Major League Baseball's trade deadline, set for July 31, is now less than a week away. That means deals are starting to be made -- the Mariners added Josh Naylor on Thursday night, while the Yankees grabbed Ryan McMahon on Friday -- and that this is the opportune time to refresh our trade candidate rankings.

The Mets are acquiring Orioles left-handed reliever Gregory Soto, according to multiple reports on July 25. The Mets are sending pitching prospects Wellington Aracena and Cameron Foster to the Orioles in the deal, according to Andy Martino of SNY.

The annual MLB trade deadline not only impacts the final two months of the current season, but it also has a longer-lasting impact in the form of the prospect talent that is sent the other way by contenders.
