The Miami Marlins would normally be ecstatic with the type of offseason Giancarlo Stanton is having. He won a Silver Slugger award. He won a Players Choice award. But if he wins an MVP award, it’ll be a nightmare for the Miami Marlins front office.
This offseason is inverse logic at it’s finest. Because of his massive contract, the Marlins want to trade Stanton and return a number of prospects. But the more awards he wins, the more they’ll want to get for him.
The only thing that isn’t changing is the imposing dollar amount on his contract.
