As the MLB Trade Deadline approaches, several teams are evaluating their strategies, with the Red Sox likely to sell key assets, the Mets avoiding a fire sale, and the Yankees targeting specific roster improvements.

• Red Sox are likely to sell Sonny Gray and Aroldis Chapman due to poor season performance
• Mets are not expected to do a fire sale despite poor performance, focusing on maintaining playoff chances
• Yankees may target a right-handed catcher and bullpen help without overreacting to Aaron Judge's injury
• Tarik Skubal has a 60-40 chance of being traded depending on Tigers' performance
• White Sox may add players under control for the stretch run but not trade top prospects
• Phillies will focus on outfield and bullpen additions ahead of Trade Deadline
