MLB Trade Rumors sports

Key Points:

  • The Miami Marlins traded left-handed starter Ryan Weathers to the New York Yankees for four prospects: outfielders Dillon Lewis and Brendan Jones, and infielders Dylan Jasso and Juan Matheus, with no immediate roster moves needed for New York.
  • This trade follows Miami’s recent deal sending Edward Cabrera to the Cubs, signaling the Marlins’ strategy to trade controllable but injury-prone starters in favor of accumulating position player prospects.
  • Weathers, 26, has shown mid-rotation potential but has struggled with injuries over the past two seasons, limiting him to 24 starts and 125 innings; he is expected to compete for a rotation spot in New York due to injuries to key Yankees pitchers.
