Marlins Target Contreras at First

The Marlins are scrambling at first base, with injuries and underperforming players like Connor Norby leaving them short on offense and defense. Even Liam Hicks, their hot-hitting catcher, can’t stay behind the plate. With a low payroll and a recent big win over Philly, Miami’s playoff hopes hinge on smart moves — and one name’s rising: Boston’s Willson Contreras. Slashing .294/.398/.551 with 16 homers and 43 RBI, Contreras brings power, durability (135 games at first base last year), and fits Miami’s budget with his contract expiring in 2027. Despite his no-trade clause for 2026, acquiring him could be the short-term fix that turns them into a wild card contender by late July.
