Trade deadline week is here, and the news should start coming in fast and furious as Thursday’s 6 pm ET deadline approaches. This is the spot to make your predictions and discuss league wide deals as news emerges. We’ll keep this post pinned to the front page until the deadline passes.
So far the biggest news today has been Bryce Harper getting into it with Rob Manfred in the Phillies locker room over Manfred’s desire for a salary cap. The other big piece of news is no doubt a developing story. Emmanuel Clase, Guardians closer, has become the second Guardians pitcher this year to be investigated for gambling activity on games, joining Luis Ortiz.
