MIAMI (CBSMiami) – The Miami Marlins have already dealt away the majority of their established players in Giancarlo Stanton, Dee Gordon and Marcell Ozuna.
Christian Yelich is the last man standing, and he isn’t happy about it.
According to ESPN’s Jerry Crasnick, the 26 year old outfielder has no interest in being part of the Marlins’ wholesale rebuild under new team CEO Derek Jeter.
“They have a plan,” agent Joe Longo said. “I respect that plan, but that plan shouldn’t include Christian at this point in his career. He’s in the middle of the best years of his career, and having him be part of a 100-loss season is not really where [we] want to see him going.
