The San Diego Padres and Philadelphia Phillies were among the teams who made major moves in advance of Thursday's trade deadline with an eye on winning a World Series in a couple months.

A ndrew Chafin, a left-handed relief pitcher now in his 12th MLB season, offered a quick jab upon learning of a trade from the Detroit Tigers to the Texas Rangers last July. "At least it's not California," Chafin said before leaving Detroit's clubhouse en route for Arlington. Chafin might regret that remark one year later.

After a wild final day, the 2025 MLB trade deadline is in the books. The San Diego Padres and Houston Astros made surprising moves that rocked the deadline. The Seattle Mariners went big in their quest for the first World Series trip in franchise history. And the Minnesota Twins, well, left us scrambling to see who is still left on their roster.
