Two teams candidates to reach the World Series such as the Los Angeles Dodgers and the New York Yankees will spare no expense or time in strengthening their roster. Both teams will sign new players for the summer, but what happens when their sights are set on the same pitcher?
The Miami Marlins are willing to trade their 2022 National League Cy Young Award winner Sandy Alcantara to the highest bidder. However, former Marlins president David Samson believes that Alcantara’s form is not good enough for suitors to splurge on him.
Yankees OF Cody Bellinger always looks like he’s high and could make history this 4/20
What’s going on with Sandy Alcantara that David Samson demotivates Dodgers and Yankees?
Braves vs. Phillies Game 1 Highlights
For the Dominican pitcher, it has been a difficult season after missing last year with an elbow injury. Since his Tommy John surgery, he has not been the same, and it is evident. Despite this, the 29-year-old has been the subject of much trade talk, with reports that both the Yankees and Dodgers are interested in him. But Samson was concise in his remarks: “He’s pitching like the worst pitcher in Major League Baseball”, he mentioned in his own podcast entitled “Nothing Personal with David Samson”.
Most of Alcantara’s outings this season have been poor. The most recent? He pitched four innings against the San Diego Padres on Wednesday where he allowed six earned runs, four walks, seven hits and no strikeouts. Alcantara currently has an 8.47 ERA. Of the 11 games he has started, only one has been a quality start
There will be a stalemate between what the Marlins want for Sandy and what the market is willing to offer, which will not lead to any trade. It’s better to make no trade than a bad trade.
David Samson promotes Sandy Alcantara, but with his realities
This is not the first time Samson has spoken about Alcantara’s possible trade. He already spoke about it earlier this month, but with a little more hope. “We believe in him as a player and as a player, and we can’t afford to trade him at such a low price. Alcantara is still owed $17 million next year, with another $2 million guaranteed in 2027. That makes him a trade prospect with difficulties, with $19 million assured.
The Miami Marlins are definitely not competing for the postseason this year; they are at the bottom of the National League East Division with a 22-32 record. So, trading Alcantara is the next most logical step, but if he doesn’t perform in the coming weeks, his value will plummet even further. And it seems that, of all people, he himself knows the seriousness of the situation.
