The Major League Baseball trade deadline is 6 p.m. ET this coming Thursday, July 31, and the action is beginning to pick up. This past weekend we saw Josh Naylor go to the Mariners and Ryan McMahon go to the Yankees,

Walking the line between buying and selling, the Rays on Monday were working toward a trade that would send catcher Danny Jansen to the Brewers and a second deal that would land catcher Nick Fortes from the Marlins.

The Tampa Bay Rays got younger at catcher Monday, using a pair of reported trades to swap Danny Jansen out for Nick Fortes.

The Brewers dropped their second straight to the Marlins, leaving them with their first series loss since early July.

The Marlins have been on such a strong run over the last month-plus, not even the team that entered this weekend series with the best record in the Major Leagues has slowed them down.

Heriberto Hernandez hit a go-ahead three-run homer and the Miami Marlins beat the Milwaukee Brewers 7-4 Agustín Ramírez and Dane Myers also homered for the Marlins in their fourth straight win.

The Detroit Tigers may have an edge over the Milwaukee Brewers and other suitors for Arizona Diamondbacks slugger Eugenio Suárez.
