As the MLB trade deadline approaches, executives are starting to reach out about potential player trades. This year's excitement seems tempered due to the MLB's expanded postseason, which has resulted in more teams feeling like contenders, thereby complicating trade negotiations. A recent survey of executives indicates that few top-tier players are likely to be available since many are part of contending teams. Teams are categorized into 'Unloaders,' 'Tweeners,' 'Holders,' and 'Acquirers' to analyze potential trade strategies ahead of the deadline.
One unfortunate victim of Major League Baseball's expanded postseason is the deadline, as more teams believe they are contenders, complicating trade dynamics.
