After the MLB Trade Deadline came to a close, it is abundantly clear that the Miami Marlins front office does not know what it means to be buyers.

But when it's time to add to a young team with clear weaknesses but within striking distance of the postseason, Bendix reverted to what he does best.

Bendix is proving that he can build a contender organically with young talent.
