MLB Trade Deadline Approaches: Miami Marlins, Chicago White Sox, and Los Angeles Angels Make Moves - Orioles and Cubs in the Hunt

In the world of Major League Baseball, trade rumors and speculations are rampant as the July 30 trade deadline approaches. This year, several teams are expected to be active in trades, either as buyers or sellers. Among them are the Miami Marlins, Chicago White Sox, and Los Angeles Angels.

The Miami Marlins are likely to continue selling players such as LHP Jesús Luzardo, closer Tanner Scott, first baseman Josh Bell, and corner outfielders Bryan De La Cruz. The Chicago White Sox may trade notable players like Luis Robert Jr., LHP Garrett Crochet, RHP Erick Fedde, closer Michael Kopech, shortstop Paul DeJong and outfielder Tommy Pham. The Los Angeles Angels may trade veterans such as outfielder Kevin Pillar, third baseman Luis Rengifo, reliever Matt Moore, left fielder Taylor Ward and LHP Tyler Anderson before the deadline.

As we enter July, teams are assessing their positions and deciding whether to buy or sell. The Orioles are holding onto their top prospects and not willing to trade them for a controllable starter. Garrett Crochet and Tommy Pham could be targets for the Orioles, but it may require trading catcher Samuel Basallo or Coby Mayo. Cal Quantrill would be a solid addition to the Orioles' rotation as rotation depth.

With four weeks until the trade deadline, teams are making their moves in hopes of improving their chances at success. The Cubs have a record of 40-48 with a run differential of -26 and are six back in the wild-card race. The Rangers have a record of 39-48 with a run differential of -7 and are 8 1/2 back in the wild-card race.
