MIAMI — The Yankees are done with Marcus Stroman. Even after not landing a starting pitcher before Thursday’s trade deadline, the Yankees made the decision Friday to cut Stroman, releasing him from the roster and eating the $5-plus million left on his contract. The move comes just two days before Luis Gil is set to return from the IL to …

It was a chaotic deadline day around baseball, and the Orioles were at the center of the flurry. Baltimore pulled off five trades in less than 24 hours, and general manager Mike Elias attempted to extract as much value as possible from a roster that isn’t going to make the postseason. Only one returning player has reached Triple-A. These deals …

This week, the Twins traded: Their most expensive player — someone who was supposed to usher in an era of championship contention; three other position players who combined for more than 1,000 plate appearances this season; arguably their five best relief pitchers; and a starting pitcher. I have no idea what their starting lineup and bullpen alignment will look like …

This year’s MLB Trade Deadline provided an absolute banger for the fans — that is, unless you’re an Atlanta Braves fan, in which we all got to experience what it feels like to be Squidward sitting in his house looking out at Spongebob and Patrick having a lovely time outside (Yes, I just wrote out a description of a classic …

4:59pm: The Marlins also don’t plan to trade Edward Cabrera today, per Alden Gonzalez of ESPN. 4:49pm: The Marlins aren’t trading right-hander Sandy Alcantara today, reports Craig Mish of SportsGrid and the Miami Herald. He’ll stay put in Miami’s rotation down the stretch. An offseason trade or a deal next summer remains a possibility, of course. Alcantara is being paid …

The top of the starting pitching market didn’t kick into gear until a little over a half an hour before the 5 p.m. CT deadline, with the Rangers acquiring right-hander Merrill Kelly from the Diamondbacks. Then deals fell into place in rapid succession. And the Cubs dropped out of the race for a frontline starter, which has been their most …

This year’s MLB trade deadline was another seller’s market, which yielded some of the best prospect returns we’ve seen in years. Teams like the Diamondbacks, Twins, Athletics and Orioles fared extremely well, stocking up on young talent in exchange for controllable veteran players. In terms of contending teams, let’s hear it for the Mariners, who landed two big bats — …
