The Astros clearly have a need for more offense, specifically a left-handed hitter. Here are 10 players available at the MLB trade deadline that would make sense.

In his third MLB start, Yankees' right-hander Cam Schlittler lasted 4.1 innings, yielding three runs on seven hits and four walks, with five strikeouts, in a 4-2 loss to Tampa Bay.

A recent hot streak for Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. has put him back on the radar for a number of contending teams leading up to the trade deadline on Thursday.

With the MLB trade deadline looming, struggling Marlins ace Sandy Alcantara emerges as a potential trade target for the Red Sox, who could gamble on his upside despite a league-worst ERA.

The Chicago Cubs are still searching for a starting pitcher, and one writer believes this package could get the trade done for Joe Ryan.

Cleveland Guardians closer Emmanuel Clase — a rumored MLB trade deadline target — has been placed on paid leave in connection with a sports-gambling investigation, ESPN's Jeff Passan reported Monday. Clase is reportedly on leave through Aug. 31, per The Athletic's Zack Meisel.

Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman and leading trade-deadline target Eugenio Suárez exited Monday night's eventual 5-1 loss to the Detroit Tigers after he was struck on the hand by a 95.6 mph pitch, but X-rays on his left index finger came back negative. He will get more testing Tuesday, he told reporters.
