White Sox Acquire Luis Castillo

The White Sox and Mariners have agreed to a trade that will send right-hander Luis Castillo to Chicago in exchange for right-hander Seranthony Domínguez, outfielder Nolan Jones, and catching prospect Boston Smith. Both teams have officially announced the trade, which was initially reported by ESPN’s Jeff Passan. ESPN’s Alden González adds that the White Sox […]

Dodgers Designate Cole Irvin For Assignment

The Dodgers added right-handers Kyle Hurt and Wyatt Mills to their bullpen tonight. They’ll take their roster spots from Will Klein, who was placed on the injured list, and Cole Irvin, who was designated for assignment. Hurt and Mills were already on the 40-man roster, so Irvin’s DFA gives L.A. an open spot on the […]

Giants Select Nate Furman

The Giants selected the contract of infielder Nate Furman, per a team announcement. Jesus Rodriguez is heading to the injured list with an elbow injury. San Francisco has an opening on the 40-man roster, so an additional move was not required. Furman came to the organization as the player to be named later in a […]

Athletics Select Ben Bowden, DFA Connor Thomas

6:40 pm: To make room for Bowden on their 40-man roster, the Athletics have designated Connor Thomas for assignment. They claimed the left-hander off waivers from the Braves earlier this week and optioned him to Triple-A Las Vegas. In two appearances for Atlanta this year, Thomas gave up 15 runs in 6 1/3 innings. That […]

Pirates Showed Interest In Huascar Brazobán

According to Joel Sherman of the New York Post, the Pirates recently expressed some interest in trading for Mets reliever Huascar Brazobán. This report came before the Pirates dealt for Camilo Doval, but given the state of their bullpen – which ranks among the bottom half of teams in ERA, SIERA, and Win Probability Added […]

Brewers Activate Brandon Lockridge From 60-Day IL

The Brewers have reinstated outfielder Brandon Lockridge from the 60-day injured list ahead of their game tonight against the Angels. They have also recalled right-hander Garrett Stallings from Triple-A Nashville. The Brewers had two open spaces on their 40-man roster, so they did not need to make a corresponding move to activate Lockridge. They also […]

Ryan O’Hearn To Miss 6-8 Weeks With Quad Strain

The Pirates have placed Ryan O’Hearn on the 10-day injured list with a left quad strain, the team announced this afternoon. He told reporters (including Jason Mackey of MLB.com) that he expects to miss six to eight weeks. That might put the rest of his regular season in jeopardy. Eight weeks of recovery would have […]

Pirates Acquire Camilo Doval

3:42pm: The deal is official. Both teams have announced the trade. Pittsburgh designated right-hander Hunter Stratton for assignment to clear a spot for Doval. 1:23pm: The Yankees are acquiring catcher Omar Alfonzo and outfielder Luis Cruz in the deal, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports. 1:17pm: The Pirates and Yankees are in agreement on a trade that […]

Rangers Select Nolan Kingham

The Rangers announced this afternoon that they have selected Nolan Kingham‘s contract from Triple-A Round Rock. The right-hander will be making his MLB debut if he gets into a game. In a corresponding move, Texas optioned fellow righty Luis Curvelo back to Triple-A. Kingham, 29, was drafted by the Braves in 2018 and pitched in […]

Red Sox Acquire Jahmai Jones

TODAY: The Tigers will receive left-handed pitching prospect Jojo Ingrassia as the player to be named later, as per Alex Speier.  A 14th-round pick out of Cal State-Fullerton in the 2023 draft, Ingrassia is in his second season of high-A ball, and he has a 3.27 ERA, 33% strikeout rate, and 12.2% walk rate across […]

Angels Scratch José Soriano From Scheduled Start

The Angels announced Saturday that they’ve scratched right-hander José Soriano from his scheduled start. Brent Suter will start a bullpen game in his place. Interim general manager John Mozeliak took the uncommon step of publicly acknowledging that the decision is related to the trade deadline, issuing the following statement: “Today, José Soriano will not make […]

Mariners Place Luke Raley On 10-Day IL, Select Stuart Fairchild

The Mariners announced that Luke Raley has been placed on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to July 31) due to left forearm strain.  Outfielder Stuart Fairchild was selected from Triple-A to take Raley’s spot on the active roster, and no other move was needed to bring Fairchild up since Seattle had two open spots on […]

Mariners Open To Discussing George Kirby, Perhaps Randy Arozarena In Trade Talks

Mariners right-hander George Kirby is drawing trade interest from “multiple teams,” according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan.  While this isn’t surprising, the intriguing new wrinkle is that these clubs “get the sense [Kirby] is available and could be moved before the Aug. 3 deadline.” A trade ultimately seems unlikely, as noted by the Seattle Times’ Adam […]

Mets Select Kevin Herget

The Mets announced Saturday that they’ve selected the contract of righty Kevin Herget from Triple-A Syracuse. New York had an open roster spot after trading lefty A.J. Minter to the Twins earlier in the week. Righty Xzavion Curry, who tossed five innings in long relief last night and wouldn’t have been available for several days […]

Twins Designate Cody Laweryson For Assignment

The Twins announced that right-hander Cody Laweryson was designated for assignment.  The move opens up a 40-man roster spot for Garrett Acton, who has been activated from the 60-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A.  In other roster news, Minnesota has officially added newly-acquired reliever A.J. Minter to the active roster, and righty Zebby Matthews […]

Several Teams Showing Interest In Casey Mize

Tarik Skubal is the prize of the 2026 deadline — so much so that it’s easy to forget the Tigers have multiple quality starting pitchers to peddle if they do indeed end up selling off veteran pieces, as they’re expected to do now. Right-hander Casey Mize, the No. 1 overall pick back in 2018, is […]

Cubs Interested In Ray, Holmes, Hancock, Mize, Bullpen Help

11:46AM: The Cubs would preferably want to add three pitchers by the deadline, as per The Athletic’s Patrick Mooney and Ken Rosenthal.  This trio of adds could break down as a starter and two relievers or two relievers and one starter, depending on what is available. 11:40AM: It is no surprise that pitching is the […]

Rangers, Phillies Among Teams Interested In Dodgers’ Alex Call

The Dodgers are getting interest in outfielder Alex Call, per Fabian Ardaya and Katie Woo of The Athletic. The Rangers and Phillies are among the teams who have inquired on the righty-swinging outfielder. Philadelphia’s interest dates all the way back to last deadline. Call, then with the Nationals, went to the Dodgers in exchange for […]

Braves Designate Elieser Hernandez For Assignment

The Braves announced Saturday that right-hander Elieser Hernandez has been designated for assignment. Right-handed reliever James Karinchak has been recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett in his place. Hernandez, 31, seems to have stepped into the Carlos Carrasco/Jesse Chavez role in Atlanta. The Braves near-habitually stash a veteran righty who can’t be optioned in Gwinnett and cycle […]

Cardinals Designate Tink Hence For Assignment

The Cardinals announced that right-hander Tink Hence has been designated for assignment.  The move opens up a 40-man roster space for Quinn Mathews, whose contract has now been officially selected from Triple-A (as reported two days ago).  Righty Matt Svanson was optioned to Triple-A in the corresponding 26-man roster move for Mathews. Hence was a […]

Marlins Have Extremely High Asking Price On Otto Lopez

Talks between the Red Sox and Marlins on shortstop Otto Lopez didn’t go anywhere and are “dead” at this point, Sean McAdam of MassLive.com reports. McAdam adds that the Fish are understandably seeking a package headlined by “elite” prospect(s) in order to part with the remaining three-plus seasons of control on Lopez, who leads the […]

Orioles’ Colin Selby Undergoes Season-Ending Surgery; Ryan Mountcastle Suffers Oblique Strain

Colin Selby‘s 2026 season will end without a single pitch thrown, as Orioles president of baseball operations Mike Elias told reporters (including Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com) yesterday that Selby underwent surgery on his right labrum and rotator cuff earlier this week.  The recovery period will keep Selby on the injured list into the 2027 season.  […]
