  • Ken’s great but…

    Ditch Alanna Rizzo who’s an unabashed Dodgers cheerleader. She’s also just not very informed. I’m assuming Ken is being told by higher ups that he has to do the show with her because I can’t imagine why a seasoned guy would hitch his wagon to such a lightweight.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Blue Jays and Orioles Trade Deadline Pressure, Tarik Skubal Market, Luis Arraez Trade Value
Q: What will it take to acquire Luis Arraez for the Yankees?
Arraez's trade value hinges on the Giants' demand for Major League-ready talent or players with a clear path to contributing soon; teams will need to balance immediate impact with future potential, and the Yankees may not be the perfect match given positional fit and strategic goals.
Tarik Skubal trade likelihood, Red Sox-Nats trade, Astros buying, Hunter Goodman defense questions
Q: What will the Diamondbacks do?
The Diamondbacks are viewed as a sleepy but solid contender likely to add at first base and possibly bolster the rotation or bullpen, with a preference for a balanced upgrade rather than a full teardown.
Tarik Skubal trade likelihood, Red Sox-Nats trade, Astros buying, Hunter Goodman defense questions
Q: If not Skubal for the Brewers, then who would be a fit?
Possible innings-eating pitchers like Sandy Alcantara or Freddie Peralta are contemplated as upgrades for the Brewers, but the host acknowledges it's speculative and depends on availability and fit with the rest of the pitching staff.
Tarik Skubal trade likelihood, Red Sox-Nats trade, Astros buying, Hunter Goodman defense questions
Q: Are the Padres buyers or sellers?
The host suggests a nuanced approach: expected to be both, as AJ Preller aims to improve the team while potentially trading off parts; Mason Miller could be on the table, but not necessarily, depending on the right offer and playoff pursuit.
Trade market updates on starting pitching, Dylan Cease’s no-hit bid, Jared Jones pulled from perfection
Q: What is the overarching takeaway about the current approach to starting-pitcher usage?
The discussion centers on a systemic approach to protecting arms and managing workloads, while acknowledging demand for deeper appearances and the tension with fans who want to see more prolonged starts.
