Phillies fans were looking forward to seeing both when the team’s new closer, Jhoan Duran, would come on to pitch for the first time after being acquired in a July 30 trade with the Twins.

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.

The biggest reason the Yankees were the winners of the MLB trade deadline was their bullpen additions. They picked up Camilo Doval, David Bednar, and Jake Bird. Devin Williams has struggled this year, and Tim Hill has the most appearances in the AL. Refreshing the bullpen was a must, and Brian Cashman did it.

Which were the trades that could provide a jolt in the second half as hopeful contenders prepare for pennant races?
