J.T. Realmuto requested a trade from the Marlins. The Marlins don’t want the players dictating trades:
“We used the last couple of weeks continuing to lay the foundation for building a first-class, winning organization,” president of baseball operations Michael Hill said in a statement released after Realmuto’s request became public. “Should we feel like we need to make a trade involving any of our under-contract, controllable players, we will be the ones who initiate that conversation and always do what’s best for the organization.”
Players are pretty good at getting themselves traded. It’s pretty easy to become a clubhouse cancer. Complaining a lot usually gets one off the team. While the Marlins want to be in control of the situation, it’s tough to keep a player that doesn’t want to remain on the team.
