If indeed the Marlins try for a rental starter, I like Greinke. He can eat up innings, is affordable, seems to rise up in big games, has ample playoff experience, and no commitment for 2024. More expensive are Kluber and Lynn. For a dark horse, what about Trevor May from the A's? Not a great year, but affordable and Oakland would likely be happy to salary dump. He is the highest-paid player in the team. He had a 115-inning year at Minnesota, so he has been underused. Could be a Jonathan Davis-style under-the-radar who requires little in return and equally little risk.
I don't think they need someone to eat up innings. I think they need a quality starter who can win games. Greinke doesn't seem to have a whole lot left. He's 39-years-old, a 5-inning pitcher with one of the worst ERAs in MLB. He was great in his day, but the Marlins need people who can win games now.
