It should be noted that Marte's comments fall short of any actual trade request; needless to say, virtually every player would prefer to play for a contender, all things considered. Marte doesn’t appear to have any hard feelings about the Pirates or his situation, noting that “if it [a trade] doesn’t happen, I will keep working hard and giving my team all I have.”Marte is under team control for the next two seasons, earning $11.5M in 2020 and possibly $12.5M via a club option for 2021 (with a $1M buyout).

The Houston Astros caught everyone’s attention in MLB this week when we learned the team is open to dealing All-Star shortstop Carlos Correa. After reportedly engaging in talks with the New York Mets, those discussions have now fizzled.

It’s not surprising to see the talks ended, for the time being, during one of the busiest times of each team’s offseason. Houston is still searching extensively for starting pitching and bullpen help, while the Mets were also involved in discussions for Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Starling Marte.
New York might be prioritizing its pressing need in the outfield and focusing its effort on Pittsburgh’s All-Star center fielder. The Pirates are already committed to rebuilding, which makes a trade for Marte far likelier than the reigning AL champions trading Correa.
Both sides could always revisit talks later in the offseason when other needs on the roster are addressed. For now, though, it appears Correa will remain with the Astros for the foreseeable future.
