The Marlins continued to deal from their starting rotation on Tuesday as they traded left-hander Ryan Weathers to the Yankees for four Minor Leaguers.
Weathers is the second starter the Marlins have traded this month. They struck a deal with the Cubs on Wednesday that was headlined by right-hander Edward Cabrera. The Yanks were one of the teams the Marlins talked to about Cabrera before they dealt him to Chicago.
These two deals could open up space in Miami’s rotation for the club’s top two pitching prospects, left-handers Thomas White and Robby Snelling. White (the Marlins' top prospect and the No. 22 prospect in baseball) and Snelling (No. 4, No. 51) are both among MLB Pipeline’s Top 100 prospects.
The 26-year-old Weathers was a first-round pick by the Padres in the 2018 MLB Draft, and he was traded to the Marlins in 2023. He owns a career 4.93 ERA with 235 strikeouts over 281 innings. He has not made more than 18 starts in a season, which he did during his rookie season with San Diego. Weathers made only eight starts this past season due to a combination of injuries, including a left flexor muscle strain he sustained in Spring Training.
Jones, who possesses 65-grade speed, might have been the fastest player in the Yankees’ system. The 23-year-old has stolen 69 bases in 148 career Minor League games.
Lewis, 22, hit 21 home runs in 122 games across Single-A and High-A last season. He was teammates with Matheus, who collected 40 steals and a .741 OPS across those same two levels in 2025. The 21-year-old Matheus has a .396 on-base percentage in the Minors but only 12 home runs in 232 games.
The 23-year-old Jasso posted a .257/.326/.400 slash line over 127 games at Double-A last season.
