MLB trade rumors: Rays' Nathan Eovaldi to Red Sox, Orioles' Zach Britton to Yankees, Mets' Jeurys Familia to A's

by Felix Pantaleón

The 2018 Major League Baseball trade deadline will arrive at 4 p.m. EST on July 31. That gives contenders (and sellers) time between now and then to load up for a stretch run and a pennant race, or tear down for a better tomorrow. Already, Manny Machado has been traded from the Orioles to the Dodgers, Brad Hand from the Padres to the Indians and Jesse Chavez from the Rangers to the Cubs. What’s next? Will the Yankees make a splash for a starting pitcher? Will the Mets sell high on Jacob deGrom? Where will the Phillies turn after missing out on the Machado sweepstakes? Here’s a look at every major trade to go down as the deadline approaches.

PROSPECT SPOTLIGHT

Tyler Nunez, a C from Lake Nona HS, is a 6'2 190lb athletic catcher who provides strength with the bat and glove. During BP, Tyler stuck with a middle of the field approach while staying on a line. He impacted the ball well with his compact and direct path, T90EV. He showed off his real athleticism behind the plate by posting a 2.04 pop time while staying around the bag on every throw. He is a good looking athletic uncommitted catcher to keep an eye on.
