Effectively Wild Episode 1585: The Not-So-Deadline
Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley recap and analyze the trade deadline, concentrating on the Padres’ unprecedented activity, Cleveland dealing Mike Clevinger, the Blue Jays buying, the Diamondbacks selling, several other contenders retooling, and why the deadline was busier than expected, followed by banter about a second Clayton Kershaw tire commercial and an example of Honus Wagner being bush league.
Audio intro: The Avett Brothers, “A Lot of Moving“
Audio outro: Teenage Fanclub, “I Don’t Know“
