I think Soto and Robles would net both Yelich and Realmuto. To VaRK's point, somehow the Nats would have to get someone to take Wieters's contract and probably Kelley as well. I think for those two top prospects and Wieters, the Marlins would make that deal.

The Marlins are no longer under financial pressures, so the fire sale is over. Their next big challenge is restocking the farm and that is going to be a tall order because that farm is a hot mess.  The package we sent to the ChiSox for Eaton would not buy us either Realmuto or Yelich.  Even though Robles and Soto are probably studs, it will take more than two potential studs to bring back two known, cost-controlled studs.  I would think a package of Soto, Crowe and Johnson gets us one of those Marlins.
