What happened: Yahoo Sports raised the possibility that MLB's next collective bargaining agreement could allow teams to trade draft picks. The discussion identified Miami as a club that might use that flexibility.

Why it matters: Movable picks would give rebuilding clubs another way to convert draft capital into major league help. For Miami, that tool would sit alongside trades and free agency in reshaping the roster.

What to watch: Negotiations will determine whether pick trading makes the final agreement. Miami's draft approach remains unchanged until any rule change becomes official.
