Sandy Alcantara Remains Marlins' Rotation Anchor

Miami exercised Alcántara’s $21 million option for 2027, avoiding a $2 million buyout and preserving a reported six-year, $75 million guarantee; coverage notes a possible $1 million trade bonus. He went 13-11 with a 3.87 ERA and led MLB with 214 innings. No extension or Houston pursuit has been reported.
