The Fish Bites Podcast Episode 1: Marlins trade rumors, Gordon situation, prospect talk

Hello baseball fans, and welcome to the very first edition of FishStripes’ Fish Bites Podcast, where we explore the latest Marlins news and rumors.

Miami has expressed interest in upgrading its starting rotation and has been connected to Jeremy Hellickson, Matt Moore, Jake Odorizzi, Ervin Santana, Sonny Gray, Chris Archer and Andrew Cashner.

Scott, Thomas Bennett and John Butterworth discuss which available starting pitcher would have the most significant effect on the Marlins’ rotation. The guys explore the market for starting pitching and wonder if there is an “exciting” name for the Marlins to pursue.

Is there a prospect the Marlins should or shouldn’t move?

MLB Daily Dish’s Chris Cotillo joins the show to discuss the latest Marlins trade rumors, the Chris Sale incident and expected trades within the National League East.
