The Mets clearly aren’t finished looking for upgrades, with it only a question of how many new players will have been added by the time Thursday’s trade deadline arrives.

Von der Leyen said Friday that she had a good call with Trump and the two had agreed to meet in Scotland to discuss trans-Atlantic trade relations “and how we can keep them strong.” European officials are optimistic that they are nearing agreement on an outline deal that could see the European Union accept 15% baseline tariffs on most goods,

The European Union and the United States could reach a framework deal on trade this weekend, ending months of uncertainty for European industry, EU officials and diplomats said on Friday.

Major League Baseball's trade deadline is scheduled for next Thursday, which means teams have less than a week to get their midsummer shopping done. The moves have already started, as the Mariners recently acquired Josh Naylor from the Diamondbacks while the Yankees acquired Ryan McMahon in a trade with the Rockies.

Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suárez is "almost certain" to be dealt before Thursday's trade deadline, per Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic.

The Philadelphia Phillies are trying to separate themselves from the New York Mets, and they are reportedly entering the race for Eugenio Suárez.
