What happened: Brian Cashman has made more than 100 trade-deadline deals across nearly three decades as Yankees general manager, per Joel Sherman. Sherman points to that history as a signal for what Cashman could do in the coming weeks with the deadline approaching.

Why it matters: Cashman's track record gives the front office a wide range of precedent to draw on as it shapes this year's deadline approach. The Yankees enter the stretch at 48-40, on a one-game losing streak after going 4-1 in their last five.

What to watch: The Yankees host the Dodgers on Sunday, a scoreless game before first pitch, with Los Angeles listed as favorites and the total set at 8.5.
