This week, host Darragh McDonald is joined by Tim Dierkes of MLB Trade Rumors to discuss…
- The Cubs re-signing Cody Bellinger (1:40)
- How did he end up with a short-term deal? (3:35)
- Why would he not take a deal of around six years, $150MM? (5:00)
- Was this about Bellinger’s Statcast metrics? (8:00)
- Would Bellinger have gotten a megadeal in a different winter? (11:15)
- Is there a gulf widening between what superstars can make and what mid-market players can make? (15:55)
- How does the Bellinger deal affect expectations for the other Boras guys? (19:35)
Plus, we answer your questions, including…
- We have some brand-name starting pitchers who will be signing contracts after Spring Training games have begun. Historically, how have previous late signings fared after starting their seasons so late? (27:00)
- Does the Aaron Nola deal look terrible in hindsight? In my opinion, he’s not as good as Blake Snell or Jordan Montgomery and Nola got more than every pitcher except for the Dodgers’ guys. Do the Sonny Gray and Eduardo Rodríguez deals look smarter than Nola’s too? (30:30)
- What is the feeling around Juan Soto and where he might be in 2025? I feel like he’s gonna stick with the Yankees but everyone seems to think it’s a one-year location for him. (34:10)
