The Marlins are not necessarily done trading their little remaining low-minors talent to other teams for help for 2016 and (hopefully) beyond.
The Miami Marlins acquired Fernando Rodney from the San Diego Padres in exchange for minor league pitching prospect Chris Paddack, a player who likely would have been highly rated amid the team’s dismal farm system had he reached the end of the season with Miami. Paddack had a tremendous start to his 2016 campaign and has shown surprising polish for an upside high schooler out of the eighth round. Miami quickly shuttled him away at (so far) his highest value to get half a season of a cheap reliever who has been an inconsistent performer in the past.
