With the MLB trade deadline set to take place on July 31st, for non-waiver trades, contenders are going to be eager to add final pieces for the stretch run. The Diamondbacks have been listed as as suitor for multiple players at this point (Manny Machado, Zach Britton), but have only been involved in smaller deals to date. They acquired Jon Jay earlier this year, before swinging a deal with the Tampa Bay Rays to bring in Matt Andriese. Could something more significant be on the horizon?
And if it is, is it something that’ll be significant, or will we only see smaller tweaks to a roster that has remained in contention all year?
