The Detroit Tigers, previously pessimistic with a 52-57 record before the trade deadline, made significant moves, including sending Jack Flaherty to the Dodgers. Surprisingly, they've turned things around, winning 11 of their last 14 games and securing a wild-card spot.
In stark contrast, the Arizona Diamondbacks suffered a historic collapse against the Milwaukee Brewers, letting an 8-0 lead slip away. Manager Torey Lovullo expressed frustration with his bullpen.
The Cincinnati Reds parted ways with manager David Bell, among other managerial changes. Meanwhile, the Chicago White Sox matched the '62 Mets' record for losses, potentially affecting playoff hopes for other teams.
