Major League Baseball's trade deadline is set for Tuesday (Aug. 1) at 6 p.m. ET. MLB teams have less than 24 hours remaining to plot out their deadline strategies, and to attempt to buy or sell ahead of the stretch run. (Keep in mind that post-deadline waiver trades remain a thing of the past.) This has already been an eventful deadline, with several big names changing teams in the last week.
In the past few days, the following players have been traded: Max Scherzer (Mets to Rangers), Lucas Giolito (White Sox to Angels), Lance Lynn (White Sox to Dodgers), Jordan Montgomery (Cardinals to Rangers), Jordan Hicks (Cardinals to Blue Jays) and Aaron Civale (Guardians to Rays). We also learned last week that the best player in baseball is not going anywhere this week, as the Angels committed to making a playoff push with free-agent-to-be Shohei Ohtani, and that the Cubs and Padres are likely to hold on to their players with the same postseason dreams.
Who else might be dealt in the coming hours? Keep it here, as CBS Sports will be monitoring all the latest rumors, news, and analysis in a live blog below.
