Rangers Have Minimal Financial Flexibility As Deadline Approaches
The Rangers have rallied back from sub-.500 records in April and May, playing at a 27-21 pace since June 1 and climbing to the top of the AL West in the process. They’re two games ahead of the Astros and two-and-a-half games ahead of the Mariners — the latter of whom they just toppled 3-to-1 […]
Marlins Open To Offers On Several Controllable Players
The Marlins’ recent 12-game losing streak put a serious dent in their postseason hopes and ostensibly changed president of baseball operations Peter Bendix’s course at the deadline. While Miami isn’t expected to act as a pure seller, the Fish appear more open to making some sell-side moves if they bring back help in other areas […]
The Opener: Podcast, Tigers, Skubal, Tatis, Bieber
We’ll be dropping the latest episode of the MLB Trade Rumors podcast on the site in a little bit, but it’s already available for download on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and other mediums. Both Anthony Franco and I joined host Darragh McDonald this week for an extended preview of the upcoming trade deadline. Look for it […]
Yankees, Christian Bethancourt Agree To Minor League Deal
The Yankees have agreed to a minor league deal with veteran catcher Christian Bethancourt, per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com. He’ll report to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. New York has been on the lookout for a right-handed-hitting catcher for some time now. Bethancourt, 34, isn’t the solution to that search — the Yankees will surely continue to explore […]
Top 50 Deadline Trade Candidates
We’re less than a week away from Monday’s trade deadline! Activity has yet to really pick up outside of a fascinating pitcher for hitter swap between the Nationals and Red Sox over the weekend. There have otherwise been mostly depth moves. The compressed standings mean all but six teams (the Angels, A’s, Royals, Rockies, Mets […]
Braves Re-Sign Kyle Farmer To Minor League Deal
The Braves re-signed infielder Kyle Farmer to a minor league contract and assigned him to Triple-A Gwinnett. He would’ve debuted with the Stripers tonight before the game was rained out. Farmer is back in the organization after being released last week. He’d spent the season on the big league roster around a six-week injured list stint […]
Trevor McDonald To Undergo Tommy John Surgery
Giants starter Trevor McDonald will need to undergo Tommy John surgery, manager Tony Vitello said on Tuesday (link via Maria Guardado of MLB.com). The full UCL reconstruction typically comes with a 14-16 month recovery that’ll probably keep him out for all of 2027. This was the fear when McDonald went on the injured list last week […]
Twins To Buy At Deadline, Targeting Bullpen Help
Royce Lewis hit a two-run double with two outs in the ninth to walk off the Royals tonight. The victory brought the Twins back to .500 and within a half-game of the Guardians for the AL’s last Wild Card spot. They’re in third place in the AL Central and just 2.5 back of the White […]
Twins’ David Festa To Undergo Thoracic Outlet Surgery
Twins right-hander David Festa will undergo surgeries on his shoulder and pectoral muscle tomorrow, reports Dan Hayes of The Athletic. The first will address a shoulder impingement, while the latter is to alleviate symptoms of neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome. Minnesota general manager Jeremy Zoll said last week that Festa was likely to miss the entire season. […]
White Sox Sign Eric Haase To Minor League Deal
The White Sox signed catcher Eric Haase to a minor league contract and assigned him to Triple-A Charlotte. The Knights announced the move this evening. Haase was released by the Giants last week. He had spent the preceding three months on San Francisco’s MLB roster. Haase signed an offseason minor league deal and was in camp […]
Cardinals Select Peter Strzelecki
The Cardinals announced that they have selected the contract of right-hander Peter Strzelecki. The 40-man roster had a vacancy that is now filled. Righty Hunter Dobbins has been optioned to Triple-A Memphis as the corresponding active roster move. Strzelecki, 31, was just signed to a minor league deal a few days ago. He made one […]
Mariners Designate Buddy Kennedy For Assignment
The Mariners announced that outfielder Rob Refsnyder has been reinstated from the ten-day injured list. Infielder Buddy Kennedy has been designated for assignment as the corresponding move. Both players were added by Seattle as the club attempted to balance out their position player group. The lineup leans heavily to the left side, so they signed […]
Braden Shewmake Elects Free Agency
The Brewers announced that infielder Braden Shewmake, who was designated for assignment last week, cleared waivers and was sent outright to Triple-A Nashville. He then exercised his right to reject the assignment and elect free agency, per Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Milwaukee acquired Shewmake from the Astros earlier this month in a […]
Orioles Have Discussed Jackson Holliday, Colton Cowser In Trade Talks
The Orioles’ trade deadline direction is still up in the air with less than a week to go. Baltimore sits on a disappointing 52-55 record, burying them 11 games behind the division-leading Rays but leaving them just two games out in the AL Wild Card chase. They’re facing a similarly disappointing Tigers club right now […]
Marlins Reportedly Open To Trading Liam Hicks
The Marlins are willing to trade catcher/first baseman Liam Hicks, according to Mark Feinsand of MLB.com. He adds that the Cardinals could be willing to move a catcher as well, most likely Pedro Pagés or Iván Herrera. Feinsand lists the Yankees, Red Sox, Rays, White Sox, Rangers and Dodgers as clubs in the market for […]
Braves Select Elieser Hernández
The Braves selected the contract of right-hander Elieser Hernández from Triple-A Gwinnett, per a team announcement. Lefty Connor Thomas was optioned to Gwinnett in his place. It’s the second big league stint of the season with Atlanta for Hernández, the former Marlins hurler who spent the 2024-25 seasons with the Korea Baseball Organization’s LG Twins. […]
Rays Interested In Zach Neto
The Rays are going into the deadline as clear buyers and Robert Murray of FanSided reports that Angels shortstop Zach Neto and Mets right-hander Freddy Peralta are players they have shown interest in. MLBTR covered the Peralta tidbit in this post. The fact that they are interested in Neto is unsurprising. He would be very […]
Tigers Designate Jake Rogers For Assignment
The Tigers have designated catcher Jake Rogers for assignment, per a team announcement. His spot on the roster will go to veteran infielder/outfielder Javier Báez, who is returning from the injured list and will start tonight’s game in center field (via Jason Beck of MLB.com). With Rogers jettisoned from the roster, the Tigers will turn […]
Shea Langeliers, Mark Leiter Jr. Undergo Surgeries
July 28: Both players underwent surgery today, Gallegos reports. Leiter has formally been ruled out for the season. There’s still no timetable for Langeliers’ return, though there’s obviously a chance this will end his year as well. July 27: Athletics catcher Shea Langeliers will undergo surgery to repair a meniscus tear in his right knee, […]
Latest On Freddy Peralta’s Market
Over the course of the next six days, the Mets figure to ship out around a half dozen players. Right-hander Freddy Peralta is mired in a deep slump, but even amid a rough stint on the mound, he’s still one of the likeliest players on the roster to change hands. The longtime Brewers standout is […]
Marlins Getting Interest In Braxton Garrett; Sandy Alcantara Unlikely To Move
The Marlins’ recent 12-game losing streak, which they just snapped last night, has torpedoed the team’s once-promising playoff odds. Just a few weeks ago, Miami looked like a surefire deadline buyer. Now, at 53-54 with breakout righty Max Meyer on the injured list, the Fish seem in a more precarious position. They’re not in a […]
Giants Sending Casey Schmitt For Imaging On Left Knee
Giants infielder/outfielder Casey Schmitt was pulled from last night’s win over the Brewers with a knee injury. He came up lame after singling in the second inning. San Francisco is sending Schmitt for an MRI today, manager Tony Vitello told reporters, including Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area. The skipper added that Schmitt is […]
Blue Jays’ Yimi Garcia Getting Checked For Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
Blue Jays right-hander Yimi Garcia has had a long road back from elbow surgery. That road may be taking another turn, as the club is sending him for evaluation regarding thoracic outlet syndrome, per Shi Davidi of Sportsnet. The reliever has been dealing with neck discomfort on his rehab assignment. It’s been more than a year […]
The Opener: Marlins, Pirates, Scherzer
The Tuesday schedule will now include a day game after Cleveland and Cincinnati were washed out last night. The clubs will match up for a day/night doubleheader that kicks off in the early afternoon. 1. Marlins snap losing streak When you’ve lost 12 games in a row, Jhoan Duran isn’t who you want to see […]
