The 2025 MLB trade deadline is Thursday at 6 p.m. ET. If last year is anything to judge by, Wednesday and Thursday are going to be chaotic, with several teams making last-minute decisions on whether to be buyers, sellers or some hybrid combination of the two.

The 2025 MLB trade deadline arrives at 6 p.m. ET on Thursday, July 31, so teams only have between now and then to make trades involving players on their 40-man rosters. Waiver claims can still happen at a later date, but for trades involving big-leaguers, this is it.

New York Mets corner infielder Mark Vientos is in the midst of a disappointing season, one in which he's failed to build on last year's momentum. Predictably, Vientos has found himself the subject of recent trade rumors leading up to the July 31 deadline -- a dynamic he opted to talk about with reporters on Monday.
