We talk about the Austin Meadows deal. I get into why the Rays did this, and why they are likely better for making this trade. I talk about why Meadows would have been an upgrade for the Guardians but not as much as most people think. We talk about why he would not have been an ideal outfielder and why I think Steven Kwan could outperform him.
We discussed the other trade that occurred that was one that I think might have been more helpful for the Cleveland Guardians. Ohio kid Tanner Scott and former Guardians farmhand were traded from the Baltimore Orioles to the Florida Marlins. I talk about why this trade will likely have a greater return than the Meadows deal.
We talk a bit about the college pitching class, and who is shining in a class that might not see a player taken in the first 20 picks. After that, we focus on Ivan Melendez “The Hispanic Titanic” as he is known. The University of Texas first baseman has some obvious knocks, but when you look at the data he is one of the safest hitters in this class and putting up numbers that video games would be jealous of.
