MLB Deadline Week: Most Teams Still in Playoff Hunt
With the trade deadline days away, compressed standings have blurred buyer/seller lines — even projected sellers may wait before dealing.
The MLB trade deadline arrives in under a week, and the market has been slow to develop outside of a pitcher-for-hitter swap between Washington and Boston. Only six teams — the Angels, A's, Royals, Rockies, Mets, and Giants — sit more than five games outside a postseason spot. Teams like the Reds and Blue Jays, typically expected to sell, may hold off to see if a short winning streak changes their calculus. A top-50 list of likely trade candidates has been published to track the most impactful players with real chances of being moved.
