There’s been plenty of crossover between the two long-standing franchises, with 80 players having represented both sides.

Miami Marlins first baseman Josh Bell is the first name that comes to mind. The 2022 Silver Slugger Award winner was traded to the San Diego Padres by the Washington Nationals as part of the blockbuster eight-player deal that saw Juan Soto move to Tony Gwynn Drive.

Anthony Bass is another easy answer to recall. Bass had been in the news recently after he made some anti-LGBTQ remarks, which led to the Blue Jays releasing him.

Currently a free agent, the 35-year-old has represented seven major league franchises during his career - the Marlins and Padres being two of them.

Bass was a fifth-round pick by the Padres during the 2008 MLB Draft. He was traded by the Padres in 2013. Bass went on to join the Marlins in 2021, spending two seasons at the franchise.
