A year ago, Yoenis Cespedes, Gerardo Parra, David Price and Ben Revere were some of the biggest names to change hands at the trade deadline. This year, Chris Archer, Jay Bruce, Wade Davis and Chris Sale are among the biggest being bandied about.
While we’ve already seen some deals go down—most notably the trades of Drew Pomeranz and Brad Ziegler to Boston—there are more to come. If this year’s deadline is anything like last year, there will be plenty of moves to debate and dissect.
Not every team is represented here, but that doesn’t mean your favorite team won’t swing a deadline deal. Here you’ll find our predictions (some bold, some not so much) for what will happen between now and 4 p.m. ET on Aug. 1, the last day that teams can make trades without players having to pass through waivers.
