Brock Burke and Reds prepare for possible trade before deadline
Summary

With the MLB trade deadline approaching, Brock Burke and six other Cincinnati Reds free agents are awaiting potential moves. Burke, who has had a strong season with a 2.52 ERA in 56 appearances, might be a key trade asset. He expressed readiness for a potential trade, having been dealt twice previously. The Reds have seen increased activity in the trade market, especially after several high-profile pitcher trades. Burke's recent performance, including a no-hit inning against the Pirates, adds to his appeal as a reliever.
