Not sure that axford and nuñez are in danger
No. They’re not in danger-danger. But Axford doesn’t have a huge track record and he started the season off on the wrong foot. Nunez has always struggled. He’s never going to be a premier closer. I’d like to think if the Marlins were actual contenders, they would trade for someone a little more reliable.
