White Sox To Acquire Huascar Brazobán From Mets
The White Sox are deepening their bullpen, reportedly agreeing to acquire Huascar Brazobán from the Mets for minor league pitchers Gabe Davis and Zach Franklin. Chicago already has an opening on the 40-man roster and won’t need to make a corresponding move once the deal is finalized. Brazobán is having a career year at age […]
White Sox Move Erick Fedde To Bullpen, Could Trade For Another Starter
The White Sox are moving Erick Fedde to the bullpen following their acquisition of Luis Castillo from Seattle. Manager Will Venable announced the decision on Sunday afternoon, noting that Fedde will stay stretched out as a multi-inning reliever (link via Scott Merkin of MLB.com). For the time being, that keeps rookie left-hander Noah Schultz in the starting five. […]
Will Weekend Sweep Push Rangers Toward Selling?
This weekend couldn’t have gone much worse for the Rangers, who were swept by their in-state rivals. Today’s 7-3 loss at Daikin Park was a fifth straight defeat for Texas. They’re down to 55-57 and have fallen 2.5 games back of the Astros after relinquishing the top spot in the AL West during Friday’s opener. […]
Tigers Not Planning Fire Sale After Skubal Trade
After months of rumors, the Tigers finally dealt Tarik Skubal yesterday, sending the two-time Cy Young Award to the Dodgers for a three-player package (River Ryan and prospects Zyhir Hope and Brady Smith). While moving Skubal reflects the reality of the Tigers’ disappointing 54-58 record, it appears as though the club isn’t ready to become […]
Cubs Acquire Kevin Gausman
The Cubs land their veteran starter, announcing the acquisition of Kevin Gausman from the Blue Jays on Sunday night. Toronto lands middle infield prospect Ty Southisene and outfield prospect Brett Bateman in return. There are no cash considerations involved, as Chicago will pick up the remaining tab on Gausman’s $23MM salary. This brings the Cubs’ […]
Yankees Interested In Heliot Ramos
The Yankees already added one big bat in Luis Garcia Jr., but the Bronx Bombers are also looking at an outfield upgrade. Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports that the Yankees have had scouts watching Giants outfielder Heliot Ramos, who is also on the Phillies’ radar as per previous reports. Ramos (who turns […]
Giants Trade Tyler Mahle To Braves
The Braves and Giants announced a one-for-one swap on deadline eve. San Francisco traded veteran starter Tyler Mahle, an impending free agent, to Atlanta for reliever Anthony Molina. Atlanta needed some kind of mid-rotation stability behind Chris Sale. The Braves are dealing with myriad injuries in the rotation, including losing Reynaldo López to the IL this weekend. […]
Padres Reject Yankees’ Offer Involving Will Warren, Adrian Morejon
The Padres have rejected an offer that would have sent left-handed reliever Adrian Morejon to the Yankees in a deal for righty Will Warren, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports. It is unclear if other players were involved in the proposal. The Yankees were already known to have interest in Morejon, who is among the best […]
Cubs Interested In Kirby, Soriano, Weaver, Hoffman
7:35PM: The Mariners’ George Kirby is yet another pitcher the Cubs are considering, according to Mooney and Sharma. Reports emerged yesterday that the M’s were at least open to hearing offers on Kirby, even after Seattle moved Luis Castillo to the White Sox. 11:37AM: Few contenders need pitching more desperately than the Cubs. As ESPN’s […]
Dodgers “Less Likely” To Add To MLB Roster After Tarik Skubal Trade
The Dodgers made their latest enormous splash when they acquired two-time reigning American League Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal from the Tigers late Saturday. Skubal will bolster an already stacked team that has won two straight World Series and is on the fast track to its fifth consecutive NL West crown. With Skubal in tow, […]
Padres Considering Kodai Senga, Rafael Devers
The Padres improved to 58-54 with today’s 5-4 win over the Giants, and San Diego has now won eight of its last nine games to move within a game of the final NL wild card berth. This surge might officially push the Padres into more of a clear-cut buying stance as the deadline approaches, yet […]
Cardinals Rumors: May, Nootbaar, Phillies, Rays, Yanks
The Cardinals are shopping right-hander Dustin May, a realistic candidate to end up on the move before Monday’s trade deadline. An array of teams have shown interest in May, according to Derek Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. The Rays and Phillies each had a scout on hand to watch his most recent start, per […]
Yankees Acquire Luis Garcia Jr.
New York City native Luis Garcia Jr. is heading to his hometown team. The Yankees have acquired the slugger from the Nationals for a package of four right-handed pitchers — Yovanny Cruz, Jake Bird, and prospects Jack Cebert and Ben Grable.

Marlins Discussing Liam Hicks, Kyle Stowers In Trade Talks
5:11PM: The Astros are one of the teams interested in Stowers, the New York Post’s Jon Heyman reports. 4:10PM: Just when it seemed like a 12-game losing streak had sunk their season, the Marlins have won six of seven games since that losing streak to jump back to a 58-55 record. Miami remains one of […]
Tigers Release Sean Guenther
The Tigers released Sean Guenther on Friday, according to his MLB.com transaction log. The left-hander hasn’t pitched in the majors since last May.

Rays To Designate Craig Kimbrel For Assignment
The Rays have informed right-handed reliever Craig Kimbrel that they are designating him for assignment, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. His roster spot will go to righty Freddy Peralta, whom the Rays acquired from the Mets on Sunday. The well-traveled Kimbrel began the year in the Mets organization after signing a minor […]
Yankees, Rays, Pirates Interested In Adrian Morejon
Adrian Morejon could be the best relief pitcher traded ahead of the deadline, especially if the Padres decide to hold on to his teammate Mason Miller. Morejon ranks third among relievers in innings pitched over the last three seasons, with a 2.62 ERA and 2.93 SIERA. In his free agent walk year, he has arguably […]
Mets Claim Shawn Ross, Designate Joey Gerber
The Mets announced that catcher Shawn Ross has been claimed off waivers from the Pirates. To create 40-man roster space, right-hander Joey Gerber was designated for assignment. Gerber has a 4.32 ERA over 8 1/3 innings and seven appearances for New York this season, amidst multiple trips back and forth between the active roster and […]
Padres Sign J.P. France To Minor League Deal
The Padres have brought in right-hander J.P. France on a minor league deal, according to Chandler Rome of The Athletic. France was released from the Astros’ system on Thursday, having spent the past three months on an outright assignment at Triple-A Sugar Land. The Klutch Sports client will report to the Padres’ Triple-A affiliate in […]
Rays Acquire Freddy Peralta
The Rays have acquired right-hander Freddy Peralta from the Mets, per announcements from both clubs. In return, New York receives prospects Aidan Smith, Émilien Pitre and Gary Gill Hill. The Rays transferred Jake Fraley to the 60-day injured list to open a 40-man spot. Fraley has already been on the IL longer than that and […]
Yankees Interested In Luis Garcia Jr.
August 2: Sherman now reports that the Yanks are “trying to complete” a deal, with pitching prospect Jack Cebert “discussed prominently”. August 1: Nationals first baseman Luis Garcia Jr. was on hug watch after he was pulled from Friday’s matchup against the Braves. Turns out it was just a bit of knee soreness, and Garcia […]
Giants Claim Buddy Kennedy From Mariners
The Giants have claimed infielder Buddy Kennedy off waivers from the Mariners, according to announcements from both teams. Seattle designated Kennedy for assignment last week. The Giants also announced that they’ve transferred left-hander Matt Gage to the 60-day injured list, clearing a 40-man roster spot for Kennedy. It’s a reunion between San Francisco and Kennedy. […]
Blue Jays Acquire Jameson Taillon
The Blue Jays have acquired Jameson Taillon from the Cubs, the team announced.

Toronto will send cash considerations or a player to be named later back to Chicago. The Athletic’s Mitch […]
Phillies Outright Steward Berroa
Steward Berroa has passed through waivers, and the Phillies have sent him outright to Triple-A Lehigh Valley. The outfielder was designated for assignment last weekend. Berroa has been DFA’d on four occasions over the past two years, but this is the first time a new team hasn’t scooped him up. That means this is the […]

The two also affirm the team’s previously reported interest in Luke Weaver and Huascar Brazobán, among other Mets relievers. Pittsburgh has one of the best lineups in the majors. The […]
