The trade deadline approaches rapidly, prompting increased activity from teams, especially those that hesitated until the last moment. Players such as Josh Naylor, Gregory Soto, and Ryan McMahon already moved to different teams. The evaluation considers player appeal and the likelihood of trades, balancing subjective rankings. Arizona’s Suárez emerges as a leading rental bat, boasting impressive statistics while teams increasingly express interest. Keller, a valuable mid-rotation starter signed for three more years, adds to the trade market appeal as teams search for cost-effective pitching options.
Suárez is the best rental bat available, leading the majors with 87 RBI and only behind Shohei Ohtani in NL homers with 36.
Keller is a steady mid-rotation starter signed for another three years, with salaries of $15-20MM that provide good value compared to the free agent market.
