Trade predictions are flying all over the place with the deadline approaching. One former general manager believes this three-team trade could benefit everyone.

Arraez is on a one-year, $14 million deal and is set to hit the free agency market at the end of the season. For that reason alone, the Padres may look to trade him. The Athletic also believes that's the case, naming some interesting trade scenarios that could play out for the left-handed hitter.

The Boston Red Sox have been talked about plenty ahead of the trade deadline with nothing really to show for it yet. That isn’t surprising. The trade deadline is still over a week away and will pass on July 31st.

The San Diego Padres have been closely linked to Jarren Duran for months now. Could they finally make a deal come to fruition?

The Boston Red Sox have turned their season around and have put themselves in a position to be buyers at next week's trade deadline. Unlike many buyers, they have an All-Star on their roster they can trade.
