Honorable mentions: 

Brady Aiken, Aaron Nola, and Nick Gordon:

These three names are ones that Marlins fans should keep an eye on as well. Aiken seems like he is more than likely going number 1 overall to the Astros. If the Astros don’t select Aiken, it would make the Marlins choice even more interesting. At this point, my preference would be Aiken over anyone if he were to fall to number 2.

Both Nola and Gordon are longshots for the Marlins to pick, but they are players I cannot rule out, as the Marlins may try to cut a deal with a prospect to save some cash for further down the draft. If the Marlins were to reach for either of these two here, all hell would likely break loose from the media on the Marlins front office and owner Jeffery Loria.
