Overall Grade: D
Miami is in a poor state, both at the MLB level and down on the farm. Their top starting pitching prospects could be game changers, but what the organization really needs is more hitting. Is another transformative challenge trade like we saw when the former front office traded Zac Gallen for Jazz Chisholm in store?
