The non-waiver trade deadline is in the rearview mirror, but MLB teams can continue making deals until August 31st. What kind of trades can we expect in August? Of course, last year brought us the massive blockbuster between the Dodgers and Red Sox that sent Adrian Gonzalez, Carl Crawford, Josh Beckett, and Nick Punto to L.A. and brought James Loney, Ivan De Jesus, Allen Webster, and two players to be named later who became Rubby De La Rosa and Jerry Sands. Let's take a look back at the rest of last August's notable deals using MLBTR's Transaction Tracker to get an idea of what might be in store..
