We dig into the recent headlines, rumors, and signings to discuss their impact on the Cleveland Guardians. We mention the newest minor readdiction with the Guardians resigning Dom Nunez, and why he might be the most impactful player who is unlikely to play for the Guardians this year. Then we jump in a 27-pick mock draft with Sleepers and Selections for all 27 picks. While I might struggle to remember the name of Seaver King and make a mistake about Kyson Witherspoon the data and information about what teams have historically done stands out as it lead to me getting three teams and players correct in the 2024 draft in October of 2023. So tune in to who I think your team might take, and make fun of my mistake with Witherspoon as his age threw me off in this one. 0:00 Intro 2:00 Mock Draft Overview 7:00 Draft Structure Changes 12:00 Washington Nationals' Draft Strategy 18:00 St. Louis Cardinals' New Front Office 24:00 Cincinnati Reds' Draft Approach 30:00 Oakland Athletics' Draft Preferences 42:00 Cleveland Guardians' Draft Focus Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Cleveland Guardians have had a busy start to the hot stove season. This episode discusses if the Guardians are done after signing Shane Bieber and flipping Andres Gimenez for pitching help/financial relief, or if they will actually make more moves before spring training.

In this episode, we also bring up why the Guardians should be able to fix Josh Hartle, recap who the Guardians added and lost in the Rule 5 draft, mention potential trade for Taylor Ward, why the Guardians should make a pitch to Roki Sasaki, and celebrate Tom Hamilton finally getting into the Baseball Hall of Fame. 6:59 A day later perspective on the Andres Gimenez trade 12:08 Are the Guardians done, or is there more? 18:07 Josh Naylor's Trade Likelihood 25:00 Why the Guardians should be able to 'fix' Josh Hartle 31:37 Rule 5 Draft Recap 33:00 If Taylor Ward is on the block, the Guardians should be involved 35:00 The Guardians should make a pitch to Roki Sasaki 37:34 Tom Hamilton's Hall of Fame Induction Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Shane Bieber is reportedly returning to the Cleveland Guardians. This episode breaks down how and why Bieber is back in the fold for 2025 and maybe 2026, and looks at the risk for both sides and what the best case scenario is for the Guardians and Bieber in this deal. We also discuss if this deal takes the Guardians out of doing anything else in the way of adding pitching this offeason, as well as some other "trade rumors" about the Cincinnati Reds interest in Josh Naylor and Lane Thomas, and if that makes any sense. Juan Soto also signed his mega deal and Wily Adames signed a big contract over the weekend, both of which impacts Cleveland's draft status, so we detail those ramifications as well in this episode. 5:00 Shane Bieber's Return 10:00 Bieber's Health and Future 15:00 Guardians' Strategy and Winter Meetings 20:00 Trade Rumors and Market Options 25:00 Lane Thomas and Josh Naylor Trade Speculation 30:00 Impact of Juan Soto's Deal Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Why is it that of all the major sports only the MLB fails to turn its free agency and offseason into an event that has fans' interests and attention glued to their favorite sport? Why does the MLB offseason feel like a lot of nothing with minor moments of interest and how can they fix it? We get into the changing pitching market and the only area people are attacking in Free Agency. Then we talk about the problem with most of the trade ideas that come across, as well as the importance of checking sources and not letting the lack of news let you get taken in by those who are chasing clout and don't have anything meaningful to say. Lastly, people liked the underrated prospects last week, so we dig into the overrated prospects. All players that are very interesting or good prospects but ones I am lower on than the field or that people brought up a lot this year and I can't match up with the hype and why that is. I will gladly be wrong with about every player, but as of now even for the best of prospects, these are guys I just don't match up with in terms of rankings on MLB.com or the amount of chatter online or in our comments. 0:00 Intro 5:09 Blake Snell's Dodgers Deal 10:14 Trade Talk and Media Literacy 15:22 Prospect Valuation 20:30 Cleveland Guardians' Trade Strategy 25:34 Overrated Prospects 30:44 Prospect Evaluation Challenges 35:57 Closing Remarks Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

MLB's non-tender deadline is November 22. The Cleveland Guardians already avoided arbitration with Triston McKenzie for 2025, so he'll be back. This episode discusses what to expect from McKenzie heading into 2025 now that he's under contract and if the team has any other non-tender candidates. We also look at candidates from other teams that could be non-tenders that could be of interest to the Guardians. And the Guardians have reportedly hired a new member of the front office, Alyssa Nakken, formerly of the San Francisco Giants, to a player development role. We discuss her background and why the Guardians could be bringing her into the fold. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
