What happened: MLB.com published a roundup of 10 players who could be moved this summer, pairing each candidate with the clubs that might pursue him. The piece weighs roster fit and need rather than reporting any completed deal.

Why it matters: With the trade deadline approaching, contenders and sellers are starting to define their markets. The names being floated signal how rosters could reshuffle for the stretch run and which teams may buy or sell.

What to watch: Watch which clubs publicly declare as buyers or sellers as the deadline nears, and whether any of the listed candidates is the first to actually move.
