The Florida Marlins worked out a trade with the Washington Nationals on Monday as they sent Scott Olsen and Josh Willingham up north to Washington D.C. In return, the Marlins will be getting three young players as they look to add even more youth to their roster.
The Marlins will be getting second baseman Emilio Bonifacio and two minor leaguers: second baseman Jake Smolinski and right-hander P.J. Dean in the five player trade.
I know a lot of Marlins fans are thinking why did the Marlins make this trade? Well both Willingham and Olsen are entering their first year of salary arbitration. Basically it is a paycut on the team salary.
What do you think of the trade Marlins fans?
