June 4 — Correa, 17, is selected first overall in the MLB draft, the first draft pick of the new Astros regime of owner Jim Crane and general manager Jeff Luhnow. He also becomes the highest-drafted player from Puerto Rico, surpassing Ramon Castro, whom the Astros picked 17th overall in 1994.

The 2025 MLB trade deadline was one of the most active in recent memory, and while there was no true superstar-caliber player changing hands, some major trades went down ahead of the annual deadline.
