Two months into the regular season, the boys start to separate from the men. Here are some MLB Trade Rumors that should start to pique your interest.

As we conclude the second month of the season, teams will start to reevaluate their standing within their divisions. As a result, MLB trade rumors will begin to emerge as sellers work to substitute veterans with prospects or expiring contracts in an effort to rebuild for the future.

Some deals have already taken place, like the Toronto Blue Jays trading Kevin Pillar to the San Francisco Giants. The same Blue Jays have also been the subject of rumors speculating that the team would be willing to trade veterans Marcus Stroman, Justin Smoak, and Aaron Sanchez.

Even the New York Yankees have been the subject of early season trades when they acquired Cameron Maybin from the Cleveland Indians for cash considerations.

As the season rolls on, the rumors will only intensify and as the contenders start to separate from the pretenders. It will be interesting to see which players end up where and what impact they’ll have on their new homes.

With that being said, let’s take a look at which pitchers we should start to see on the market.
