With almost everybody in a hold, the trade deadline is complicated; many teams are within three games of a playoff spot, causing uncertainty and lack of clear buying or selling decisions.
Only five teams are clearly out of playoff contention, complicating trade decisions further; few standout players are available, raising prices and leading to a stand-pat approach.
The absence of top-tier players like Justin Verlander or Juan Soto hinders significant trade options, contributing to teams being cautious and hesitant in their trade strategies.
