potential with beck being the one that could crack as a no.2 as a ceiling. Maybe a low level guy who hasn’t lived up to marlins expectations going to the sox.

Braves could do Julio Teheran, Jonny Gomes and Chris Johnson for Henderson Alverez and Jarlin Garcia.

They gave uo on Andrew Heaney way to early… Although as an Angels fan I am glad they did.

I sincerely hope the Angels are looking hard at Carter Capps. We could use a shut down arm like his in the back of the bullpen. Sick and tired of seeing the cookies Fernando Salas is offering hitters in late innings.
