Description
David provides insight from a discussion he had with Houston Astros owner Jim Crane in regards to the team’s decision to move away from GM James Click. Both Coney and Justin wonder how much will it take for Justin Verlander to come pitch for your team in 2023. David believes the Yankees could be in play again. Justin believes the Mets would be better served with Verlander on a short-term deal over re-signing Jacob deGrom. Producer (and noted Aaron Judge stan) Dan Rourke joins the discussion as Aaron Judge’s free agency takes center stage. As the Giants are rumored to be in pursuit of the slugger, what would David tell Judge about signing with his hometown team? How could the Yankees address other areas with money in the event Judge signs elsewhere? What about if he stays? David and Justin also discuss the important Rule 5 and non-tender deadlines that team’s are making this week that could open the floodgates to off-season trades and signings.
