According to Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com, the Miami Marlins aren’t interested in trading right field Giancarlo Stanton .

In fact, Marlins president of baseball operations Larry Beinfest told Jon Heyman that they are seeking a powerful bat to protect Stanton in their lineup.

Via CBSSports.com: ”We went someone to hit behind him, someone to offer more power,” Beinfest said. “Giancarlo represents the power on our team.”

Stanton, who just turned 23 on November 8th, hit .290/.361/.608 with 37 home runs and 86 RBI’s in just 123 games with the Miami Marlins last season.
