Rumors are certainly picking up across Major League Baseball. Now, there are just two days to go until the annual MLB trade deadline. Reports are popping up lef
Ryan Helsley is one of the most popular trade targets with no less than a half-dozen teams interested to varying degrees. Among the suitors, per sources, are the Yankees, Mets, Dodgers, Phillies, Rangers and Blue Jays.
But Arenado's name coming up is very interesting for Houston. In the offseason, the 10-time Gold Glover had a trade lined up to send him to Houston, but he shut down the trade, vetoing it with his no-trade clause.
To set the stage for the sprint to the deadline, here's a primer based on what I'm hearing from front office executives across the league.
Two days before Major League Baseball's trade deadline, the St. Louis Cardinals sit just two games above .500, with two former All-Stars (Ryan Helsley and Nolan Arenado) who could be at the center of trade talks as teams scramble to get deals done.
The Texas Rangers are linked to closers from the St. Louis Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Pirates, and Adolis Garcia's name has been rumored.
