According to ESPN’s Jeff Passan, the Chicago White Sox and Cleveland Indians have agreed to a trade that would send second baseman Cesar Hernandez to the White Sox.
The countdown is one: less than three full days remain until the 2021 MLB trade deadline. This year’s market is like no other, meaning that we could be in for a boatload of excitement. Here, we’ll track and analyze every notable rumor whispered throughout the day on Wednesday, July 28, 2021.
The Cincinnati Reds don’t care what hour of the day it is, they are here to make moves. After acquiring two relievers from the New York Yankees last night in Luis Cessa and Justin Wilson, the Reds are back to work.
After shaking up the clubhouse and creating some questionable headlines, Jerry Dipoto of Seattle is back wheeling and dealing. He has acquired Anderson to help lengthen out the depth for the Mariners after trading away team leader and closer Kendall Graveman.
The Pirates have been baseball’s busiest team, with the trade deadline less than a week away. On Monday, they made their second trade in as many days. The Pirates sent Clay Holmes to the Yankees in exchange for Hoy Jun Park and Diego Castillo.
The Detroit Tigers are rebuilding. That is not a secret. Although they sit in third place in the American League Central, the division belongs to the Chicago White Sox. Let’s take a look at what Detroit will do.
The Astros will certainly look to make some upgrades ahead of the trade deadline in order to solidify their rank atop the AL West pecking order.
The Milwaukee Brewers are running away with the National league Central. Entering Monday, they are 6.5 games up on the Cincinnati Reds. The one hole Milwaukee has in the lineup this season is at first base.
The Philadelphia Phillies are in the unenviable position of being caught in the middle. The New York Mets lead the East and the Atlanta Braves just traded for Joc Pederson to replace their injured superstar Ronlad Acuna Jr. What will the Phillies do?
The Rockies are clear sellers, though their record is better than many people would have anticipated at the start of this season. Still, it will be a long time before they surpass the elite three in the NL West, so Colorado should feel comfortable trading Story (and others) while they can.
We all knew the Minnesota Twins were going to be sellers at the deadline, and they started already. It is likely the Twins are not done yet either.
The Rangers are clear sellers, though their level of aggressiveness remains unclear. While it would be wise to trade any player above the age of 30 with an expiring contract, Texas does have to field a team and also doesn’t want to allow itself to get fleeced. Thus, make no mistake: the Rangers are more than comfortable with sitting pat if they so desire.
