Stock Up, Stock Down on MLB's Top 2016 Trade Targets

As we enter the final week of June, the MLB trade market is starting to heat up as teams continue to work toward establishing themselves as buyers or sellers.

After a number of front-line arms were on the move last summer, there is a notable lack of starting pitching talent on the block this year. Unless the Atlanta Braves wind up moving Julio Teheran, contenders will have to settle for middle-of-the-rotation help at best.

On the offensive side of things, National League Central bats Jay Bruce, Ryan Braun and Jonathan Lucroy are among the headliners, and the San Diego Padres have a number of intriguing trade chips as they begin the rebuilding process.

Ahead, we take a look at what direction the stock for 10 notable trade targets is trending.

The focus is on players who are expected to be aggressively shopped in July. We kick things off with a list of players who are not yet clear-cut trade bait, a few guys who could be moved but are on the disabled list and some honorable mentions before highlighting the top 10 trade chips.
