We are just a week into June, but July plans are beginning to bloom as the madness of the Trade Deadline looms. The picture is far from clear across many divisions, but one thing is coming into sharp focus: it’s a seller’s market, especially for starting pitching.

Both have ace-level talent, even if one is struggling more than expected in 2025.
