Double Play: A Baseball Podcast

Shownotes Transcript

The deadline is less than a week away and there are still a couple of teams on the fence. We talk about who should be buyers and who should be sellers. The Giants are falling apart and are definitely looking like sellers. Is Joc going to be on the move again? News about Mike Trout having a rare back condition came out this week and we talk about if it's really as serious as it seemed when the reports came out. Benintendi was traded to the Yankees last night as if Red Sox fans needed any more devastating news. On the bright side, fans in the Bronx are coming up with sick nicknames for him like Benny Bombs! The Orioles are in fourth place in the AL East now and Joey is questioning whether front office personnel are upset that they've put themselves in position to be buyers. The Mets swept the Yankees in the Subway Series which leads to discussion on whether we might see a Mets/Yankees series in October. The A's also swept the Astros which causes Dallas to almost turn this episode into an A's podcast. Max Scherzer came out as being against using PitchCom because he thinks it takes away from the game by removing art of sign-stealing. Dallas agrees. Jared and Joey do not. Enjoy!
