On this week’s episode, we begin by discussing Framber Valdez’s no-hitter, a 93-pitch masterpiece in a 2-0 win against the Guardians that saw him face the minimum amount of hitters. From there, we discuss a trade deadline that saw Justin Verlander reuniting with the Astros, the Mets blowing it up by trading Mark Cahna, Tommy Pham, and David Robertson, the Phillies and Orioles upgrading their rotations with Michael Lorenzen and Jack Flaherty, Aaron Civale heading to the Rays, Jeimer Candelario going to the Cubs, and the Diamondbacks adding a closer in Paul Sewald. To wrap up, we discuss Cole Hamels’ retirement, and his Hall of Fame chances.
