MLB's Emmanuel Clase Announcement Just Upended the Trade Deadline originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Several MLB contenders are pining to trade for a high-leverage reliever by Thursday's trade deadline, including the Yankees, Mets, Phillies, Brewers, and Dodgers.

Cleveland Guardians' closer Emmanuel Clase was placed on leave, and it is sure to affect the reliever market for Thursday's deadline.

Emmanuel Clase will be sidelined for at least a month, along with Luis Ortiz. Does that change how the Guardians approach the MLB trade deadline?
