1
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 1: Hi, I know it, never about it. Welcome to mas

2
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 1: Territory brought to you about the Foul Territory Network. Hope

3
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 1: you're all having a good lungstright now. I know this

4
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 1: is a little surprising. I'm coming on here midday. We

5
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,600
Speaker 1: are still gonna be going live for the postgame show tonight,

6
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: so be on the lookout for that after the Red

7
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: Sox Phillies game tonight. But we had some news come

8
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:35,840
Speaker 1: across the desk last night, a few little rumors, few

9
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 1: little juicy tidbits that I wanted to dive into, because

10
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 1: if I talk about all that stuff later tonight, it's

11
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 1: gonna take forever for that episode, so I'd rather just

12
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,480
Speaker 1: do it in a separate episode. I'll take a couple

13
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: of clips from this as well. I'll upload them as

14
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 1: separate videos if you want to get more of a

15
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 1: quick fill at some point later on today. But we

16
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: do have something on first base, Alex Spear putting out

17
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 1: an article yesterday on the Boston Globe Jaron Duran continues

18
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: to be in the rumor mill. That man cannot escape

19
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,959
Speaker 1: the rumor mill, no matter what he does, he just

20
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: can't get out of it. And then we also got

21
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: ESPN coming out with their top fifty trade deadline candidates.

22
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 1: Few little things from Kylie McDaniel in there as well.

23
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: He put out his own article talking about the outfield

24
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: surplus with the Red Sox starting pitching and so on.

25
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,960
Speaker 1: So I'm going to dive into that in this episode.

26
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 1: I see a few of you are trickling on in.

27
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: If you ken, just hit the like button for me

28
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: subscribe if you're new. We are trying to get to

29
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,960
Speaker 1: five k by the end of the season. We got

30
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: a busy how nine days left until the trade deadline here,

31
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: so let's dive into it. Let's dive into it. Sing

32
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: a lot of familiar faces in the chat. Thank you

33
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: for joining me today, ladies and gentlemen. Let's get into it.

34
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: Let's talk about first base first, shall we. Let's dive

35
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: into first base. So Alex Spear coming out with this article,

36
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: I believe it was last night, yesterday afternoon, don't remember

37
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: the exact time, but you know, kind of talking about

38
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: Abraham Toro Romi Gonzalez, the dynamic duo at first base

39
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: ever since they took over for Tristan Cassas who went

40
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: down to the beginning of May. Uh These guys have

41
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: been doing a great job overall, and actually we can

42
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: take a look at the numbers here. Since Tristan Cassis

43
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: went down the Red Sox they ranked twelfth overall in

44
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 1: WRC plus with a one to fourteen. It's been a

45
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 1: solid platoon. Romey Gonzalez, he's been amazing, hitting three h

46
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 1: seven with a three forty four on base, five forty

47
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: seven on the slugging a one to thirty six WRC plus.

48
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 1: This guy's been mashing lefties. I love me somem Rome

49
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: Gonzalz and the Neighbraham's Horo. He's been a pleasant surprise.

50
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: You know, he was a he just came out of

51
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: nowhere in spring training. This guy's been trying to find

52
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: his way for the last couple of years and he's

53
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: really stepped up for the Red Sox this year. Pretty

54
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 1: solid numbers overall, hitting two eighty a three point thirty

55
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: on base, a four to twenty five on the slugging

56
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: a one oh four WRC plus right right league average. However,

57
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: it's been a bit of a different tune as of late.

58
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: Over the last month now, Romi he's been red hoigh.

59
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 1: He's got a one to sixty three WRC plus over

60
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 1: the last thirty days. But Abraham Toro here, as you

61
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 1: can see, a bit of a different story for mister Toro. Now,

62
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: he's hitting two seventy three, not bad, three fifty five

63
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: on base that's pretty solid as well. But you look

64
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: at the slugging three eighteen WRC plus eighty seven at

65
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 1: first base. You want a bit more damage, right. You

66
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 1: want guys that are just gonna be able to do

67
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 1: more for you, especially Abraham Toro, the lefty bat who's

68
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: gonna be seeing just the majority of the playing time

69
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: because he's a lefty hitter going up against the right

70
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: handed pictures. So you do need, in my opinion, a

71
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: bit of an upgrade here. Again. You know, he does

72
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: a good job of getting the bat on the ball,

73
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: he gets on base, but when it comes to driving

74
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: in the runs, getting more bases, you do want a

75
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 1: bit of an upgrade there.

76
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 2: Now.

77
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: If they end up making a move, I'm not sure

78
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: what happens to the Toro at that point, you know,

79
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: could it be a guy off the bank, I don't know.

80
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: Could he accept an assignment down to triple A. I

81
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 1: don't know what would happen there, right, But numbers wise,

82
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 1: there is definitely an argument for an upgrade here. Now.

83
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:24,239
Speaker 1: Alex Spear, diving into a few possibilities at first base,

84
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 1: talks about the Diamondbacks in this article. Now, with the Diamondbacks,

85
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 1: it's a little weird right now, right because they're just

86
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 1: hovering around five hungred. They just can't fully get themselves

87
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: thrusted into being in that serious postseason contender mode. You know,

88
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: who knows. Maybe they do a Detroit Tigers from last

89
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: year and they just get red hot in the second half,

90
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: And that's very possible, right and they still have a

91
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: lot of talent on that team. So I'm interested to

92
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 1: see what the Diamondbacks end up doing. I think they

93
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: could go a few different routes. Obviously, they could just

94
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 1: sell right these expiring contracts Josh Naylor, Zach Gallen, Meryl Kelly,

95
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: Uhinio Suarez. They could definitely go that route. Or maybe

96
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,239
Speaker 1: they go a bit of more of a soft sell,

97
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:16,159
Speaker 1: or maybe they trade maybe a couple of those guys

98
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 1: right hang on to a couple of them, try to

99
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: compete in the second half. I could see them moving

100
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: Euhinio Suarez either way, because they have Jordan Lawler, one

101
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: of the higher ranked prospects in the game. He can

102
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: take over at third base, so I could see him

103
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: getting moved regardless. Zach Gowan, he's been very up and

104
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 1: down this year. I don't know. I mean, are they

105
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 1: gonna get the what they think is fair value for him?

106
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: He would be a rental. You wouldn't get much to

107
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: begin with. Right, You're not gonna be getting, you know,

108
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: a top ten prospect in the game, obviously, But I

109
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: don't know, because he's been so up and down, how

110
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: much are you actually going to get for him? Meryl Kelly,

111
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 1: I could see them getting a lot more for him.

112
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: He has been solid this year. But Josh Naylor, he's interesting.

113
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 1: I could see a scenario where they move him or

114
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: trade him. I could see that going either way. He

115
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: would be a great fit for the Red Sox in

116
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 1: my opinion. Taking a look at the numbers, hit two

117
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: ninety three, three sixty two on base, four fifty two

118
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: on the slugging a one to twenty five WRC plus.

119
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: Now with Naylor, when you're taking a look at the

120
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 1: advanced metrics here the batterball data, you know it's not

121
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: jumping off the page. Right with Naylor, what you're gonna

122
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: see more of good play discipline. He's not really gonna

123
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 1: strike out, he's gonna make a ton of contact, and

124
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: he's gonna get a decent amount of walks sixty third

125
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 1: percentile when it comes to the walks, you're gonna get

126
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 1: a pretty high energy player as well. This is a

127
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 1: guy that you know, he's had a u he's had

128
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: a personality right over the last couple of years. Remember

129
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: the Cradle the Baby thing with Garrett Cole. You know,

130
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: he gets into those high energy kind of situations, right

131
00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 1: We saw it in the postseason. Josh Naylor, I feel

132
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: like would he wouldn't be the same thing as Kyle Schorber,

133
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: but he would bring a bit of a personality, not

134
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 1: saying the Red Sox don't have any of that, but

135
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: he would just bring a little extra juice, little extra

136
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: mojo to the clubhouse as well. But then he got

137
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: Ryan O'Hearn. He's having a career year, unfortunately on a

138
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: bad Orioles team this year, hitting two seventy eight on base,

139
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 1: a three seventy three very good, four to fifty one

140
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: on the slugging a one thirty three WRC plus. Now

141
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: with O'Hearn, I mean, you're gonna see a good amount

142
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: of reds mixed in all over the place here, right,

143
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: good expected numbers, good exit Villo. He's not going to

144
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 1: strike out too much, he's gonna walk a good amount.

145
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: He squares up very well, so you are going to

146
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 1: see better batted ball data with Ryan O'Hearn. And I

147
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: wonder if the Red Sox would prefer that, you know,

148
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: the Red Sox they like their exit Villo. They like

149
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: these guys that can absolutely bang right, So I wonder

150
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: if that would be more of a preference for them,

151
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: because he also comes along with some good plate discipline

152
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: as well, along with being a rental. He's gonna cost

153
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: you something, but he's not gonna break the bank when

154
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,239
Speaker 1: it comes to giving up prospects. Now, there's also Yandi

155
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: Diaz who's been popping up here. Right. He mentioned Yandy

156
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: in this article as well, And let's actually go back

157
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: here to the article. Let's read this part. There have

158
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: been rumblings that the Rays could consider dealing Yandi, and

159
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 1: it's endlessly fascinating to imagine a scenario in which Tampa

160
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 1: Bay packages Diaz, who is signed through next season, and

161
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: a starting pictures such as Taj Bradley or Shane Boz

162
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: for a Socks outfielder such as will you'r a bray you,

163
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: But such a scenario is seen by multiple Major League

164
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 1: sources as extremely unlikely, with a deal of such magnitude

165
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 1: seen as a near impossibility for division rivals who are

166
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,959
Speaker 1: competing for a postseason birth. So yeah, I don't see that.

167
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: It's already hard to imagine, you know, the Rays being

168
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,680
Speaker 1: in contention dealing Yondy in division. That sounds a little

169
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 1: weird to me. Ryan O'Hearn, that's a little different because

170
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,679
Speaker 1: the Orioles are out of it. And also another thing

171
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 1: to mention with O'Hearn. You know, he has that American

172
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,679
Speaker 1: League East experience, so that's another reason why I think

173
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: the Red Sox would really like him. But with Yondy,

174
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: the Rays are trying to compete, so I don't see

175
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,119
Speaker 1: them moving Yondi to the Red Sox. It just feels weird,

176
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: especially moving Taj Bradley, Like where's this coming from. Taj

177
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: Bradley has been popping up in the rumor mill a

178
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 1: little bit over the last week because he would bring

179
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 1: back a really good return and they have Shane McClanahan

180
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 1: coming back so I could see them listening on Bradley

181
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 1: or Boz as well. That's something the Rays. They like

182
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: to do that as well, right, They really like to

183
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: sell high, especially when they have multiple years of control.

184
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: We've seen them do that in the past. But I

185
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: don't see the Rays trading Taj Bradley or Shane Boz

186
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 1: in the division, not especially when they're in contention. And

187
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: I don't see the Red Sox wanting to move will

188
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: you r or bray you especially in division? That just

189
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 1: makes no sense. This part of the article just feels

190
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 1: weird to me. Maybe YONDI on his own, I don't

191
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: see it. So to me, I would think if you're

192
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 1: going after a first baseman, I'm looking at Josh Naylor

193
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 1: or Ryan O'Hearn. However, those are Reynolds. Alex Spear does

194
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: mention another option. I think this is unlikely, but it's interesting.

195
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 1: He says here the A's merit watching both because they're

196
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 1: one of the few teams without realistic hopes of contending

197
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 1: the season, because they have a surplus a first baseman

198
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 1: slash left field slash slash DH bats in twenty two

199
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:55,719
Speaker 1: year old rookie masher Nick Kurtz longtime DH quarter outfielder

200
00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:01,439
Speaker 1: Brent Rooker and first baseman slash corner outfielder Tyler Soderstrom.

201
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 1: He goes on to say, they're not gonna move Karts,

202
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: They're not gonna move Rooker. I remember when we were

203
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: dreaming about Brent Rooker last year. I was really hoping

204
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: the Red Sox get their hands on him. But he

205
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 1: says soda Strum is seen across the industry as a

206
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: potential trade target with four remaining years of team control

207
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: after twenty twenty five, I never thought the A's would

208
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: even like consider moving him, to be completely honest, now,

209
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 1: looking at soda Strom, very good numbers overall, hitting two

210
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,079
Speaker 1: fifty eight, three thirty three on bas four forty nine

211
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: on the slugging a one to fifteen WRC plus eighteen homers,

212
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: multiple years of control, he's not a free agent until

213
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 1: after twenty twenty nine, very cheap. I could totally see

214
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: teams out there liking Tyler Sodastrom. But here's the thing,

215
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, I don't see really why

216
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: the a because he mentions in the article they have

217
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: a surplus. I don't know. I mean, if Soderstrom can

218
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,199
Speaker 1: go out and play left field. You have Kurts a

219
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 1: first base, and then Rookers are DH. I don't really

220
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,079
Speaker 1: look at that as a surplus. I look at the

221
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: Red Sox outfield situation as a surplus right with Yoshida

222
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 1: involved obviously SOT. Unless I'm missing something to me, I

223
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 1: don't really see if you're the A's why you would

224
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 1: have to move soda Strom at this point, unless I'm

225
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,199
Speaker 1: going completely blank, I mean is there. I mean, I

226
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,719
Speaker 1: know you got jj Bladay. They moved him back down

227
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 1: to triple A recently. He wasn't really doing anything, So again,

228
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: I don't see the need to move soda Strom. I

229
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: mean it could be interesting if you were to acquire

230
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: soda Strom. That would signal the end of Tristan Cassas

231
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 1: in Boston at that point. I mean, he'd be a

232
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: great bat to have. I mean, of course, I mean

233
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: we're would take a look here at soda Strom. When

234
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 1: it comes to the mextrics here on stackcast, I mean

235
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 1: you're seeing a good amount of reds as well. I mean,

236
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 1: this guy, he hits the crap out of the ball,

237
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: good bat of all data. I mean you can still

238
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: see an improvement when it comes to the plate discipline.

239
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 1: There's a decent amount of swing and miss. He does

240
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,719
Speaker 1: chase a little often, strikes out a decent amount. He's

241
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:27,439
Speaker 1: middle of the road when it comes to the walks.

242
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: But I don't see why the A's would move him.

243
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a team that again, just because

244
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 1: a team is out of it doesn't mean they're just

245
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: gonna sell off all these guys. I could see a

246
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: situation where if they move Soda Strom, that could help

247
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 1: them get back some pitching. Maybe you could see a

248
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 1: scenario like that. I wouldn't completely rule it out because

249
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: he would bring back decent value. I do think the

250
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 1: A's they need to beef up the pitching a little bit,

251
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 1: you know, Do they move Severarino. He hasn't pitched well

252
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 1: in Sacramento at their home ballpark there. He's been open about,

253
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: you know, not really enjoying pitching there. He's been a

254
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: lot better on the road. If they moved him, I mean,

255
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: they could definitely save some money. They wouldn't have to

256
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: pay him. Remember, they had to sign Severino this past

257
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: not Severino exactly, but they had to sign someone this

258
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: past offseason or the Players Association they were going to

259
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 1: file a grievance because they were moving, and you know,

260
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 1: they need to go out there and spend some money basically,

261
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: So I could see Severino getting moved. You got Jeffrey Springs,

262
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 1: who's under control. You know, you got JP Sears, you

263
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: got Gin, you got Gauge jump down in the minor

264
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: leagues as well. You know they they have a couple

265
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 1: of decent pitching prospects there. But I feel like they

266
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 1: really need to beef up the picting more so if

267
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: they could get back a picture in return for soda

268
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 1: Strom that's cost controlled. Maybe maybe Now, if we were

269
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 1: to look at a scenario with the Red Sox and

270
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 1: the A's definitely do it. And I feel like this

271
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: is the sweet spot on where the Red Sox would

272
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: like to deal. As of right now, he has a

273
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 1: surplus value that's a surplus median value of right around

274
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: twenty five million dollars. So that's gonna be a couple

275
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 1: of decent prospects that's gonna be you know, maybe even

276
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 1: a few. Now. The first names that come to mind

277
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 1: to me, you could do the password yo, Stinson and

278
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 1: Connelly early right, that really puts you in that ballpark

279
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 1: if you were to get a deal done, they'd get

280
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: a bat in return in Garcia, who's very close to

281
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: major League ready, so he could be their next guy

282
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 1: up for next year. And then you get a picture

283
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: in Connelly Early, so again, it's kind of like that

284
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 1: sweet spot where the Red Sox they're not having to,

285
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: you know, give up someone. I mean, I guess you

286
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 1: could talk about Franklin Aureus. You know, I don't think

287
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 1: you would have to pay, and totally I don't think

288
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: is going to be in any conversations Brandon Clark. I

289
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 1: would imagine the Red Sox would like to hang on

290
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 1: to him. But could you do someone like Early, who's

291
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: really done well this past year, the password who is

292
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 1: a bit blocked at this point, could you do something

293
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 1: like that? You know, maybe something with David Sandlin. I

294
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 1: think there are possibilities if they were to explore this route.

295
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 1: I just wonder about the motivation from the A's point

296
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: of view. That's where I'm at personally. So we'll see again.

297
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: You know, he did mention it in the article saying

298
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 1: people across the industry do you see him as a

299
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: potential trade target. We'll see. I think the A's they

300
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: would have to be enamored with a deal, to get

301
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: a deal done, Let's move on here. Let's move on

302
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: before we do, though, we do have a word from

303
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 1: one of our sponsors for this episode today. I'll be

304
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 1: right back.

305
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 3: You know about the best place to buy, sell, trade,

306
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 3: or look for that special card in your world. It's

307
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 3: called Arena Club and aer Kratz just went through a

308
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,480
Speaker 3: little slab pack experience and you went big. You went

309
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 3: for the Ruby Pack.

310
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 2: I love it. I love clicking on the Ruby Pack

311
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 2: and knowing that I'm going to open something that is

312
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 2: going to be epic. I got a cal Ricans junior

313
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 2: autographed one of forty two. I'm keeping it right now,

314
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 2: but I would love to have it in my hands,

315
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,119
Speaker 2: so I might even have them send it to me

316
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 2: already graded, everything taken care for me.

317
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 1: That's right.

318
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:27,680
Speaker 3: You want to hang it up and stare at it

319
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 3: all day, go for it. But if you're in there

320
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 3: to get something else or to sell it away, you

321
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,679
Speaker 3: can do that. They've got the buyback program, or you

322
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 3: can put it on the marketplace yourself. Tons of options.

329
00:17:54,480 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 1: L Alright, let's move on here, shall we? And we

330
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: got a little something here. We got a little something

331
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 1: here on Jaron Duran. Like I said at the start

332
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: of the show, this man cannot escape the rumor mill.

333
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 1: He just can't. No matter what he does, he can't

334
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 1: get away from the rumors. But we had this. We've

335
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,119
Speaker 1: got a few different things here. We got something here

336
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,920
Speaker 1: on CBS Sports. You gotta love it when we hear

337
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 1: all the stuff about the scouts coming to watch right.

338
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 1: A Padre scout has been at every Red Sox home

339
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: game over the past three weeks with eyes on Durant.

340
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,400
Speaker 1: San Diego needs outfield help and Duran could fill their

341
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 1: whole in left field. The question is whether the Padres

342
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 1: have the pieces to interest Boston and a deal. Head

343
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 1: of Baseball Operations Aj Preller has shown he's relentless when

344
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 1: targeting players, so the Red Sox will certainly listen. We

345
00:18:53,400 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 1: also had this from Jesse Rogers saying here Uh. Actually

346
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: he goes into this whole thing about the Red Sox

347
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: in this article. You actually got a quote here from

348
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:10,159
Speaker 1: Tabonnie saying having a surplus of good players isn't a

349
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: bad thing. The high end depth is a really good thing.

350
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: It's not like we're anxious to move away from that.

351
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 1: Now my read on that personally again, you know, there's

352
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with having, you know, a surplus. He's not

353
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 1: wrong there, but there is a bit of leverage sprinkled

354
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,360
Speaker 1: into that statement. Because you don't want teams. You want

355
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: to put yourself in the strongest possible negotiation stance. Right

356
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 1: when you put something out there like that, you are saying, like, listen,

357
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,439
Speaker 1: we're not giving this guy up easily. If you want

358
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 1: this player, you're going to have to give us something

359
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,239
Speaker 1: fair in return. Right, You want to be in a

360
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 1: strong stance negotiation wise, So simply saying, hey, we like

361
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 1: all this depth. We don't have to move them. We

362
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,399
Speaker 1: don't have to move of any of these guys. So

363
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 1: it's good for the Red Sox to come out and

364
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 1: say something like that. You know they have Craig Breslow

365
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 1: has said that himself. So he goes on to say

366
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 1: in this let me find the quote here. Let me see,

367
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: let me see, I had to quote. Where is this?

368
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 1: I always lose stuff in the articles. Let's see. Ah,

369
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 1: here we go. Okay. With that group helping the Red

370
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 1: Sox hold an American League wildcard spot, the front office

371
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 1: is likely to add pitching, according to sources familiar with

372
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: the situation, while returning the abundance of outfielders, unless the

373
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,680
Speaker 1: club is blown away with an offer in the next

374
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: ten days. So Jesse Rodger was saying that they would

375
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: have to be blown away for someone like Durant or

376
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 1: a break again. You want to put yourself in a

377
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: good position. We also had this from ESPN Jeff Passon

378
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,640
Speaker 1: Kylie McDaniel. They came out with their top fifty trade candidates.

379
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 1: Jared duran is number three on this list. They list

380
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: the best fits as San Diego, the Braves, the Guardians,

381
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 1: the Royals, the Giants, and the Phillies, I mean the Padres.

382
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,639
Speaker 1: With Jared Durant, it's been the worst kept secret in

383
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: all of baseball this year. The Braves. I think the

384
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 1: Braves are in an interesting spot where they're not looking

385
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,359
Speaker 1: good right now. They're looking like they're completely out of

386
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 1: it at this point. But could this be sort of

387
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: like a Alexanthropolis. This is a guy that he doesn't

388
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 1: just like to sell, right, He's got a ton of

389
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 1: talent on that team. At the very least, he's just

390
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,400
Speaker 1: gonna be looking to compete next year. So I wonder

391
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: if they could do something where you bring in Duran,

392
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,640
Speaker 1: you sell off some other guys like Marcello Zuna right

393
00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: expiring contracts, but you also find a way to bring

394
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,199
Speaker 1: in Duran, who could be with your team for the

395
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 1: next few years. You know, I could see a scenario

396
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 1: like that with Atlanta. I think the Guardians are interesting.

397
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 1: I feel like they need a little bit more pop

398
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 1: in the lineup. I don't know. I feel like, you know,

399
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 1: Stephen Kwang, Jaron Duran at the top of the lineup.

400
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 1: I think that could be pretty interesting. But I feel

401
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 1: like they just need a little bit more thump in

402
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 1: the middle. Right, you got Kansas City. You know, they're

403
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 1: not looking amazing right now. I'm not sure what they're

404
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,160
Speaker 1: gonna be doing here. You could maybe see a situation

405
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:34,919
Speaker 1: there they could use some more offensive production in the

406
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 1: outfield the Giants. Could you imagine the Red Sox making

407
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 1: another deal with the Giants and the Phillies right the

408
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:45,119
Speaker 1: Red Sox playing the Phillies right now. Dave Dobrowski, I

409
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 1: could totally see him being interested in Duran. They need,

410
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 1: I think a bit more of an upgrade there. Brandon

411
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: Marsh He's been a little underwhelming this year in my opinion.

412
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,200
Speaker 1: Max Kepler, you know he's not blowing the roof off

413
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: the door by any means, you know, So I could

414
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 1: see that. And Jim Bowden take Jim Boden with a

415
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,440
Speaker 1: grain of salt, Ladies and gentlemen. That is a rule

416
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: number one when it comes to Jimmy Jim. But he

417
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: says here the Padres and Phillies would love to land Durant. However,

418
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,199
Speaker 1: the Pareys really don't match up with Boston unless the

419
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 1: Socks would take a picture on and expire in contract

420
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,160
Speaker 1: like Dylan Ce Sir Michael King. Or perhaps they could

421
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 1: try a three way trade with the Marlins, where Boston

422
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: would land Edward Cabrera from Miami, the Pareys would get Duran,

423
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 1: and the Marlins would get prospects from both Boston and

424
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:35,199
Speaker 1: San Diego. The Socks are building for the short and

425
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 1: long term. Expect them to buy at the deadline with

426
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:42,120
Speaker 1: starting pitching in first base, their priorities. Now getting back

427
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 1: to the Pares here, for Jaron Durant, he absolutely fits right.

428
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: It makes a ton of sense. I will say, though,

429
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,119
Speaker 1: I did a video not too long ago on the

430
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: main channel saying I don't necessarily think Duran is the

431
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: biggest need for them. I think he fits obviously positional wise,

432
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,719
Speaker 1: but I think the Padres need a bit more power

433
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 1: in this lineup. I don't think having you know, I

434
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 1: don't think Duran would hurt at all having him in

435
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,639
Speaker 1: this lineup, but I could see personally where the argument

436
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: for Taylor Ward could be stronger because he's gonna give

437
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 1: you a decent amount of home runs in the middle

438
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: of the order, which the Padres need. Duran would obviously

439
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 1: not hurt though in this lineup, So it makes sense. Again.

440
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 1: The problem is is how do the Padres get this done? Now?

441
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:34,679
Speaker 1: I put out this three way trade. When did I

442
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,639
Speaker 1: put this out here? I posted this July ninth, and

443
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 1: it seemed like ever since I posted this, everyone's coming

444
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: out with ideas, Oh, maybe they could do a three

445
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: way deal. I'm not saying I started all of that,

446
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 1: but I put out this one, and all of a sudden,

447
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: everyone's putting out three way trades for Jaron Duran left him, right,

448
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 1: But I did this with Joe Ryan, right. He's cooled

449
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 1: off a little bit here over the last week or so,

450
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 1: but this was the idea that I had with Joe Ryan.

451
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:10,880
Speaker 1: At least, maybe this gets the conversation in the right direction. However,

452
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 1: with the pads Rays, I feel like this is going

453
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,719
Speaker 1: to be the best way. Not this exactly, but this

454
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 1: type of a trade would be the best way for

455
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:23,159
Speaker 1: them to get a deal done, unless Preller is really

456
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 1: wanting to empty his farm. You did just have the draft,

457
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 1: so maybe that could come into play a little bit.

458
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,439
Speaker 1: Where he feels good about some of the prospects they

459
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,439
Speaker 1: brought in, maybe he feels like he could depart with

460
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 1: some of them. I think a three way trade is

461
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: going to be the best way for the pad Rays

462
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 1: to land Rand if they indeed want him. If you

463
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: were to go straight up, I think you could get

464
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: something done. But you know, what is it gonna take here?

465
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 1: Jeremiah Strata could be a really good bullpoint arm for

466
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: the Red Sox to get. He's under a ton of control.

467
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 1: He'd be pretty solid there. Maybe you could bring back

468
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,440
Speaker 1: Dylan Cease. Michael King. He's having some arm issues right now.

469
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 1: Not sure what's going on there. Ceese has had a

470
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 1: down year metrics wise, though Dylan Ceese is still looking

471
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 1: pretty strong. So I could maybe see a situation where

472
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 1: the Pasres, you know, he's not bringing the best results

473
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 1: for them, but maybe he could produce somewhere else and

474
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: if it helps get them Jaron Duran to help out

475
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 1: with their lineup, you know, maybe they could explore something

476
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 1: like that. But Cease would not be, uh, you know,

477
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 1: the biggest value part of this trade. He would be something,

478
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,640
Speaker 1: of course. But another thing too with the pag Raise

479
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,359
Speaker 1: is I don't think they're gonna bring him back. I mean,

480
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 1: he's a Scott Boris client. He's gonna be getting a

481
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: free agency here soon. I don't see a situation where

482
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 1: the Poreys are even gonna even try to even be

483
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 1: in that realm to you know, visit a long term deal.

484
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: So I could see them moving on from him to

485
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 1: help them try and get something back here for the

486
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,120
Speaker 1: next few years. Because you do got you Darvish back

487
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 1: in the fold.

488
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 2: Now.

489
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 1: Michael King's gonna come back eventually here, So I could see,

490
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 1: you know, let's actually take a look here at the

491
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 1: Padres rotation, so taking a look here at Darva and Paveta.

492
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 1: Obviously King's gonna come back soon. So if they feel

493
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 1: comfortable with going with Darvish, Pavetta, King, and you know,

494
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 1: Randy guys like Randy Vasquez at the back end, maybe

495
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,120
Speaker 1: they could go out there go get someone like Andrew

496
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: Heeny or something. You know, maybe they would feel comfortable

497
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 1: dealing Dylan Cease because again the numbers haven't been great

498
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 1: for the Pasreis, but because of his metrics, maybe he

499
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 1: could be better off somewhere else, right, So I mean, again,

500
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,479
Speaker 1: I'm not saying this is what I would want in

501
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 1: this trade, but could you start off a conversation like

502
00:27:56,320 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 1: this where you know, Estrata Cease their top pitching prospect,

503
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,439
Speaker 1: Cash Mayfield. I could see the Red Sox being intrigued

504
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:09,120
Speaker 1: with him. Maybe a position player prospect like Kale Fountain

505
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 1: a little further away, you know, maybe brings someone back

506
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 1: like him, or I don't know, maybe another picture. I

507
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:18,160
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm not saying that the Padres can't get

508
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 1: a deal done for Duran. I don't know. I don't know,

509
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 1: if it's gonna be likely though, we'll see I mean Preller,

510
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 1: I mean, you saw how aggressive he was last year.

511
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: You've seen how aggressive Preler's been going back to you

512
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: know what was at twenty twenty. You know, this guy

513
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 1: every single year, he just comes up with something out

514
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 1: of his butt every single year. So he just comes

515
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: out of nowhere. Like last year. You know, you saw

516
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: the deals that he pulled off right to bring in Tanner, Scott,

517
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: Jason Adam. No, he gave up a lot in those deals.

518
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: So the problem is, like what do they have. Do

519
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: they have enough that's gonna be able to land someone

520
00:28:58,240 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: like Duran? You're not gonna be You're not gonna get leoed.

521
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: That's not gonna happen. Leo Devriz. He has more value

522
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: than Jaronduran right now. He's a top five shortstop prospect.

523
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 1: He's a top five prospect in the game, and he's

524
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: a shortstop. I just don't see the Padres dealing him.

525
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: Ethan Sallas. I don't see the Red Sox really want

526
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:20,400
Speaker 1: Maybe they would want him, possibly, but the bat it's

527
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,560
Speaker 1: completely tanked. He's been hurt for a little while.

528
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 2: Now.

529
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't I don't think the Red

530
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: Sox would want him. If they do well, then you

531
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 1: could definitely be talking here for sure. That's why I

532
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 1: have Jeremiah a Strata there, because I don't think the

533
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: Padres are gonna give up Leo de Vriese. I don't

534
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: know if the Red Sox would want Salas, so Estrada

535
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: would be your next best value option to put in

536
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 1: a trade, right. I don't think they're gonna give up

537
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 1: Adrian Morihon Waldron. I mean he got sent back down

538
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 1: because I don't know, Like that's where I just wonder

539
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,440
Speaker 1: what do the Padres have. But Preller, I think he's

540
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: gonna keep picking up the phone until he can get

541
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 1: something done, or at least try. We'll see. We'll see. Now.

542
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 1: Another idea for a possible three way trade, maybe could

543
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: do something with the Pirates where the Red Sox can

544
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 1: bring back mix Keller. Again. Getting back to Sallas, though,

545
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 1: would the Pirates want him? I don't think so. The

546
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: Pirates they really need bats that not only are good bats,

547
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 1: but bats that can help them in the near future. Sallas,

548
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 1: he doesn't have a good bat at least as of

549
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 1: right now, and he's far away, so I don't see

550
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 1: the Pirates really wanting him. I don't see why they

551
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,239
Speaker 1: would want someone like Jeremiah Strata, like you know what

552
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 1: I mean. Like, so, I don't think this deal really works.

553
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 1: We had Jim Bowden. I don't know why it was

554
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 1: going so blank Jim Bowden. He mentioned the Marlins where

555
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,160
Speaker 1: Edward Cabrera could go to the Red Sox. Listen, I

556
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 1: don't want every Cabrera. I really don't. I know he's

557
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 1: having a really good year, but in my opinion, he

558
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 1: lacks the track record. He's had a lot of issues

559
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: with the arm over the last couple of years. I

560
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 1: don't think that's the answer for the Red Sox right now.

561
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 1: I just don't. I would rather the Red Sox instead

562
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 1: of getting Edbra Cabrera, who is under control. I would

563
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 1: rather the Red Sox go out there and go get

564
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 1: a rental instead, like Merril Kelly. I would be much

565
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 1: happier with that, and then figure out the pitching in

566
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 1: the off season. All right, maybe you can go sign

567
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: someone in the off season. So I don't know. Edberg

568
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: Cabrera doesn't do it for me. But even still, yes

569
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: he's having a good year, the value isn't as high

570
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: as you would think it would be, just because of

571
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 1: the track record, the injuries he's had. There's a question

572
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 1: mark with him, right, So this trade in itself, I

573
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 1: don't think you can really put it together. I mean,

574
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to add something else. Of the Red Sox,

575
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, there's nothing else really, I don't know.

576
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: It's kind of like a weird trade to put together.

577
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,080
Speaker 1: Like from the Parey's point of view, let's say they

578
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 1: threw Estrata in there, going with Cabrera to the Red Sox,

579
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 1: and in the Red Sox they're now getting at least

580
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 1: close to even value when it comes to Duran. But

581
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 1: what are the Marlins gonna get here? I don't know.

582
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 1: So the Posreys, I guess you could flip over a

583
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 1: couple more prospects, but then how do you complete the

584
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 1: deal for the Marlins Because the Red Sox they're already

585
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 1: giving up Duran, so so the Padres, I mean, they

586
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 1: wouldn't have enough prospects here to make the Marlins happy

587
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 1: in this deal. So I don't see this one happening.

588
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 2: I don't know.

589
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 1: It just feels weird again, like I'll go back to it.

590
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 1: Maybe the Joe Ryan stuff can heat back up and

591
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 1: maybe you could figure out something here, or maybe you

592
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 1: can just figure it out straight up. It's gonna be tough.

593
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 1: The Padres would have to give up a lot, and

594
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: I do feel like Dylan Ceese would have to be

595
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: part of it is a strata the guy the Red

596
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: Sox would want. I'm not sure about that. I just

597
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 1: don't know if this is gonna be able to get

598
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 1: it done. I know Red Sox fans probably not like

599
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 1: this trade at all. That's my guess on that. I don't.

600
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 1: I'm not a huge fan of it personally. So that's

601
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 1: where again, I just I get back to that article

602
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 1: where they say, you know, good chance move the Red

603
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: Sox just hang on to Duran and they figure it

604
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,719
Speaker 1: out in the off season. That's kind of where that

605
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 1: might be the best possible move because Duran is still

606
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: gonna have a lot of value even after this year.

607
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 1: So if you did want to move someone, you would

608
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 1: have more time in the off season, more time to breathe,

609
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 1: more time to think, and maybe you can do it.

610
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 2: Then.

611
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: That's kind of the way I'm leaning right now, unless

612
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 1: something really gets going where maybe the Twins they're convinced

613
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 1: to move Ran. I could see that possibly or off.

614
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 1: Aj Preller is really just willing to unload just whatever

615
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:12,879
Speaker 1: and anything he has to get him. We'll see. That's

616
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: kind of where I'm at. I feel like I'm leaning

617
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:19,399
Speaker 1: towards Duran, probably staying unless something really picks up here

618
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 1: over the next week. You know, a lot can happen

619
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 1: here over the next week, we'll see. Let's go over

620
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,640

00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:41,240
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the article here on ESPN

644
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 1: the top fifty trade deadline candidates from Jeff Passon and

645
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 1: Kylie McDaniel. Euhenio Suarez listed at number one. Well, like

646
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 1: I said, I do think Euenio Suarez is going to

647
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 1: be moved regardless whether or not the Diamondbacks want to

648
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,239
Speaker 1: compete in the second half or if they do want

649
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 1: to sell, because they got Jordan Lawler in the fold.

650
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 1: So I do agree with him being the number one.

651
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:07,839
Speaker 1: Stephen Kwan is really interesting here. I mean they would

652
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 1: get back a lot for Stephen Kwan if they were

653
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 1: to move him. We'll see, but we're focusing on the

654
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 1: Red Sox guys here. Jaron Duran, like I said earlier,

655
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 1: listed at number three, I'll repeat what I said. I

656
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 1: just think with Duran, I think a lot is gonna

657
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,839
Speaker 1: have to happen here over the next week or so.

658
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: I just wonder if something's gonna materialize, because the Red

659
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,880
Speaker 1: Sox they're not just gonna sell him for pennies on

660
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 1: the dollar, right, They're gonna want fair value back for him.

661
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 1: Will the Padres have enough? I think they could have enough,

662
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 1: But then it comes down to do the Red Sox

663
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 1: want what they could offer? Right? I mean, you could

664
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: get yourself Dylan Cease, he has struggled this year better

665
00:36:55,560 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 1: advanced metrics though maybe that could be something, right, he

666
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 1: would just be a rental. I don't know. I don't know.

667
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 1: I could see right now, the way I'm feeling right now,

668
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 1: this could change tomorrow. I feel like an off season

669
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:12,840
Speaker 1: move is more likely if you were to go that

670
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:18,319
Speaker 1: route and Rob Bradford. He also did say that if

671
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 1: the if the Red Sox did trade Jaron Duran, that

672
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:25,959
Speaker 1: the clubhouse would they would be they would they would

673
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,840
Speaker 1: be none too happy about it. So that is something

674
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,840
Speaker 1: you do have to factor in as well. I mean,

675
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,759
Speaker 1: you already moved Rafi doesn't. That doesn't seem to be

676
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:38,479
Speaker 1: bothering this team. Sorry to say that that they seem

677
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,879
Speaker 1: to be completely fine. But Duran, you know that's that's

678
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:45,359
Speaker 1: a little different, right because Duran he is h He's

679
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 1: a big part of this team, right, chemistry wise especially,

680
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 1: so that would be tough. So that's where I just

681
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 1: wonder off season might be more likely, unless they really

682
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,440
Speaker 1: get something that they can't turn down. Sandy al Kintara,

683
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,560
Speaker 1: they had a number. They do list the Red Sox

684
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 1: as a possibility. I don't see it personally. He's just

685
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 1: having a tough year, a guy that's also had Tommy

686
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 1: John now recently you just brought in Garrett Crochet. He

687
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:14,879
Speaker 1: would be pretty cheap to acquire becauseiness value has really

688
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 1: gone down. He would cost something. But I don't know

689
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: if the Red Sox would be interested to hear. I

690
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:20,919
Speaker 1: don't know. I think they want more of a sure

691
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:24,040
Speaker 1: thing at this point. Seth Lugo, he doesn't list the

692
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: Red Sox for Seth Lugo. I wonder if they would

693
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 1: kick the tires on this. But we did talk about

694
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,160
Speaker 1: Lugo on the show not too long ago, where I

695
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 1: wonder about the metrics, right, gives up a little too

696
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 1: a few too many hard hit balls for my liking,

697
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,760
Speaker 1: and I just wonder how that would play at Famway Park.

698
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,880
Speaker 1: So I don't know Lugo. I wouldn't be surprised if

699
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 1: they made a call about but I'm not sure. We

700
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 1: go on to see Chris Bubick, Chris Bubick listed as

701
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 1: a possibility. Here's the thing with Chris Bubick, Right, he's

702
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,920
Speaker 1: having a very good year, very good year for the Royals,

703
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 1: breakout year for him coming into the season, though, Kem

704
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 1: Rosenthal reported that he is going to be on an

705
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,280
Speaker 1: innings limit. So and he's a he reported one hundred

706
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 1: and forty to one hundred and fifty innings pitched on

707
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:12,840
Speaker 1: the year. You got to remember, you know, he was

708
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 1: coming back from a surgery not too long ago. He

709
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,719
Speaker 1: was coming out of the bullpen last year, so it

710
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 1: makes sense that he is on some kind of an

711
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:25,839
Speaker 1: innings limit. I'm not sure how that comes. It kind

712
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 1: of reminds me of Garrett Crochet last year, right, he

713
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:33,719
Speaker 1: came back from Tommy John and they had to, you know,

714
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 1: really limit him and if a team. Want to remember,

715
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:38,719
Speaker 1: if a team wanted a trade for him last year,

716
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 1: Crochet said he was you know, he would only pitch

717
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 1: in the postseason if they gave him a contract extension.

718
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 1: So I think that was a fair play on Crochet's part.

719
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 1: That's something you got a factor in here. With Bubick.

720
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 1: There is gonna be some kind of an innings thing

721
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,400
Speaker 1: with him, and I don't think for the Red Sox

722
00:39:56,400 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 1: that would be the best situation overall. Taking a look

723
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 1: mix Keller, he listed them again. With Keller, he does

724
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 1: pretty well at limiting the walks, right, He's gonna be

725
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,359
Speaker 1: a really solid guy to having your rotation. But fit

726
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 1: wise at Family Park, I'm not so sure. He gives

727
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:17,120
Speaker 1: up a lot of hard contact. That's why I feel

728
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 1: like you'd be better off at say Wrigley in Chicago

729
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 1: City Field with the Mets, I think that would make

730
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: more sense for mix Keller. I wouldn't mind it if

731
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:31,279
Speaker 1: they brought him in, And you know, I wouldn't hate that,

732
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,800
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I do feel like there are better fits

733
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:38,800
Speaker 1: out there as well. Zach Gallen funny enough and Meryl Kelly.

734
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,759
Speaker 1: He lists Meryl Kelly as a guy for Boston, but

735
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 1: not Zach Gallen. Well, again, you look at the numbers

736
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,760
Speaker 1: with Gallen, he's having a tough time, and the Red Sox,

737
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 1: right they have shown the ability to get guys on track.

738
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,800
Speaker 1: But Gallen, that might be a little too much right now.

739
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,760
Speaker 1: I feel like unless a team really has the answer

740
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:01,960
Speaker 1: for him right now, maybe the Yankees. You know, if

741
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,880
Speaker 1: the Yankees are to make a move for Juhenio Suarez,

742
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 1: then you know, maybe you could throw in Gallon in

743
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 1: that and maybe Matt blaken Shrine works some magic with him.

744
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,799
Speaker 1: I feel like something with Gallen is going on mechanically here.

745
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 1: And my guess with Gallen is he probably ends up

746
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:23,040
Speaker 1: staying in Arizona. I could be wrong on that, right

747
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:24,879
Speaker 1: but I wonder if he ends up just staying there,

748
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 1: they give him the qualifying offer for next year and

749
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 1: then he can test free agency the year after that.

750
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:31,799
Speaker 1: I think with Gallon it's probably gonna take a little

751
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:34,800
Speaker 1: bit longer to correct whatever's going on with him. But Kelly,

752
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:38,839
Speaker 1: though Boston is listed here, I've been talking about Merrill

753
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:41,680
Speaker 1: Kelly here for a little while. If you're not able

754
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 1: to Land, a cost control guy like Joe Ryan, someone

755
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:49,360
Speaker 1: of that caliber. I think Kelly could realistically be a

756
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 1: good option here. I really do. A guy that he

757
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: just goes out there, he pitches, he's durable, he makes

758
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,439
Speaker 1: his turn every fifth day. He's shown he can pitch

759
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,880
Speaker 1: well in the post season, and a guy that he

760
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,080
Speaker 1: gets not a ton of ground balls. He's gonna be

761
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:08,480
Speaker 1: right around the sixtieth percentile. But with the Red Sox,

762
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,520
Speaker 1: they're infield defense, I think is gonna be a lot

763
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:13,399
Speaker 1: better in the second half with Marcelo Meyer at second base,

764
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 1: brag went back at third, story at short. I think

765
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 1: Kelly just when you factor in, he's a guy that

766
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,959
Speaker 1: you know he's not gonna be Joe Ryan by any means.

767
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,680
Speaker 1: He's not gonna be at that caliber, but at that caliber.

768
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,920
Speaker 1: But I think with Kelly, he's just really solid, a

769
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 1: good veteran guy. He can pitch in the postseason. He's

770
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 1: not gonna cost a ton. I could see something for

771
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 1: Merrill Kelly. I think it just makes a lot of sense.

772
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,239
Speaker 1: We'll see, though there's gonna be a lot of competition

773
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:45,719
Speaker 1: for him. Josh Naylor. He lists Boston here. Again, we

774
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:49,399
Speaker 1: talked about him earlier, I could see Naylor. I think

775
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 1: that checks off a lot of boxes. I just wonder

776
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,360
Speaker 1: if the Red Sox would rather go after someone like

777
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:58,239
Speaker 1: Ryan O'Hearn because he has the better batted ball data. Again,

778
00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:01,239
Speaker 1: they list the same thing for oh here, but you

779
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 1: are gonna be having competition for these guys, right, They

780
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:06,760
Speaker 1: list Seattle for one of these, So I just wonder

781
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 1: if one of them goes to Seattle, could the other

782
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:13,359
Speaker 1: one just come to Boston? Right? And I think both

783
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 1: of them, you know, soda Strom, Sure, that would be cool,

784
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:18,840
Speaker 1: But I feel like these two logistically would also just

785
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,399
Speaker 1: make more sense for the Red Sox because you don't

786
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:25,279
Speaker 1: know what's going on with Cassis. You don't know what's

787
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 1: gonna happen there. So I feel like the Red Sox

788
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:31,480
Speaker 1: they would like to give themselves a bit more flexibility

789
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,840
Speaker 1: in the off season where let's say they bringing soda Strom.

790
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:42,319
Speaker 1: I mean, you're kind of in a pretty tough negotiation standpoint,

791
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,160
Speaker 1: you know, with Cassas at that point, if you're bringing

792
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: soda Strom, Cassus is done in Boston, right, That's just

793
00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 1: not gonna happen moving forward if soda Strom comes in. So,

794
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 1: I don't know I just feel like the Red Sox

795
00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:01,239
Speaker 1: would rather have one of these guys, because if you

796
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:05,840
Speaker 1: bring in Soda Strom, I mean, like, what do you

797
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 1: do with Casas if he's healthy and he's showing that

798
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:11,799
Speaker 1: he's good to go, I mean, you're pretty much you

799
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:15,279
Speaker 1: have no negotiation power at that point. So that I

800
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:17,240
Speaker 1: look at it from the front office point of view,

801
00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 1: where I feel like they would rather just bring in

802
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 1: a rental and then they figure it out in the

803
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 1: off season, right whatever it may be. TODs Bradley, they

804
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:29,239
Speaker 1: list him again, I don't see it. I don't see

805
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 1: the Rays moving Tod's Bradley in division. Cabrera. I think

806
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:38,000
Speaker 1: there's just too many question marks with him. I think

807
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,040
Speaker 1: that was it for Boston on this list. I think

808
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:43,440
Speaker 1: that was it for the most part. I think out

809
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 1: of all of these guys, I think O'Hearn and Kelly

810
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:56,359
Speaker 1: are the most realistic options personally. Personally, I also note

811
00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 1: that Joe Ryan. I don't think Joe Ryan's on this list,

812
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:04,960
Speaker 1: so so I'm not sure what's going on there. That's

813
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,359
Speaker 1: where I'm leaning. I feel like the Red Sox. That's

814
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:10,479
Speaker 1: that's kind of my early prediction as of right now.

815
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:15,280
Speaker 1: I feel like they end up making a play separate

816
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:19,320
Speaker 1: trades for Meryl Kelly and Ryan O'Hearn. That's kind of

817
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:23,440
Speaker 1: where I'm at right now, two separate trades. I'm still

818
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: going to leave Jaron Durant on the table. I don't

819
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,440
Speaker 1: think it's impossible to get a deal done. I just

820
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 1: feel like it's more unlikely at this point. You never

821
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,320
Speaker 1: know with aj Preller, though, that guy is a maniac

822
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:37,799
Speaker 1: and he could absolutely just pull something out of me.

823
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 1: Who knows, maybe makes h pulls off another trade somewhere

824
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 1: else and maybe flips that guy. I don't know. Preller,

825
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 1: that guy's gonna be working the phones like crazy. He

826
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 1: has just pulled stuff out of thin air before we'll see.

827
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 1: But again, I'll repeat my early prediction. As of right now,

828
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 1: I feel like the Red Sox will end up landing

829
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:04,480
Speaker 1: Meryl Kelly and Ryan O'Hearn. That's where I'm at. But everybody,

830
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna wrap it up right there. I'm gonna wrap

831
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,640
Speaker 1: it up right there for today's show. We'll be back

832
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:12,360
Speaker 1: tonight though for postgame coverage. But I did want to

833
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:14,920
Speaker 1: come on here talk about all that because we did

834
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 1: the post game tonight and then all that it was

835
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 1: gonna we'll be here for a couple hours, so I

836
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:24,080
Speaker 1: wanted to just make a separate episode for today. But everybody,

837
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:26,279
Speaker 1: thank you for joining me this afternoon. Hope you're all

838

839
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:30,800
Speaker 1: of your lunch. I would imagine at least one of

840
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:33,359
Speaker 1: you is on a lunch break right now. But I

841
