Anthony Franco joins Darragh McDonald to discuss the news of Tarik Skubal needing elbow surgery and what it means for the Tigers' season and his own free agency, the Marlins sending down catcher Agustin Ramierez, calling up top prospect Joe Mack and what to make of Liam Hicks, Chris Paddack getting released, the Giants promoting Bryce Eldridge and how he is an awkward fit on the roster, the Yankees optioning Anthony Volpe to Triple A to continue giving at bats to Jose Caballero, and how injuries to Garrett Crochet, Ranger Suarez and Sonny Gray have put the Red Sox rotation in a tough position.
Listener question topics include whether the Rockies should put Chase Dollander on the trade block, what the Brewers could do to address the left side of their infield, and if the Cubs should have high-upside prospects as bench players instead of veterans like Nicky Lopez.
