The 2026 FanGraphs Trade Deadline Roundup

Rick Osentoski-USA TODAY Sports Tarik Skubal is a Dodger! Freddy Peralta is a Ray! Luis García Jr. is a Yankee! The 2026 trade deadline is today at 6 PM ET, and we’ve already seen a blockbuster. To help you keep track of all the activity, I’ve rounded up all of our deadline pieces in one place. You’ll find the broader preview pieces listed first, followed by links to RotoGraphs’ Fantasy Impact Trade Tracker, useful site tools, and of course, a team-by-team listing of the transaction breakdowns that involve your favorite squad, either as buyers or sellers. I’ll update the roundup as more deadline analysis goes live. All of the pieces linked below took time and resources to produce. If you enjoy our coverage of the trade deadline and are in a position to do so, we hope you’ll sign up for a FanGraphs Membership.
