With the MLB trade deadline two weeks away, Ken Rosenthal decided to drop his latest intel following the All-Star break. The Baltimore Orioles remain at the center of all deadline discussions, assuming they choose to sell. The Orioles have two rental bats--Ryan O'Hearn and Cedric Mullins--who figure to be moved, but Rosenthal notes that two pitchers are gaining attention.
"Baltimore Orioles right-hander Charlie Morton and left-hander Trevor Rogers are examples of how quickly a player’s trajectory – and trade value – might change."
Since May 14, Morton has been one of the best pitchers in the American League.
