Major League Baseball’s trade deadline has come and gone, bringing with it the inevitable change across the fantasy landscape that it does every year. Unsurprisingly, this year’s deadline was heavy on reliever trades. Counting purely pitchers who were pitching in a relief role before being traded, this trade deadline saw plenty of impact relievers moved.

Philadelphia, PA

LOS ANGELES — In the biggest moment of the Phillies' biggest series in at least a month, Matt Strahm decided to try something new. He was facing National League MVP frontrunner Shohei Ohtani with a three-run lead, two on and two outs in the seventh inning. It was the third Strahm-Ohtani matchup since July 10 and Strahm beat him both times last month with sliders that resulted in a strikeout and groundout.

Welcome back to Buy & Sell, where this week’s theme is Wow, the White Sox are bad! That’s only tangentially relevant to the players I’ll mention here, but I felt like it still needed to be said again, especially since I called Luis Robert Jr. a 10-team sell! Still, there are some opportunities here that are worth looking into in deep leagues and some hot rebound players that can take you to the top in shallow leagues, so let’s get on to the list!

San Francisco, CA

The Giants’ late offseason dealings saw them sign two of the four prominent free agents who lingered on the market late into the offseason, inking Blake Snell on a two-year, $62MM deal and Matt Chapman on a three-year, $54MM pact. Both contracts came with opt-out opportunities this offseason — Chapman’s also has an opt-out opportunity post-2025 — and despite an early slate of injuries for Snell, both are looking like shrewd pickups now.

Giants Interested In Longer-Term Deal With Matt Chapman

Since being traded, Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Austin Hays has solidified his role as an everyday starter. Initially, it was anticipated that Hays would platoon with Brandon Marsh in left field. However, a day after the trade, Phillies manager Rob Thomson indicated Hays would be the starting left fielder. So far Marsh has been primarily playing center field instead of platooning with Johan Rojas. Nick Castellanos being in right field most days has been the most stable part of the Phillies outfield this season. A Hays-Marsh-Castellanos outfield going from left to right will be the standard alignment.
