One of the burning questions entering the 2026 season is what the Miami Marlins’ starting rotation will look like. Two of their top pitchers, Sandy Alcantara and Edward Cabrera, have been mentioned as potential trade candidates this offseason.
If the Marlins were to consider moving either of them, they could get a return that would be worth it. If they don’t, then they are set up to have one of the better rotations not only in the division, but in baseball as a whole.
Joel Reuter of Bleacher Report predicted the starting rotations for each team for next March on Opening Day, and his prediction for Miami was a fascinating one. In fact, it is one that you could make a case for running back with the arms the Marlins have and seeing how things go early in the season.
