The Chicago Cubs and Tampa Bay Rays made a significant trade just before the deadline. Isaac Paredes will head to Chicago, and the Rays will receive Christopher Morel and right-handers Hunter Bigge and Ty Johnson in return. This deal addresses both teams' needs and shapes their future rosters and MLB lines.

The New York Mets have officially acquired outfielder Jesse Winker from the Washington Nationals in exchange for right-handed pitching prospect Tyler Stuart, searching for a major improvement to their MLB lines this season.

The Philadelphia Phillies have acquired right-hander Carlos Estevez from the Los Angeles Angels, trading pitching prospects George Klassen and Samuel Aldegheri to Anaheim. This trade enhances the Phillies' bullpen as they gear up for a playoff run. 

The San Diego Padres have acquired right-hander Jason Adam from the Tampa Bay Rays, trading prospects Dylan Lesko, Homer Bush Jr., and J.D. Gonzalez in return.

The Texas Rangers have acquired catcher Carson Kelly from the Detroit Tigers in a trade involving two minor league prospects.
