Cedric Mullins is one of the longest-tenured Orioles. Should the team trade their center fielder at the MLB trade deadline?

The Orioles are open for business as the trade deadline nears but Felix Bautista is off the market after an update on his injured shoulder.

The Tigers acquired right-handers Chris Paddack and Randy Dobnak from the Minnesota Twins on Monday, July 28 — just three days before the MLB trade deadline, which is set for 6 p.m. Thursday, July 31. Although Paddack becomes a free agent after 2025, Dobnak has team options for 2026, 2027 and 2028.

The 2025 MLB trade deadline is Thursday at 6 p.m. ET. If last year is anything to judge by, Wednesday and Thursday are going to be chaotic, with several teams making last-minute decisions on whether to be buyers, sellers or some hybrid combination of the two.

The Los Angeles Dodgers should go after this Baltimore Orioles pitcher to fortify their rotation for this season and beyond.

The Milwaukee Brewers are reportedly interested in Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan O'Hearn after the Danny Jansen trade.

Maybe it's not too late to alter the narrative on the season for the Baltimore Orioles. With the lineup closer to looking the way the club expected it to, there is growing confidence even with the trade deadline looming on Thursday.
