Starling Marte Traded To Oakland, Jesus Luzardo To Miami

3 years agoMiami Marlins outfielder Starling Marte has been traded to the Oakland Athletics, according to Jon Heyman of MLB Network. In exchange, the Athletics have sent starting pitcher Jesus Luzardo to Miami. Marte has been having a bounce back year at the plate so far, slashing .306/.407/.453 with seven homers, 22 steals, 25 RBI and 52 runs scored over 63 games. Meanwhile, Luzardo was 2-4 this year for Oakland with a 6.87 ERA, 1.632 WHIP and 23.1 percent strikeout rate over 38 innings of work. Luzardo will be a reclamation project for Miami, as they hope to find the top prospect potential he had shown in the minors that had not yet appeared at the major league level. Meanwhile, Marte will see an uptick in value playing with a better Oakland offense, as he now rounds out an outfield that already includes Mark Canha and Ramon Laureano. Managers should try to acquire Marte now, as he should have better numbers in the second half of the season with Oakland.--Michael Grennell - RotoBaller
