MLB Trade Rumors and Updated Landing-Spot Predictions 1 Day Before the 2026 Deadline

Kevin Gausman made what was likely his last start for the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday.
The veteran right-hander is one of the top names on the market and should be dealt.
All of the teams that missed out on Skubal, including the Milwaukee Brewers, Tampa Bay Rays, Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies, should inquire about Gausman, who will be an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season.
The rental shouldn’t be as high as the one for Skubal, but a team still might have to part ways with a quality prospect or two.
MLB Network’s Jon Morosi reported the Blue Jays and Phillies were emerging as trade partners.
Philadelphia needs help in its rotation to support Zack Wheeler and Cristopher Sanchez.
A move for Gausman at a reasonable price would provide a huge boost for the Phillies as they try to secure a playoff spot.
Prediction: Gausman to Phillies
