His contract, with an average annual value of $19.4 million, is considered affordable for a player who has recorded elite numbers in the last two campaigns.\n\n\n

Arizona will listen to offers, but the price will be high<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\nThe Diamondbacks urgently need to reinforce their pitching, and a trade for Marte could open up that possibility. General Manager Mike Hazen<\/strong> has reiterated that he is willing to listen to proposals, although the organization will demand significant compensation in exchange for the Dominican.\n\nFurthermore, Marte possesses rights 10 and 5<\/strong>, which gives him the power to veto any trade. That, along with the high price demanded by Arizona, makes a trade in this offseason considered unlikely<\/strong>, according to Steve Gilbert<\/strong> of MLB.com.\n\nEven so, the interest from teams like the Red Sox, Rays, and Tigers confirms that Marte is one of the most attractive pieces available this winter.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
