## Resource

The MLB trade frenzy is in full swing as the All-Star break ends, with the Astros pulling off a shocker—sending Lance McCullers Jr. and Colton Gordon to the Brewers for Jadyn Fielder, Prince Fielder’s son. It’s a savvy cost-cutting move as McCullers battles injuries and a hefty contract. With the deadline just three weeks away, Houston may be gearing up to unload more assets. Meanwhile, the Padres, at 48-48 and chasing a wild card, are staying aggressive under AJ Preller—rumors swirl about trading Mason Miller to the Yankees, but San Diego won’t take cheap offers. The Braves, reeling from injuries and rotation woes, are desperate for a starting pitcher and are linked to top arms. With the deadline looming, expect fireworks as teams scramble to reshape their rosters for the playoffs. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
