I'm no expert on the Marlins but aren't most of the assets gone? Not a great farm system, a fanbase that has to be rebuilt (and I don't think that's easy in OOTP or in real life), and a ML team that is ... not good. Seems like a very long play to get them to the top.
I can't see the Rays being too bad. They have something like 6 top 100 prospects and most of those are in AAA. That sounds like the core of a young, inexpensive, good team right there if you manage it right.
