The 2025 MLB trade deadline is Thursday, July 31 at 6 p.m. ET, but there will be plenty of trade talk and transactions that take place beforehand. Here are trade rumors around the sport:

HOUSTON — With a major-league-high nine position players on the injured list — some of whom are weeks away from a return — the Houston Astros are “prioritizing the bats” before next week’s trade deadline, general manager Dana Brown said Thursday.

Major League Baseball's trade deadline, scheduled for July 31, is now just a week away. In other words, it's that blessed (or cursed, depending on your perspective) time of the year when rumors and transactions dominate our coverage.

MLB insider Ken Rosenthal named Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Dustin May as a potential trade chip at the deadline.

The latest rumors possibly reveal how Jose Altuve impacts the Houston Astros' trade plans ahead of the deadline.

Major League Baseball's trade deadline is scheduled for next Thursday, which means teams have less than a week to get their midsummer shopping done. The moves have already started, as the Mariners recently acquired Josh Naylor from the Diamondbacks while the Yankees acquired Ryan McMahon in a trade with the Rockies.

MLB trade deadline action officially kicked off when the Seattle Mariners acquired first baseman Josh Naylor from the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday.
