MLB trade deadline Big Board 2.0: Top 75-plus players ahead of Aug. 3 deadline

The Athletic has published its second MLB trade deadline Big Board, ranking 78 players who could be traded before the August 3 deadline. Detroit Tigers pitcher Tarik Skubal remains the top-ranked available player, with Minnesota Twins pitcher Joe Ryan listed as the second-best and considered a more realistic trade target. With 14 days remaining until the deadline and no major trades completed yet, the board is one of three planned publications to track potential moves in the final stretch.
