MLB Trade Deadline Recap: Chaos & Contenders

The MLB trade deadline did not disappoint. Let’s break down the biggest waves made before the buzzer:

Blockbuster Moves

• Carlos Correa Traded: The Twins finally pulled the trigger, sending Correa to the Astros in a huge move that signals a rebuild in Minnesota and a big swing for Houston's playoff run.

• Eugenio Suárez to Seattle: After holding out, the Mariners landed Suárez from the Diamondbacks. His 36 home runs and veteran presence could be the power spark they need in a tight AL West.

Selling Season

• D-backs Clean House: Arizona shipped off Josh Naylor, Randal Grichuk, Suárez and others — clearly hitting the reset button for 2026.

• Twins Join the Fire Sale: With Correa gone among 9 others off their 25 man roster, Minnesota seems to be punting this season and stacking assets.

Several contenders bulked up, while others turned the page. One thing’s for sure—the postseason race just got a lot more interesting.
