MLB Trade Rumors: Nationals Are Telling Teams Bryce Harper Is Available

Which contending teams will shake up their roster and make a deal before tomorrow's trade deadline?

The MLB trade deadline is rapidly approaching and there have already been a ton of deals.

From Cole Hamels to Asdrubal Cabrera to Mike Moustakas, plenty of big names have been traded over the last few days and there's always a chance another top player could be on the move soon.

The Rays are still talking with teams interested in starting pitcher Chris Archer and Orioles centerfielder Adam Jones could be on his way out of Baltimore.

Take a look at all the potential moves that could go down before July 31.

• The Braves and Rangers have discussed a trade for third baseman Adrian Beltre but it's still unclear if there's enough momentum to complete the deal before the trade deadline. Beltre favors a deal to the Red Sox, Astros or possibly Indians. (Jon Paul Morosi, MLB.com)

• League rivals are under the impression that the Nationals do not actually have any plans or intentions of trading Bryce Harper within the next day.

• The San Francisco Giants are unlikely to pivot and trade Madison Bumgarner, but Andrew McCutchen and lefty relievers such as Will Smith and Tony Watson could be looked at as trade assets. (Joel Sherman, New York Post)
