MLB Trade Deadline Buzz
With the July 30 MLB trade deadline fast approaching, teams like the Toronto Blue Jays are making key moves. Toronto aims to focus on winning in 2025, implying they’re not looking to trade stars Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette yet. However, they’re open to offers for free agents like Yusei Kikuchi and Yimi Garcia, who could draw significant attention from other teams.
Next, the New York Yankees are casting a wide net. Eyeing corner infield help and bullpen reinforcements, they might look at players like Tanner Scott and Kyle Finnegan. With a possibility of going ‘all-in,’ high-profile names, including Garrett Crochet, could be on their radar, and they might trade top prospects like Spencer Jones if the deal suits them.
On the other hand, the Chicago Cubs are gearing to trade some veterans after a mixed season. Relievers Hector Neris and Mark Leiter Jr. are attracting interest, though Cody Bellinger’s trade likelihood is complicated by his injury and contract status. Meanwhile, the Brewers, having signed Aaron Civale, might still show interest in White Sox pitcher Erick Fedde, fitting the needs of teams with budget constraints like Cleveland.
