How likely these 10 bubble teams will be MLB trade deadline sellers

How likely these 10 bubble teams will be MLB trade deadline sellers

June 12, 2025 / Liam Redmond /



A potential dud of a trade deadline may need saving by a few “bubble” teams with valuable pieces to sell — that is, if they sell. The downtrodden Rockies, White Sox and Pirates aren’t going to do it, not with Pittsburgh putting a “no sale” sign on ubertalented Paul Skenes, Ryan McMahon at .219 and Luis Robert Jr. still below .200.

Here’s a look at 10 bubble teams, with current chances to sell:

1. Orioles: They had high expectations entering the season, but the current expectation is realism. They won’t trade from their core (Gunnar Henderson, Jackson Holliday, etc.) but have many veterans interesting to contenders — including closer Félix Bautista, starters Zach Eflin and Tomoyuki Sugano, CF Cedric Mullins, and lefty bat Ryan O’Hearn.

Sell chances: 70 percent.
