The Miami Marlins are one of the most exciting teams in baseball. They have a young, talented core that includes players like Giancarlo Stanton, Jose Fernandez, and Christian Yelich.
Miami had already offered to sign Fernandez to an extension before the 2015 season, and even though the right-hander was coming off Tommy John surgery, he rejected that $40.7 million in guaranteed money to bet on himself — a sign of the self-confidence that had both positive and negative effects on the pitcher throughout his life.
