We join a tie game in the eighth and talk about how the game has gone for the Guardians so far. We talk about the Freddie Freeman situation which has been the talk of baseball with new information all the time. One can’t help but draw a comparison between Jose Ramirez and Freddie Freeman and how both were a pair of players who wanted to stay. Jose made sure it got done and Freddie was not given all the information by his agent. In the end, one player is very happy and the other is likely also happy but not as happy as they could have been.  We talk about the decline of Oscar Gonzalez of late and how his numbers show him to be in a very small group of players in terms of walks, strikeouts, and groundball rate. His most likely comparison is Randal Grichuk, but like everyone else Gonzalez matches up with it has been an up and down career. We also talk about Amed Rosario and how this season has been much like last season for him and one can expect many more ups and downs on the way to a league-average season for the Guardians shortstop. I am still bullish on a trade because he will likely make eight million or more in his final year of arbitration. The Guardians own all the shortstop prospects in baseball, so getting league average at that cost doesn’t match up.  We talk about the top ten players as I see it right now in the minors. Will Brennan has made a name for himself this year and looks like another Steven Kwan type of outfielder for the Guardians. Brennan is a fascinating prospect as he was announced as a two-way player and might have gotten a chance to pitch if not for the lost 2020 season. Instead, he focused on hitting has not looked back, and has been one of the best hitters in the Guardians minors this year. We talk about George Valera and make a case for his promotion. We also give Micah Pries a shoutout as the Eastern League player of the week and talk about the promotions of Xzavion Curry and Logan Allen. Oh and we experience an unbelievable walk off win for the Cleveland Guardians.
