Ep. 90: A Tale of Two Contracts, Red Sox Reach, GM for a Day Pt.2

On this week’s episode, the boys talk about two more big shortstop names who are off the board. Carlos Correa and Xander Bogaerts are with new teams. Two shortstops and two different contracts. While there are many similarities between the players and money per year, these contracts are anything but the same. The boys dive in and give their thoughts. After losing Bogaerts, the Red Sox pulled the trigger too soon to grab Japanese outfielder Masataka Yoshida. Was five years, $90 million too much for the NPB star, turned MLB-unproven player? The biggest trade of the offseason took place earlier this week between the Atlanta Braves, Milwaukee Brewers, and Oakland A’s. The boys discuss who won the deals and who lost and how it will affect each club going forward. Afterward, the boys do part two of GM for a Day. This time they each pick one bad team and try to make them better. They round out the show with Collection Corner.
