Top Trade Targets, Hunter Harvey Traded to KC, and the State of the Rays and Mets
Top Trade Targets
With the trade deadline approaching, several players are being discussed as potential trade targets. Some of the top names on the market include:
– Bo Bichette, SS, Blue Jays
– Jack Flaherty, SP, Cardinals
– Luis Castillo, SP, Reds
– JT Realmuto, C, Phillies
– Josh Hader, RP, Brewers
These players could all fill needs for contending teams, and they are all expected to be available for a price. It will be interesting to see where they end up as the deadline approaches.
Hunter Harvey Traded to KC
The Kansas City Royals have acquired pitcher Hunter Harvey from the Baltimore Orioles in exchange for infielder Maikel Garcia. Harvey is a former top prospect who has struggled to stay healthy in recent years, but he has the potential to be a valuable addition to the Royals’ rotation.
The State of the Rays and Mets
The Tampa Bay Rays and New York Mets are two of the most surprising teams in baseball this season. Both teams were expected to be rebuilding, but they have both played well above expectations.
Tampa Bay Rays
The Rays have been one of the most consistent teams in baseball this season. They have a deep lineup and a solid bullpen, and they are currently in first place in the AL East.
New York Mets
The Mets have been one of the hottest teams in baseball since the All-Star break. They have won 20 of their last 25 games, and they are now in first place in the NL East.
Both of these teams have a chance to make a deep run into the playoffs this season. It will be interesting to see how they perform down the stretch.
Kind regards
