Episode Notes

On Thursday afternoon, the Diamondbacks traded utility man Blaze Alexander to the Baltimore Orioles for an intriguing young reliever in right-hander Kade Strowd and a pair of prospects. How has Strowd looked in his young major-league career, and what is there to like about prospects Wellington Aracena and Jose Meija?

On the flip-side, how are the Diamondbacks going to manage without Alexander in the infield? What does this mean for Jordan Lawlar, Tim Tawa, Ildemaro Vargas and others? Will the D-backs need to backfill externally?

Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers break down all angles of the deal in the latest episode of Snakes Territory.
