Sure, the non-waiver trade deadline is behind us. But there is still a way for clubs to deal to add depth in August.
Even though Major League Baseball's July 31 non-waiver trade deadline has passed, there will likely still be a number of players dealt before the end of the season. Teams can still make trades over the next few weeks, but the rules are not as simple.
Starting on August 1, each club can place a player on waivers. Any player that can potentially be dealt could be placed on waivers, and if the player is claimed, the organization can pull the player back without losing the player.
