There is slightly over a week until the MLB trade deadline. Rumors are running rampant as it nears the time for teams to decide if they are going to bolster their roster for a run towards the postseason or if they are going to cut their losses and prepare for the future. Some will be buyers and some will be sellers. That is exactly what Jake and Jordan discuss. They break down each team and project what moves those teams might make. Eugenio Suárez is the biggest name being rumored to be swapping jerseys by next week. Will he be the latest Bronx Bomber or will another team come in and take the star? The Dodgers have had a far less spectacular season, thus far, than many expected, and their pitching depth needs help. Who might they go get to help them on their quest to repeat as World Series champions? The two best teams in baseball are notorious for not doing much at the trade deadline. What kind of moves, if any, will the Milwaukee Brewers and the Detroit Tigers make? 30 teams, more than 30 possibilities and one podcast to cover it all.
Plus, Robert Murray, MLB Insider for FanSided, joins the show. He gives his thoughts on what to watch for as we approach the trade deadline. He also tells the story of the career-altering moment he broke the Rafael Devers trade news.
Don’t forget about our special MLB Trade Deadline Live Show. In just over a week, on July 31, you can join Jake and Jordan live as they cover the final moments of the trade deadline and react to all of the drama that unfolded.
