Freddy Peralta, Foster Griffin and Casey Mize all start for their respective teams today in their last outings before Mo Via @Feinsand on X

What happened: The move was precautionary and not injury-related. Feinsand included Casey Mize, Freddy Peralta and Foster Griffin among three starters viewed as likely to change clubs.

Why it matters: Holding Mize out protects his availability while trade talks proceed. Griffin can become a free agent after the season, while Peralta has three months remaining on his contract.

By the numbers: Griffin entered deadline week 10-2 with a 2.77 ERA in 19 starts.

What to watch: Mize is scheduled to start Tuesday if he remains with his club. The trade window closes Monday, Aug. 3, at 6 p.m. ET.
