While it was reported earlier this week that if the Miami Marlins decided to sell this summer, they would consider trading any player on their roster, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com notes that Giancarlo Stanton, Mark Buehrle and Jose Reyes are not "being dangled."
Buster Olney of ESPN reported this week that Miami would discuss "every player on their roster, from Omar Infante to Giancarlo Stanton to Josh Johnson." Olney added that if the Marlins are going to trade Johnson, "now would be a good time to start that process."
Reporters have cautioned fans to take these rumors with a grain of salt since initial reports were released, but yesterday brought more Marlins’ rumor buzz with word of a possible Carl Crawford for Heath Bell and Hanley Ramirez swap.
These rumors have since been shot down, with Olney saying that the discussion died "immediately" after it was brought up.
