Ryan Pressly To The Cubs, Bregman's Future, And Jurickson Profar
Anthony Franco joins Darragh McDonald to discuss the Astros trading Ryan Pressly to the Cubs, Houston's continued involvement in bringing back Alex Bregman and the potential of moving Jose Altuve to the outfield, the Braves signing Jurickson Profar, whether they will try to stay under the luxury tax threshold this season or if there is money available to improve their rotation depth.
Listener question topics include whether the Pirates will acquire a right fielder before the season starts, why Jack Flaherty is still unsigned, the reasons that the baseball offseason is so different from other sports, if there is a common thread between the big-name players who are still on the market, which team would say no to a Luis Arraez for Brett Baty trade, and if the Cubs should pursue a Michael King trade with the Padres.
