About
We start out with more Draft talk. I watched all three days of press conferences and pass on all of the most interesting bits of information from Scouting Director Scott Barnsby. While most of the information on the early picks was known there were some good nuggets about the players a bit further down the board.

Next, we talk about the last four players in this class that we have yet to focus on Angel Zarate, Zach Jacobs, Geo Rivera Jr., and Shawn Rapp. We get into a pair of UNC players, a small school player who dealt with injuries, and a flame thrower from the JUCO ranks. 

The trade deadline approaches and while all the chatter in baseball is about Juan Soto we dig into four outfielders that stand out in terms of the Guardians. We dig into the common names Ian Happ, Anthony Santander, and Ramon Laureano, or at least the common names mentioned on Locked on Guardians before focusing on maybe the most logical candidate Connor Joe. I don’t get into all he has had to overcome in terms of beating Cancer, and being traded several times. We just focus on how effective he has been and why he would be an ideal addition. He has been one of the premier contact hitters in baseball and has one of the best eyes of the strike zone. His positional flexibility, a right-handed bat, and five plus years of control would be a nice addition to the roster. We also discuss how the deal could have been expanded to include an interesting relief arm or two that would benefit from a change of scenery including a former Ohio State Buckeye and Walsh High School player Ryan Feltner.
