The Daily Chop: Mike Clevinger rumors, trade rumblings and more

Given the uncertainty of the 2020 season in general, it was unsure what exactly the trade deadline might look like. However, if Sunday was any indication, then you may want to buckle up as we wind down the hours to the 4 p.m. Monday deadline. The Braves added one new starter on Sunday but are reportedly in discussions to do something much bigger.

Atlanta is reportedly one of several teams that are involved in trade discussions for Indians right-hander Mike Clevinger. While the Braves were watching a 10-run lead against the Phillies evaporate, MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand reported that Atlanta was making an aggressive push for Clevinger with discussions centering around outfield prospect Drew Waters per MLB Network’s Jon Morosi.
