Yankees Predicted to Cut Ties With 25-Year-Old They 'Ruined' by Trade Deadline
Third base for the New York Yankees has been manned by many players this season.
Oswaldo Cabrera started the season there. Jazz Chisholm Jr. took over there after Cabrera's injury. Chisholm was then moved back to second base, leaving Jorbot Vivas and Oswald Peraza as the primary options in the hot corner.

NewPeraza has seen the majority of the work recently, but his time could be coming to an end. The Yankees are reportedly doing their homework on the third base market, and FanSided's Thomas Carannante predicted that Peraza would not be on the 40-man roster by the time the trade deadline arrives.
"All in all, the Yankees ruined Peraza with their preferential treatment of Anthony Volpe years ago," wrote Carannante. "It is what it is. On the other hand, Peraza has also done himself zero favors and has only validated the Yankees' decision to keep running Volpe out there every day. It seemed Peraza's ceiling could've been a valuable infield utility option, especially after Oswaldo Cabrera went down, but instead he's been one of the worst qualified MLB hitters to date. They will not find a trade partner here; it will be a clean DFA to welcome whoever it is that should be able to do far better."
Peraza is slashing .150/.212/.242 this season. The Yankees have World Series aspirations, and they are not going to meet them if they keep trotting Peraza out to play third base.

Orioles RHP Tomoyuki Sugano ponders his future with the trade deadline approaching
BALTIMORE (AP) — There are plenty of reasons why the Baltimore Orioles would love to hold onto Tomoyuki Sugano for the rest of the season. The Japanese right-hander is loved in the clubhouse, rarely misses a start and, most important, knows how to win on the mound. Those qualities also make Sugano quite appealing to a contender looking to upgrade its starting rotation before Friday's trade deadline. Sugano shackled the Colorado Rockies on four hits over six innings in Baltimore's 5-1 victory Sunday. He matched his season high with eight strikeouts and improved to 8-5. Signed to one-year contract in December, Sugano has clearly been a success in his first season in the big leagues after an impressive career in Japan. The question is, will the 35-year-old rookie stay in Baltimore or be traded by the last-place club? Sugano would prefer to stay put, but he's beginning to understand that anything can happen right up until the final minute of the fast-approaching deadline. 'It's obviously my first time. I don't know what's going to happen,' Sugano said through an interpreter after Sunday's game. After a solid start with the Orioles, Sugano struggled in June and was blown out in successive starts against Tampa Bay (June 27) and Texas (July 2). Then, after adjusting his delivery, he gave up just four hits in six innings against the Mets on July 10 to get back on track. On Sunday against the Rockies, he looked particularly sharp in what might have been his final outing with the Orioles. 'We need him,' interim manager Tony Mansolino said. 'When Sugano throws the ball well, he gives us a chance to win. And we need to win games.' So does a team looking to make a run at a pennant or World Series championship. 'If they watched the last three starts, I'd take him,' Mansolino said. 'You watch that Mets start, I'd take him in a heartbeat.' 'He is so well-liked in that room,' Mansolino said. 'The players mess around with him, he messes around with his teammates. He's done it very gracefully.' ___
