Preview Roundups
August 02, 2025
LA Dodgers at Tampa Bay 1:10 PM ET
The Los Angeles Dodgers were relatively quiet at Thursday's MLB trade deadline, safe in the knowledge that several injured players would be returning soon.
Baltimore at Chi. Cubs 2:20 PM ET
The Chicago Cubs and Baltimore Orioles have a different outlook on the remainder of the season.
Kansas City at Toronto 3:07 PM ET
After reaping an immediate reward from a trade-deadline deal, the Kansas City Royals are positioned Saturday afternoon to clinch their three-game series against the host Toronto Blue Jays.
Pittsburgh at Colorado 3:10 PM ET
The Pittsburgh Pirates aren't in the postseason hunt, but they do have a reason for optimism every fifth day when Paul Skenes takes the mound.
Detroit at Philadelphia 4:05 PM ET
It's not often a regular-season game carries the weight of history, but Saturday afternoon's matchup between Philadelphia Phillies ace Zack Wheeler and Detroit Tigers star Tarik Skubal just might.
Milwaukee at Washington 4:05 PM ET
William Contreras will look to continue his torrid week when the visiting Milwaukee Brewers play the middle game of their series against the Washington Nationals on Saturday afternoon.
Houston at Boston 4:10 PM ET
Although the Houston Astros locked up three position players before Thursday's trade deadline, shortstop Jeremy Pena may have been the team's best addition this week.
San Francisco at NY Mets 4:10 PM ET
Two teams whose new-look bullpens underwent a trial by fire in the series opener will get a rematch on Saturday afternoon when San Francisco Giants vie for a second consecutive road win over the New York Mets.
Minnesota at Cleveland 4:10 PM ET
Guardians fans made sure that Steven Kwan knew they were happy he was still in Cleveland after he was the subject of trade-deadline speculation.
NY Yankees at Miami 4:10 PM ET
Right-hander Eury Perez, who is coming off a brilliant month, will start on Saturday afternoon as his Miami Marlins try to win another series.
Texas at Seattle 4:10 PM ET
With a rotation featuring the lowest ERA (3.25) in the major leagues, another starter didn't figure to be a priority for the Texas Rangers at the trade deadline.
Atlanta at Cincinnati 7:15 PM ET
It's fitting for a few reasons that the Atlanta Braves and Cincinnati Reds will play in the first Speedway Classic Saturday night at Bristol Motor Speedway.
Arizona at Athletics 10:05 PM ET
Zac Gallen's tenure as the ace of the Arizona Diamondbacks hung in the balance this week as his name repeatedly surfaced in trade speculation.
Chi. White Sox at LA Angels 10:07 PM ET
The Chicago White Sox enter their game Saturday night against the Los Angeles Angels in Anaheim, Calif., with the worst record in the American League at 41-69. Still, under first-year manager Will Venable, these are not the 2024 White Sox, the team that set the modern record for most losses in a season.
St. Louis at San Diego 10:10 PM ET
It didn't take Mason Miller long to contribute to the San Diego Padres' stacked bullpen.
