Garrett Crochet (P - BOS)

Red Sox Have Means To Pull Off Cy Young Blockbuster Trade. The Boston Red Sox should be in the market for some more pitching with the 2025 Major League Baseball trade deadline. Boston has the means to get some sort of big deal done this summer if it sees fit. The Red Sox still have one of the top farm systems in baseball despite trading some guys away last offseason for Garrett Crochet. Now, the Red Sox also boast one of the top American League Cy Young threats in Crochet and it wouldn't hurt to pair him with another workhorse.

Pirates OF Oneil Cruz Joins Historic Company With Multi-HR Explosion. Oneil Cruz has been going through an up-and-down season to say the least, but the Pittsburgh Pirates' young star still found a way to make history at the plate on Sunday. Cruz went yard twice in the Pirates' 12-1 win over the New York Mets, helping his team complete the sweep with two-run bombs in the first and seventh innings. According to Underdog Fantasy's Justin Havens, Cruz is only the third Pirates player this century to post a 15-home run, 25-stolen base season, and he did it with three months to spare. Starling Marte achieved the feat three times – in 2015, 2018 and 2019 – while Andrew McCutchen did so in both 2010 and 2013.

Braves trade pitch brings them veteran workhorse to aid decimated rotation. Despite sitting 10.5 games back in the National League East and eight games back of the third Wild Card, the Atlanta Braves aren't the obvious sellers that their 38-45 record would indicate. With a roster stacked with former All-Stars, the Braves certainly have the talent to climb out of the hole they have dug themselves, especially with Ronald Acuña Jr. and Spencer Strider back in the mix. Pending a total collapse in the next month, a soft buy may be an effective strategy for the Braves. This would mean that they wouldn't be in the mix for the trade deadline's best prizes, such as Jarren Duran or Seth Lugo, but instead look to fill out their roster with low-cost additions.

As for the what the A's would give up, in this proposal, we have Luis Severino, infield prospect Darell Hernaiz, and $15 million headed to Chicago. Hernaiz doesn't appear likely to get another shot with the green and gold, and with Severino due roughly $10 million this season, and $25 million next season, $15 million seemed like a good starting point. Severino also has a player option for the 2027 campaign, which is worth $22 million.

A big reason they have been performing at such a high level for as long as they have been is that they have successfully identified and developed young talent they land in the MLB draft. One of their most impressive hauls came in 2015, when they were awarded the No. 2 pick because of Brady Aiken not signing the year prior, to go along with their No. 5 overall selection.

Giants Sign Longtime Dodgers' Catcher to Minor League Deal. The San Francisco Giants are bringing on some extra help behind home plate, signing veteran backstop and longtime Los Angeles Dodger Austin Barnes to a minor league deal. Barnes, who spent the last 11 seasons donning Dodgers blue, was released by his former team back in May after getting off to a lackluster start in his age 35 campaign. Serving primarily as the back up to All Star Will Smith in Los Angeles, Barnes only managed to muster up a .214/.233/.286 slash line in the 42 at-bats he was given prior to his release. Per MLB Trade Rumors, the Giants have optioned the vet to their Arizona Complex League affiliate for a ramp-up period before the team eventually moves him up to Triple-A Sacramento.

James Wood becomes first since Barry Bonds to be intentionally walked 4 times in a game. Washington slugger James Wood became the first major leaguer since Barry Bonds to be intentionally walked four times in a game in the Nationals’ 7-4, 11-inning win over the Los Angeles Angels. Bonds was intentionally walked four times in four different games in 2004. The only other players since at least 1955 to be intentionally walked four times in a game are Wood, Roger Maris, Garry Templeton, Manny Ramirez and Andre Dawson. Dawson drew five intentional passes for the Chicago Cubs against Cincinnati on May 22, 1990.

Fast forward half of a season, and no team in MLB has gotten better run prevention from its relievers than the Giants, whose bullpen has posted an ERA of 2.81 as of June 29. Only the Texas Rangers and Chicago Cubs are within even half a run, at 3.30 and 3.31 respectively, and even then just barely. In 2024, longtime closer Camilo Doval struggled in the role, posting a 4.88 ERA as he simply could not manage to keep his walk rate at a manageable level.

Despite their success, right-hander Michael King hasn't pitched since May 18. As time passes, uncertainty grows with when King will return. Luckily, the right-hander told the San Diego Union-Tribune's Kevin Acee that there is, “light at the end of the tunnel," after he threw on the field for the second time in four days.

Jarren Duran has emotional response to Red Sox trade rumors when confronted. The Boston Red Sox have an outfield logjam, and it's becoming increasingly evident that Jarren Duran will most likely be the odd man out. The 28-year-old arguably has the highest trade value in a group that includes Wilyer Abreu, Ceddanne Rafaela and Rob Refsnyder as the MLB trade deadline approaches.

Zack Wheeler (P - PHI)
6/29/25 2:24 PM -
The Phillies' starting pitching can get them back to October, but can't save them alone. Ranger Suárez took his start deep through seven innings on Sunday in Atlanta, just as he did in his previous outing on Tuesday in Houston, when he went for 7.2 frames. The Phillies' starting pitching has been among the very best in baseball as the calendar pushes into July. Suárez, who improved to 7-2 with Sunday's victory, has been excellent since returning to the fold from late spring and early season back issues. Zack Wheeler has remained as the Cy Young-caliber ace at the top, Cristopher Sánchez keeps finding new heights as a breakthrough lefty, and even though Aaron Nola is down with injury (and was struggling mightily before it), winter trade acquisition Jesús Luzardo has done a lot to counterbalance the veteran's absence and, for a stretch, so had rookie Mick Abel.

6/29/25 2:04 PM -
Marlins' Compelling Trade Candidate is Becoming Untouchable. For some reason, Miami Marlins outfielder Kyle Stowers has been pitched by some as one of the team's top trade candidates heading into the MLB trade deadline, and to be perfectly honest, it never made a ton of sense. The Marlins just acquired Stowers at last year's deadline, and while he is 27 years old (which is kind of old for the Marlins), he is still under club control for a bajillion years (he doesn't even become arbitration eligible until 2027) and has exhibited tremendous offensive potential this season. Heading into Sunday's action, Stowers was slashing .278/.356/.494 with 13 home runs and 40 RBI over 299 plate appearances, making a case for the National League All-Star team. The former second-round pick is one of several very intriguing young Miami hitters who are beginning to blossom, and for a Marlins franchise that has been desperate for bats for years now, it would be silly for them to move him.

In the first half of year, the Cubs were able to prove that they are one of the best teams in the National League. The loss of Justin Steele for the rest of the campaign was a significant blow and one that has yet to be addressed. The Cubs have been trying to give some of their younger arms a chance to prove themselves, but the results have mostly been underwhelming.

Colorado Rockies Pass on Brendan Rodgers for All-Star Slugger in 2015 MLB Redraft. One of the major reasons that the Colorado Rockies are in the position which they are now is because their recent draft picks have not panned out. With that pick, they added middle infielder Brendan Rodgers to their organzation, selecting him out of Lake Mary High School in Lake Mary, Fla. The only players pickeed before him were shortstop Dansby Swanson, who went No. 1 overall to the Arizona Diamondbacks and third baseman Alex Bregman, who was selected No. 2 by the Houston Astros.

San Francisco only made two notable moves with the signings of Willy Adames and Justin Verlander. Of the two, it was the Adames signing that was expected to help move the needle.

Red Sox's Roman Anthony Sounds Off On First Multi-Hit Game In Boston. Major League Baseball is hard enough without bad luck coming into play. Boston Red Sox rookie sensation Roman Anthony was having a rough go early in his big-league career.

After his big day, which bumped his OPS from .548 to .633, Anthony spoke about the relief of seeing a couple balls fall in after a string of hard-hit outs early in his career.

Seattle Mariners May Not Be Able to Make the Big Trade They Desperately Need to Make.

First, Suarez knows Seattle and the M's clubhouse, having played with several of these players in 2022 and 2023. Acquiring Suarez is also the cleanest roster fit, as it allows Ben Williamson to head back to Triple-A and allows the team to keep Luke Raley, Dominic Canzone and Donovan Solano.

The Cleveland Guardians have reached the midpoint of their season with a losing record, falling one game below .500 with back-to-back losses to the visiting St. Louis Cardinals. Cleveland left-hander Logan Allen (5-5, 4.25 ERA) will be tasked with trying to avoid a three-game series sweep Sunday, when he takes on Cardinals lefty Matthew Liberatore (5-6, 3.96). Brendan Donovan, Victor Scott II and Alec Burleson each drove in two runs Saturday as St. Louis staged its largest comeback of the season, rallying from five down for a 9-6 victory that earned reliever Matt Svanson his first win in the majors.

Prospect News Stash List #7: Buy Tong In Time For Grilling Season.
Graduated from Stash List #6: Chase's Fire or Colby Jacks Cheese: Chase Burns, Brady House, Harry Ford.
Note: Anyone promoted during the current season is ineligible for the stash list.
1. Guardians OF Chase DeLauter (23, AAA)
Slashing .314/.434/.500 with three home runs and more walks (17.9%) than strikeouts (12.3%). If I have to pick just one of these guys to swing some standings the rest of the way, it’s DeLauter by a mile. Cleveland might drag their feet a bit, but they’ve struggled like crazy to keep this guy on the field, and it makes sense to get him on a big league travel and rest schedule as soon as possible now that he’s locked in. Plus, it takes a while these days for young guys to adjust. Best to get him going now so he can help in August and beyond.
