The offseason is heating up, and the Marlins are reportedly fielding interest in Jesús Luzardo. This raises some intriguing questions about the future of both Luzardo and the Marlins. Given his injury history and the fact that he’s coming off a season marred by setbacks, is now really the right time for Miami to trade him?

On one hand, Luzardo has shown flashes of brilliance, particularly in 2023 when he posted a solid 3.58 ERA over 178.2 innings. But with his injury woes, can the Marlins afford to gamble on his potential? If they do decide to move him, what kind of return should they realistically expect?

Let’s not forget the context here: Luzardo is under arbitration control for two more seasons, which could make him a valuable asset for a contender looking to buy low. But is it worth the risk for teams to invest in a player with such a checkered injury history?

And speaking of contenders, which teams do you think would be the best fit for Luzardo? Are there any specific franchises that should be looking to take a chance on him, or should they steer clear?

Additionally, if the Marlins hold onto Luzardo and he performs well in the first half of the season, could he become one of the hottest trade chips at the deadline? What would that mean for Miami’s rebuilding strategy?

Let’s dive into this discussion! What are your thoughts on Luzardo’s trade value, and how do you see this situation playing out for both him and the Marlins?
