Have to look at the whole picture. In taking on Rodney in return for their top prospect, the Marlins made room on the roster by sending down Brian Ellington and his 0..79 ERA. Question: Is Rodney even a better option than Ellington?

Rodney is most definitely a better option than Ellington. Other relievers in the Marlins pen may not be, but Rodney has a relatively strong track record along with a ridiculous start to 2016.

Rodney is worth the risk to a contender. He has been dominant. Paddack is at least 3 years away. I am a Padres fan but Rodney was a luxury for an injury plagued, rebuilding team. Marlins fans should be happy that their front office is going for it this year.
