ESPN's Alden Gonzalez proposed the New York Mets trade shortstop Francisco Lindor to the New York Yankees ahead of the deadline.

This New York Yankees prospect the New York Mets drafted first is one to steal in a Tyrone Taylor trade.

Yankees reliever Paul Blackburn has found a role this season after a tumultuous run with the crosstown rival Mets. In his first full season with the Yankees, Blackburn has a 2.00 ERA in 33 relief appearances and two starts.

The Chicago White Sox continue to add at the trade deadline. A day after the team picked up starter Luis Castillo from the Seattle Mariners, the White Sox also acquired reliever Huascar Brazobán from the New York Mets.
