The Major League Baseball Trade Deadline for 2024 was 6 p.m. ET on July 30. Teams that wanted to bolster their playoff position, improve their postseason prayers, and give themselves even a fighting chance of making a run had to get busy to take care of their needs before the cutoff.
The trading started a week before the deadline, but a deadline adds pressure to front offices to make a move. The trades were coming fast and furious until after the deadline had passed when medicals were cleared, and things became official around baseball.
