Next month's Major League Baseball Trade Deadline suffered a major shakeup thanks to a highly-coveted starting pitcher hitting the injured list.
Next month's MLB Trade Deadline has taken a hit.More news: AL East Team Summons Top Prospect, Then Loses Him to PED SuspensionJesús Luzardo, a left-handed pitcher for the Miami Marlins who was expected to be one of the most sought-after players at the deadline, has a lumbar stress reaction in his lower back.
While his numbers have gone down as the Marlins have become one of MLB's worst teams, the intrigue as a trade piece has not. Luzardo is arbitration-eligible this offseason and next, and would have been one of the most sought-after trade pieces at this year's deadline. However, that ship has likely now sailed.With Luzardo out until mid-August at the earliest, he will almost certainly remain with the Marlins past the deadline.
