Boston is an organization that deeply values operating efficiently, and a market like this is the epitome of inefficient.

The Miami Heat has a perfect position to pursue a potential trade for LeBron James with expiring contracts, strong support system, and minimal draft capital.

Michael Soroka's sinker left his hand at 89 mph, and despite the loss, he remains a focus for contending teams looking for talent before the trade deadline.

The trade deadline is rapidly approaching in ESPN leagues, and for some dynasty or keeper league teams, it's prime time to look ahead to the future.

Marcell Ozuna is absent from the Braves lineup while Sean Murphy takes on the DH role and rookie Drake Baldwin impressively bats fourth, coming off a six-RBI game.

Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns noted the team is looking for outside help to strengthen a depleted bullpen due to significant injuries. He acknowledged the possibility of promoting top pitching prospects Brandon Sproat and Nolan McLean as relievers if trade efforts fail before the July 31 deadline. Sproat has recently thrived with a 23-inning scoreless streak, while McLean boasts a solid 3.08 ERA and 71 strikeouts in Syracuse.

David Stearns stated, "I look at our position-player grouping, and for the most part, I'm pretty pleased with where we are," demonstrating confidence in the lineup despite struggles.
