We’re back from the break, and William is lacing up the cleats for a Coaches vs. Players game this weekend (0:00). Then it’s time to break down all the All-Star festivities. We recap Cal Raleigh’s dramatic (and controversial) Home Run Derby victory and pitch a few changes to spice up the format (4:33). The All-Star Game itself brought the energy - we dive into the ABS rollout, the debut of the swing-off tiebreaker, and Aaron Boone's managerial strategy.
From there, we shift gears to the meat of the pod: a full MLB Trade Deadline Preview (29:04). We break down the buyers, sellers, and wild cards that could go either way. Who are the biggest names likely to move? Will it be another snoozer of a deadline, or could we see chaos? We make our predictions for players like Emmanuel Clase, Jhoan Duran, Eugenio Suárez, and toss in a few surprise candidates who might be on the block.
