Major League Baseball trade season is upon us. MLB's 2023 trade deadline is set for Tuesday evening, and notable names have started changing clubhouses. The biggest deal of the trade deadline (so far) went down Saturday, as the Rangers acquired veteran ace Max Scherzer as the Mets decided to pivot to selling. New York also shipped outfielder Mark Canha on Monday night, and the club could part ways with veteran star Justin Verlander on Tuesday.
Before the Scherzer deal, the Angels took two of the best trade candidates off the market on Wednesday night. First, the Angels decided to keep two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani at the deadline, and then they showed their commitment to buying around Ohtani by trading for White Sox starter Lucas Giolito.
The Dodgers have also had a busy week on the trade front, adding Kiké Hernández, Amed Rosario, Lance Lynn and Joe Kelly in deals with the Red Sox, Guardians and White Sox, respectively.
We'll be following all the moves that happen before Aug. 1 at 6 p.m. ET. Stay up to date below with our trade tracker.
