Despite playing for an awful Miami team, Cishek has posted back-to-back 35-35 save seasons. He also posted a career-high 11.57 K/9 in 2014. Miami is getting better by the day, so look for the closer to post career numbers across the board in 2015.

ADP: 134.9

Ozuna may be the team's third outfielder, but he has proven himself as a legitimate fantasy weapon. He slugged 23 home runs in 2014 with 26 doubles and five triples. His .269 batting average is right around his MilB average (.274), so it likely won't climb too much. Ozuna isn't the flashiest fantasy option, but he will be still a worth grabbing as an OF3 this spring.

Yelich continues to mature into a legitimate fantasy outfielder. He posted a .284 batting average and a .362 OBP atop the Marlins' lineup. He also scored 94 runs and stole 21 bases. He may not have much power, as he hit only nine home runs, but he can be a strong OF2 in deeper leagues.

ADP: 88.6

Gordon was the team's biggest offseason acquisition. The 26-year-old posted a .289 batting average with the Dodgers last year, but his true value came from the intangibles. Gordon swiped a league-leading 64 stolen bases to go along with 12 triples and 92 runs. It is scary to think of what the speedster could do with the big gaps in Marlins Park.

ADP: 81.8

Stanton was having a MVP season before a bean ball cost him the rest of the 2014 season. He posted an unthinkable 37 HRs, 105 RBIs and .288 batting average. He finally matured into the best power-hitter in the game and deserves to be a top-five fantasy pick in all formats this offseason.

ADP: 3.4
