List of MLB pitchers most likely to be traded starts with Sandy Alcantara

Marlins star Sandy Alcantara is seen as the ace most likely to hit the trade market.

But several other solid-to-excellent starters could potentially be dealt.

Here’s a (very) early list of the best possibilities. (We’ll assume the Padres contend, so Dylan Cease and Michael King don’t make this list):

1. Alcantara

With two additional years to go, including a 2027 $21M club option, he’s the biggest trade piece assuming he reclaims pre-Tommy John form.
