Trevor Bauer Could Be Traded Before the Deadline
5 years agoCleveland Indians starting pitcher Trevor Bauer could be traded before the July 31 trade deadline. According to The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal, members of the Cleveland front office are expected to be "aggressive listeners" on a Bauer trade. Cleveland has been playing well lately and they are currently in a Wild Card position, so it may be hard to move one of their better starting pitchers when they don't have much pitching depth to begin with. They do have several other needs, however, particularly in the outfield, and Bauer would certainly fetch a strong return in a trade. With Corey Kluber and Danny Salazar expected to rejoin the rotation in the second half, perhaps Cleveland will move forward with dealing Bauer if they receive an offer that improves their offense.
