The trade deadline is rapidly approaching and as the Blue Jays still sit quite a few games outside of a playoff position, they will likely be sellers at the deadline.
According to reports, the Jays have no plan on moving Vladimir Guerrero or Bo Bichette but are taking calls on their players with expiring contracts. One player that stands out as he could fetch a decent return in reliever Trevor Richards.

Richards has been impressive for the Jays this season with a 2.57 ERA in 42 innings and could likely help give a contender an extra push in the playoffs. While the Blue Jays could probably get a solid return, with the current state of their bullpen, losing Richards will be a big blow.
