These 20 players will likely be wearing new unis after Trade Deadline

With the MLB Trade Deadline set for August 3, 2026, writer Mark Feinsand identifies 20 players likely to be traded before the cutoff. An unusually competitive season has seen 24 teams enter Thursday within 6.5 games of a postseason spot, leaving only six teams — the Angels, Athletics, Giants, Mets, Rockies, and Royals — as near-certain sellers. The 20 players listed, including Luis Arraez, come from those six franchises and are expected to be moved to contending teams within the next two weeks.
