4/24/25 | Chicago Cubs Top Prospect's Dominant Start Could Lead to Promotion Soon. The Chicago Cubs entered the offseason seen by many as a team who was likely to add pitching help. While they did add a significant number of players, none of them were seen as the huge splash that fans were looking for, especially in the starting rotation. As massive deals kept coming off the board and the big names disappeared, the Cubs stood pat and believed in what they had in the building already in addition to some budget adds. A season-ending injury to left-handed ace Justin Steele puts Chicago in a spot where they could be desperate to add an arm at the trade deadline.

4/20/25 | Angels Could Trade Key Pitcher to Needy National League Squad. The Los Angeles Angels are off to a .500 start to the season and are looking to get out of the shadow cast from last year's 99-loss total. As the Halos look to get back in the contending conversation this season, a trade for an All-Star pitcher from a National League contender would likely keep them competitive when he heals next season.
