Trade Deadline Outlook: San Diego Padres

The Padres might have the widest range of outcomes this deadline. They have the sport’s most unpredictable baseball operations leader.

Trade Deadline Outlook: Chicago White Sox

The White Sox endured 101 losses in 2023, 121 losses in 2024 (setting a modern record), and 102 losses in 2025.  Getting even into the 90-loss range would’ve represented a step in the right direction for the rebuilding club, yet the Sox have blown away all expectations by sitting atop the AL Central.  The South […]
