Though almost all of the big trades in baseball happen during the month of July, there were 28 major-league trades completed between Opening Day and June 30. Though no superstars were moved in that time, many significant players (Fernando Rodney, Bud Norris, James Shields, Chris Coghlan, Kelly Johnson and Jason Grilli, to name a few) were traded. Here's a complete listing of all 28 trades:
