MLB Rumors: Giants Acquire All-Star Scooter Gennett From Reds
The busiest day of the baseball season is here. MLB's trade deadline is at 4 p.m. ET.
We will know which teams are buyers and which are sellers, as there has been a flurry of moves just a day before the deadline.
Tuesday night saw the Cleveland Indians pitcher Trevor Bauer traded to the Reds in a three-team deal with the Padres.
Outfielder Yasiel Puig went from Cincinnati to Cleveland, with Logan Allen and outfielder Franmil Reyes also heading to the Indians. The Padres received prospect Taylor Trammell from the Reds.
