In the NHL, Jordan Binnington's days in St. Louis may be numbered. The Blues appear ready to move on from their Stanley Cup champion goaltender, and the trade market is heating up. Three teams are already emerging as legitimate fits, and whoever lands Binnington gets a proven playoff performer.
Shifting to the hardwood, the Lakers are making a serious push in free agency, and the Knicks are not going to like this one. Los Angeles is projected to outbid New York for a fan-favorite rebounding big man who carries both an NBA championship pedigree and a sixty million dollar price tag. This is exactly the kind of move that reshapes a roster overnight.
And in baseball, Tampa Bay is making a calculated move at the deadline. The Rays are being linked to a trade for Minnesota catcher who's been absolutely mashing this season with a nine forty nine OPS. The Yankees had their eyes on him too, which makes this potential deal even more delicious for the Rays if they can pull it off before New York gets there first.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
