Just minutes after the Miami Marlins completed their 2018 FanFest at Marlins Park, SiriusXM’s Craig Mish reported that catcher J.T. Realmuto is a trade target of the reigning World Series champions:
Source : Houston Astros have engaged in trade discussions for JT Realmuto. OF Kyle Tucker is the ask by Miami. Astros are considering. 50% chance Realmuto is dealt before opening day.

Entering his age-27 season, Realmuto would represent an improvement over the Houston Astros’ current catching options.
