We're still a few months away from Major League Baseball's trade deadline at the beginning of August, though there seem to be a few obvious names regarding potential trade candidates. There are some players who need to be moved because their teams aren't in a position to win anytime in the near future, and others because they don't make much sense on their current roster. Below, I'm looking at the five most likely players to be traded at the Major League Baseball trade deadline.

Joe Ryan To start things off, there isn't a player in the game who I'd be less surprised to see traded than Joe Ryan. Ryan, who has dealt with an injury to start the year, has been rather decent when he's on the mound. He's posted a 3.

72 ERA, so I'm interested to see what he looks like after this elbow scare. If the Minnesota Twins are any bit serious about changing the future of this organization, it's going to start on the prospect side of things. They absolutely have to move on from Ryan.
