The big question surrounding the Miami Marlins this offseason is whether or not they will spend a lot of money. They spent some money and have already signed Christopher Morel.

That is not a big move that’s going to move the needle a lot in 2026, and there needs to be more moves. As far as some of the other free agents go, it is very unlikely that the Marlins are going to be in on the likes of Framber Valdez, Kyle Tucker, or Cody Bellinger. More than likely, any sizable move from Peter Bendix and the front office might be done through a trade.

Jim Bowden of The Athletic (subscription required) matched up some of the bigger remaining free agents with what he feels would be the best fit for them. Surprisingly, he had the Marlins as a potential landing spot for a corner infielder, Munetaka Murakami.
