<p>The clock is ticking and MLB teams have one more full day to make deals before the arrival of the trade deadline.</p>
<p>Whether it's a big bat or a bullpen arm, this year's playoff hopefuls are looking to find that missing piece that could put them over the top in the postseason. There are still several difference-makers on the market so baseball fans can expect a flurry of activity as the deadline (6 p.m. ET on Thursday) approaches.</p>
<p>Perhaps today is the day we see starting pitchers Sandy Alcantara, Edward Cabrera, Merrill Kelly or Zac Gallen on the move.</p>
<p>Here's a look at all the news and updates from Wednesday, July 30:</p>
<p>Marlins pitcher Edward Cabrera has never pitched 100 innings in a single major league season, but he's already up to 94 innings in 2025 as the MLB trade deadline draws near.MLB trade deadline candidates</p>
<p>Here's some of the top players who could be on the move ahead of Thursday's deadline</p>
<p>Starting pitchers: Sandy Alcantara (Marlins), Charlie Morton (Orioles), Edward Cabrera (Marlins, Merrill Kelly (D'backs), Zac Gallen (D'backs), Mitch Keller (Pirates), Shane Bieber (Guardians), Joe Ryan (Twins), Dylan Cease (Padres)</p>
<p>Relief pitchers: Ryan Helsley (Cardinals), Jhoan Duran (Twins), Griffin Jax (Twins), Raisel Iglesias (Braves), David Bednar (Pirates)</p>
<p>Hitters: 3B Eugenio Suarez (D'backs), OF Luis Robert (White Sox), OF Cedric Mullins (Orioles), OF Ramon Laureano, 3B Nolan Arenado (Cardinals), OF Steven Kwan (Guardians), DH Marcell Ozuna (Braves).</p>
<p>Eugenio Suárez trade rumors: D'backs slugger returns to lineup</p>
<p>Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suárez, who missed the game on July 29 after being hit in the right index finger with a pitch in the ninth inning on July 28, was back in the lineup as the DH for July 30.</p>
<p>Had the game been tight, Suárez would have been able to pinch-hit on July 29, Lovullo said. Suárez, not wearing anything protective over his finger or hand, took swings with a bat and said he felt good enough to hit.</p>
<p>Suárez had three different bone scans done on his finger, and none revealed a broken bone. Like Merrill Kelly and Zac Gallen, his hours as a Diamondback could be numbered, as Suárez is still being talked about as a candidate to be traded. — José M. Romero Arizona Republic</p>
<p>When is MLB trade deadline?</p>
<p>Major League Baseball's 2025 trade deadline is scheduled for 6 p.m. ET on Thursday, July 31.</p>
<p>Carlos Correa back to Houston?</p>
<p>The Houston Astros are exploring the possibility of acquiring Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa, a high-ranking executive told USA TODAY Sports. The possibility of Correa's potential return is fascinating considering he was a homegrown product and led the Astros to four division titles, three pennants and a World Series title before leaving as a free agent after the 2021 season.</p>
<p>In need of a third baseman with starter Isaac Paredes potentially out for the rest of the season, the Astros are also interested in Nolan Arenado of the Cardinals and Eugenio Suárez of the Diamondbacks. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity since trade talks are ongoing.</p>
<p>Money could be a factor in their ultimate decision. Suárez is in the final year of his seven-year, $66 million contract, while Correa and Arenado have several years left on their current deals -- and would push them past the luxury tax threshold.</p>
<p>Austin Slater to Yankees in trade with White Sox</p>
<p>Chicago White Sox outfielder Austin Slater is headed to the Bronx. According to Jack Curry of YES Network, the Yankees have traded for Slater, 32, on Wednesday, on the eve of MLB's trade deadline.</p>
<p>Before Thursday's 6 p.m. deadline the Yankees will be actively seeking to add a starting pitcher and multiple relievers. So far, the Yankees' three trades during this period have all been for offensive players – third baseman Ryan McMahon, utility player Amed Rosario and now Slater.</p>
<p>Slater could be used in a left field platoon with switch-hitting Jasson Dominguez, who has struggled hitting against left-handed pitching. In 77 plate appearances this year against lefty pitching, Slater has posted an .859 OPS. All five of his home runs this season have been hit against left-handed pitching. – Pete Caldera, NorthJersey.com</p>
<p>Orioles still have more trade chips</p>
<p>Even after dealing relievers Seranthony Dominguez, Gergory Soto and Bryan Baker, the Baltimore Orioles may still have more trades up their sleeve.</p>
<p>Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports the Milwaukee Brewers are interested in All-Star 1B/OF Ryan O'Hearn, who's hitting .283/.374/.456 this season. They could use O'Hearn – who mashes right-handed pitchers – as a platoon partner for Andrew Vaughn while regular first baseman Rhys Hoskins is on the injured list. O'Hearn is a free agent at the end of the 2025 season.</p>
<p>Also, the New York Mets are potentially interested in longtime Oriole Cedric Mullins to fill a hole in center field. ESPN's Jesse Rogers recently reported the Mets are "keeping an eye on" Luis Robert of the Chicago White Sox and Mullins for a potential deal.</p>
<p>USA TODAY Sports' Bob Nightengale has previously reported that the White Sox want third baseman Mark Vientos from the Mets in any deal for Robert. The Orioles, flush with position players, would likely want pitching in return for Mullins.</p>
<p>Seranthony Dominguez switches dugouts in mid-doubleheader trade</p>
<p>It was late in the evening and Seranthony Dominguez was standing in the same dank hallway he'd strolled down hours before, when the rarest of baseball oddities – a trade consummated by two teams between games of their doubleheader – transformed him from a last-place Baltimore Oriole to a frontrunning Toronto Blue Jay.</p>
<p>Dominguez endured one of the longest and strangest days a ballplayer can have, but when it comes to the trading deadline, there are far worse fates than leaping four spots in the standings and sleeping in your own bed the night you're dealt.</p>
<p>"It's been kind of crazy," says Dominguez after pitching a scoreless seventh inning in his Toronto debut, a 3-2 loss to his old Baltimore teammates. "I wake up today and come to play for the Orioles and after the first game, I'm sitting there and hanging out with the guys and they call me and tell me, 'Hey, we got you traded. Go to the next dugout.' " – Gabe Lacques, USA TODAY</p>

<p>Eugenio Suárez to Tigers? Gleyber Torres would welcome trade</p>
<p>The Tigers are one of many teams interested in acquiring Eugenio Suárez from the Diamondbacks before the MLB trade deadline, set for 6 p.m. Thursday, July 31. Other teams in the mix include the Cincinnati Reds, Chicago Cubs, Milwaukee Brewers, Philadelphia Phillies and Seattle Mariners.</p>
<p>"If he comes here at some point, it's going to be awesome," said Torres, a former teammates of Suárez with Team Venezuela in the World Baseball Classic. "He treats people the right way. He's easy to talk to. He always wants to help the players. It would be a really, really good addition for us."</p>
<p>Said Torres: "I think he's a better person than player. I have a really good relationship with him. He is a humble guy, an awesome person. I've known him for many years. Our relationship is really good."</p>
<p>Suárez has said he wants to play for the Tigers. The Tigers signed Suárez out of Venezuela for a $10,000 bonus during the 2008 international signing period. He made his MLB debut with the Tigers in 2014. After 85 games, the Tigers traded Suárez to the Reds. – Evan Petzold, Detroit Free Press</p>
<p>Brewers' Danny Jansen trade has catcher back in Wisconsin</p>
<p>Not so long ago, members of the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers lived in the home young Danny Jansen shared with his family, just a bike ride away from Fox Cities Stadium in Appleton. In a twist of fate, it was a Timber Rattlers player sent to another organization who brought Jansen back to Wisconsin.</p>
<p>Jansen, 30, joined the Brewers on July 29, one day after Milwaukee consummated a deal with the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for Class A infielder Jadher Areinamo. The catcher Jansen, an alumnus of Appleton West and part of a former Timber Rattlers host family, now finds himself with his fourth team in the span of a year after getting dealt on back-to-back trade deadlines.</p>
<p>"Definitely surprised at the news at first," said Jansen, who has served as the Rays primary catcher in 2025. "Hearing that it's for the Brewers is exciting. Obviously, the Brewers have been playing awesome baseball. Definitely being close to home where my wife and I live, as well, is exciting. Being part of an awesome clubhouse, as I've heard, and just competing with these guys." – JR Radcliffe, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel</p>
