Matz has transformed a negative, that being his failure to make the Cardinals' Opening Day rotation, into a positive by becoming a nifty utility pitcher. He's recorded at least four outs in 21 of his 29 appearances, and he's done so while generating a 3.29 ERA and a 5.11 strikeout-to-walk ratio.

Grosz has spent the entire 2025 season at high A, posting a 4.14 ERA with 94 strikeouts in 85 innings and holding batters to a .211 average. He has a high-spin fastball that sits in the mid-90s, but the secondary stuff needs improvement, and the command is a tick below average (35 walks).

The Detroit Tigers are reeling right now, dropping 10 of their last 11 headed into the weekend as their division lead starts to shrink coming off a spectacular

Major League Baseball's trade deadline is scheduled for next Thursday (July 31), meaning that teams have less than a week to get their midsummer shopping done. The Mariners made the first notable transaction of the mad season on Thursday night,

From the Yankees to the Dodgers, the sport's biggest giants are among the clubs that need to take action ahead of the July 31 deadline.

Now, as the Tigers prepare for their first deadline as buyers in 11 years -- and their first under team president Scott Harris -- the landscape looks dramatically different. The idea of trading an elite prospect for a two-month rental is largely a thing of the past. Teams are more concerned about club control and long-term value.

The 2025 MLB trade deadline is Thursday, July 31 at 6 p.m. ET, but there will be plenty of trade talk and transactions that take place beforehand. Here are trade rumors around the sport:

The Detroit Tigers aren't expected to make a big splash at the 2025 trade deadline, so don't count on power-hitting third baseman Eugenio Suárez.

Soto, 30, originally signed with the Tigers out of the Dominican Republic and pitched in Detroit from 2019 to 2022. He served as the Tigers’ closer for much of his final two seasons and was selected to the All-Star team in both 2021 and 2022.

Having moved into first place in the National League East, the New York Mets aren't necessarily looking to make a huge splash before the trade deadline.

The Arizona Diamondbacks got the trade deadline party started on Thursday night when they dealt 2024 All-Star Josh Naylor to the Seattle Mariners for two pitching prospects. That probably won't be the last time the D-backs make news before the July 31 deadline.
