Actual Major League Baseball trade rumors won't start percolating for another few weeks, but it's at this point in the season—two months in with two months to go until the deadline—when we can realistically begin playing "roster doctor" by identifying biggest flaws among the top contenders.

We'll have to wait to find out which teams will be sellers and what sort of talent will be on the trade block, but we already know the Los Angeles Dodgers will be searching for a shortstop, the New York Yankees will be shopping for a bullpen and the Texas Rangers would benefit from a bullpen overhaul.

Contenders on this list are the 10 teams who entered play on Sunday with +2000 or better odds of winning the World Series, per DraftKings.

Not appearing on this list doesn't mean we've written off the Orioles, Diamondbacks or Brewers as "pretenders." It's simply where the line was drawn in the sand.

Teams are presented in ascending order of those World Series odds.

Statistics current through the start of play Sunday.

 

Minnesota Twins

World Series Odds: +2000

Biggest Flaw: Health on Offense

Second baseman Jorge Polanco spent the first three weeks of the season on the IL, played 23 games and is injured again.

Nick Gordon, Trevor Larnach and Max Kepler are also currently on the IL.

Kyle Farmer missed a chunk of the season after getting hit in the face with a pitch. Joey Gallo had a brief IL stint of his own early in the year. Alex Kirilloff missed the first five weeks. Royce Lewis is just now eligible to return after opening the year on the 60-day IL.

By what can only be considered a miracle with his injury history, Byron Buxton hasn't dealt with any major injury yet this season and is actually leading the Twins in plate appearances. But this lineup has been devoured by the injury bug, yet to produce even one hitter who currently has a bWAR or fWAR north of 1.0.

You can't just trade for health, of course, but the Twins would benefit from bringing in another utilityman to help combat the impact of the injury bug.

Perhaps Minnesota could convince Cincinnati to part with Nick Senzel if and when it's finally ready to call up Elly De La Cruz rather than continuing to watch him go viral every few days for annihilating yet another baseball in Louisville. Senzel has played second, third, left, center and right thus far this season and could become the everyday third baseman or left fielder for the Twins.
