Episode Notes

Steve Adams joins Darragh McDonald to discuss the Rays' upcoming ownership change and the trade they made for reliever Bryan Baker, the bullpen overhaul the Orioles will have to do this offseason, the Phillies targeting relievers with multiple years of control left, and whether teams on the bubble of contention like the Twins and the Guardians will make a pivot to selling. 

Listener question topics include which 2025 all star is most likely to get traded, if the Red Sox will trade one of their young outfielders for pitching, what will happen to the struggling Tanner Houck when he returns from the IL, whether San Diego could trade Dylan Cease and still make the playoffs, and if Clay Holmes will be able to maintain a starter's workload for the rest of the year.
