The latest Jacob deGrom update suggests he is nearing an injury return, something the Texas Rangers will consider before the trade deadline. deGrom has missed the entire 2024 season so far as he recovers from 2023 Tommy John surgery. The Rangers right-hander is getting fairly close to returning to the rotation. Rangers manager Bruce Bochy recently revealed that deGrom will join the team for their upcoming series against the St. Louis Cardinals on the road, per Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News. deGrom will reportedly throw two more bullpens before facing hitters.

The Mets and Yankees acquired nine players in these deadline days, and if you’ve heard of five of them, consider yourself a Grade A baseball aficionado.

The Yankees and Mets worked around the margins, making incremental improvements here and there. And they still wound up outdoing most on a dud of a deadline.

The Yankees acquired the one headline-grabber to come here, the energetic and versatile Jazz Chisholm Jr., and even he came with exactly a 101 OPS-plus, almost exactly league average (but the suspicion is he’ll be much better than that now that he’s in pinstripes). 

Beyond that, it was mostly...

For the second time in three days, Francisco Alvarez was on the bench, but this wasn’t about rest. 

The young catcher is dealing with a nagging left shoulder issue he has felt for a few days, according to manager Carlos Mendoza.

Pitching wins championships. It’s a cliché, but it’s a cliché for a reason: It’s true, and everyone knows it. It’s why the best available pitchers can cost such a premium at the trade deadline. So, what if there were a way for a team to improve its pitching staff without trading for a pitcher? It’s easier said than done, but the Red Sox and Rangers are hoping they pulled it off after acquiring new catchers to help them over the final two months of the season.

The team rounded out their trade deadline by adding Mark Leiter Jr. from the Chicago Cubs and Enyel De Los Santos from the San Diego Padres. However, the Yankees “backed out of a preliminary trade agreement” with the Detroit Tigers for Jack Flaherty due to medical concerns.

MLB Trade Rumors | Steve Adams: Two years ago, the Yankees made a surprising blockbuster deal at the trade deadline, sending starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery to the St. Louis Cardinals for injured center fielder Harrison Bader, a deal from one which the only positive for the Yankees was that Monty was an instrumental part of the Rangers’ victory over the Houston Astros in last year’s ALCS. With a packed NL Wild Card race meaning that there are very true few sellers at this deadline, Brian Cashman has considered returning to the well again, as he has floated Nestor Cortes in trade talks. The lefty has been struggling of late, and has been absolutely dreadful on the road, but has overall put together solid numbers this season.

Around the Empire: Yankees news - 7/30/24

The price for a quality MLB starting pitcher is at a significant high these days, especially after the Astros gave up three quality young prospects to acquire Yusei Kikuchi—he of the 4-9 record and the 4.75 ERA—from the Blue Jays. But a Yankees trade needs to produce a starter anyway, if this roster that has World Series potential is to be pushed over the edge.
