The Miami Marlins have already made two notable moves leading up to the July 30th MLB Trade Deadline flipping outfielder Starling Marte and closer Yimi Garcia. Could there be more on the way?
Obviously the Marlins will be notable sellers as they are likely out of postseason contention, but could they be buyers as well?
