Cardinals Rumors: Burleson, Crooks, Romero
The Cardinals’ skid coming out of the All-Star break has dropped them below .500 and cemented them as sellers. They have no shortage of players to peddle to other clubs, and ESPN’s Jeff Passan indicates that president of baseball ops Chaim Bloom isn’t likely to have many players wholly off limits. Recently extended infielder and […]
Cubs Recall Antoine Kelly For MLB Debut
The Cubs are adding left-hander Antoine Kelly to the roster for a weekend series against the Yankees, the team announced. He’ll take the spot of Gavin Hollowell, who heads to the injured list with shoulder inflammation. Kelly will be making his big-league debut when he appears in a game. Chicago picked up Kelly in a […]
Orioles Designate Chadwick Tromp For Assignment
The Orioles have designated catcher Chadwick Tromp for assignment, the team announced Friday. Newly acquired catcher Jake Rogers will take his spot on Baltimore’s active and 40-man roster.

Brewers, Pirates Among Teams Interested In Luke Weaver
The Brewers and Pirates are among the many clubs who’ve shown interest in Mets right-hander Luke Weaver, per Will Sammon and Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. Strong interest in Weaver should come as no surprise with the Mets entering the deadline as sellers and the veteran righty enjoying a dominant season. ESPN’s Jeff Passan suggested […]
Tigers Scratch Casey Mize From Friday Start
Tigers right-hander Casey Mize might’ve thrown his last pitch with the club. Detroit scratched him from his scheduled start tonight, according to multiple reports, including from Chris McCoskey of the Detroit News. The move preserves Mize’s health heading into Monday’s trade deadline. A deal is not in place, but holding Mize out signals that Detroit […]
Reds Getting Significant Interest In Hunter Greene
The Reds are drawing substantial interest in right-hander Hunter Greene, per reports from Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com and Buster Olney of ESPN. That’s not surprising given the combination of their seller status, Greene’s dominant results when healthy, and the right-hander’s club friendly contract. Robust interest hardly means a trade will […]
The Opener: Clemens, Seager, Peralta
Dodgers two-way star Shohei Ohtani was out of the starting nine on Thursday due to nagging knee issues. The injury is keeping him from pitching, but wasn’t supposed to knock him out of the lineup. Manager Dave Roberts told reporters that Ohtani will DH on Friday (h/t Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic). 1. Clemens slugs […]
Mets Trade A.J. Minter To Twins
The Twins added some needed bullpen help Friday morning, formally announcing the acquisition of left-hander A.J. Minter from the Mets in exchange for minor league infielders Billy Amick and Bruin Agbayani. Right-hander Cole Sands, who’s set to undergo season-ending elbow surgery, moves from the 15-day IL to the 60-day IL to create a spot on […]
Which Teams Can Make A Mason Miller Offer The Padres Will Like?
One of the most talked-about trade candidates this summer has been Mason Miller of the Padres. Actually lining up a trade that makes sense is a challenge for a few reasons. For one thing, the Padres aren’t clear sellers. A recent five-game win streak has pushed their record to 55-53. They are the top National […]
Latest Chatter On Tarik Skubal
Tarik Skubal is going to dominate baseball’s headlines for the next few days. The two-time reigning AL Cy Young winner may have made his final start in a Detroit uniform yesterday.

Twins’ Cole Sands To Undergo Elbow Surgery
Twins right-hander Cole Sands is headed for surgery to remove loose bodies and bone spurs from his right elbow, reports Dan Hayes of The Athletic. He’s expected to miss the rest of the season.

Nationals Notes: Abrams, Bullpen, Parker
The Nationals are juggling various possibilities as the deadline approaches. Washington is one game above .500 and enters a difficult series in Atlanta two games back in a crowded NL Wild Card field. They’re ahead of schedule in the rebuild and have arguably MLB’s best offense, but the pitching staff is the worst of any […]
Padres, Diamondbacks Scouting Freddy Peralta
The list of teams monitoring Mets right-hander Freddy Peralta now includes the Padres and Diamondbacks. Both clubs had scouts at Citi Field when Peralta faced the Dodgers on Sunday, per Will Sammon of The Athletic. The Rays, Brewers, and Phillies are among the teams known to also be in on Peralta. Manager Andy Green told […]
Giants Open To Covering Part Of Robbie Ray’s Salary In Trade
The Giants are all but guaranteed to move the impending free agent trio of Luis Arraez, Robbie Ray and Tyler Mahle within the next four days. They’d surely flip reliever JT Brubaker if they can drum up interest. Arraez and Ray are their most notable rental trade chips, though finding a taker for the latter is complicated by […]
Astros To Release J.P. France
The Astros are moving on from right-hander J.P. France, per Chandler Rome of The Athletic. The veteran has spent most of the season at Triple-A. France struggled in three games with the Astros in April. He was designated for assignment and passed through waivers after a brief stint in the majors. Houston added France to […]
Cardinals To Select Quinn Mathews
The Cardinals announced that left-hander Quinn Mathews will start Saturday’s game. He will be making his major league debut in the process. He is not yet on the 40-man roster, so the Cards will need to add him. The roster is currently full, so they will need to open a spot between now and then. […]
