The Miami Marlins have already started beefing up their roster with low-risk, high-upside free agents. They signed Jacob Turner to a minor league contract last week. His contract includes an invitation to spring training.
Miami figures to make several more similar signings. As the Marlins head towards a 2018 season where many expect them to lose as many as 100-games, saving money is the name of the game. They’re on the prowl for low-cost, MLB quality options who are looking to rebound.
After trading Anibal Sanchez to the Detroit Tigers in 2012, the righty is available on the free agent market this year.
