MLB rumors: Yankees, Dodgers, Cubs could fight over trade deadline ‘prize'
The post MLB rumors: Yankees, Dodgers, Cubs could fight over trade deadline 'prize' appeared first on ClutchPoints. As MLB teams are still trying to make improvements to their roster with trades, there are certain players who stick out more than others. In this case, it's Sandy Alcantara, who seems to be on the trading block for the Miami Marlins. That means several teams could be looking to add him to their team, according to Bob Nightengale of USA Today. Advertisement 'This was the finest pitcher in baseball in 2022, unanimously winning the Cy Young award. Now, after recovering from Tommy John surgery, he is slowly regaining his form,' Nightengale wrote. 'He is 2-1 with a 2.74 ERA in four starts this month, and the beauty of Alcantara is that he's still under contract through the 2027 season. The price tag will be high, and if no one is willing to meet it, the Marlins will simply hold onto him until this winter.' One of the first teams that could have an interest in Alcantara is the Chicago Cubs, who have been leading the division for some time now and are looking to stay strong. 'They are scouring the market for a starter, keeping a close eye on Alcantara (2 ½ years remaining on his 5-year, $56 million contract), Keller (3 ½ years remaining on his 5-year, $70 million deal) and Luis Severino of the Athletics (2 ½ years remaining on his 3-year, $67 million contract),' Nightengale wrote. Sandy Alcantara is a hot commodity on the trade market The New York Yankees, who are looking for a third baseman or a second baseman, could also be in the running for Alcantara, and it seems like he may be at the top of their list. Advertisement 'Their ultimate prize could be Alcantara, giving them a powerful rotation, particularly when Gerrit Cole returns next year,' Nightengale continued. Last, but not least, the Los Angeles Dodgers are always finding a way to grab talent, no matter how good they are. 'They want another starter, and yes, Alcantara is the man they want. The Dodgers are always looking for bullpen help and would like another late-inning reliever like Rays closer Pete Fairbanks,' Nightengale continued.

Red Sox Trade Idea Cuts Ties With Wilyer Abreu for Cy Young Winner Sandy Alcantara
Red Sox Trade Idea Cuts Ties With Wilyer Abreu for Cy Young Winner Sandy Alcantara originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Rumors have suggested that the Boston Red Sox could move on from outfielder Wilyer Abreu. Abreu, who was playing lights out to start the season, has quieted down a bit recently. He's hitting .252 with 13 home runs. While he's still a valuable piece to the Red Sox, moving on from the Gold Glover makes sense to ensure Roman Anthony daily at-bats. Moving Abreu allows them to do that in an easier manner. Advertisement In a recent trade idea from Patrick McAvoy, the Red Sox would accomplish just that in a deal with the Miami Marlins for right-hander Sandy Alcantara. The Red Sox desperately need pitching, and if they improve over the next few weeks to months, they should be in a position to make the postseason, holding an ace in their rotation if they were to land Alcantara. Boston Red Sox right fielder Wilyer Abreu (52) rounds the bases after hitting a home run during the first inning against the Baltimore Orioles at Fenway DeChiara-Imagn Images Boston Red Sox receive: Right-handed pitcher Sandy Alcantara Miami Marlins receive: Outfielder Abreu and Left-handed pitcher Payton Tolle (Red Sox's No. 15 prospect) 'Again, this is just a hypothetical. Abreu and Jarren Duran both have been mentioned recently as trade candidates. Boston has a surplus of outfield talent so it makes sense. Between the two, Abreu has more years of control and is significantly better defensively. Both of those are arguments to keep him, but that also could bring back a higher return,' he wrote. Advertisement Alcantara hasn't been his normal self during the 2025 campaign, but that's not much of a surprise given he's dealt with injuries. He owns a 6.69 ERA and has struck out just 59 hitters in 74.0 innings. If the Red Sox were to trade for him, the hope would be that he'd figure things out.
