Trade Talk

"The Marlins are looking for outfield help, especially a center fielder and the team has not ruled out pulling the trigger on a deal before the waiver deadline expires on Aug. 31.

"MLB.com has learned a couple of center field candidates on the Marlins' radar are Boston Minor League prospect David Murphy, and Willy Taveras, the speedster from the Astros.

"In exchange, the Red Sox are looking for relief help, and left-hander Taylor Tankersley's name has surfaced. The Marlins have a number of pitching prospects should the team not want to part with Tankersley, who has been effective in late-inning setup roles." (MLB)
