This is your latest project.

It's heavy with information, data and exactly 36 pages of waffle.

But with Acrobat Studio, you can create a PDF space,

an AI-powered workspace that turns documents into summaries and insights

and even generates reports or presentations out of it. So you can cut through the waffle,

work smarter, and save time. Do that with Acrobat. Learn more and try it out on adobe.com.

Good afternoon and welcome to Real GM Radio. The trade deadline's almost here on today's show.

I'll be joined by Dan Vivali of Bleacher Report to talk about the latest Janus trade chatter. What teams we hope don't make any moves? And then we're

going to come up with a bunch of trade ideas. Should be a fun one. Let's jump in.

Really excited about this one. I think I had you on this time last year, and now we're back for another round of dueling trade machines.

It is funny how much of the trade machine we use in our business.

I don't know about you.

I mean, the trade machine has been around for a very long time, but I didn't go to college

I still do, not that I care about the backlash, but I won't just throw them out on socials just to see what people say. I'm not that. Like, I got to write about it to feel like I could get my point across or talk about it on a podcast feel like i could get my point across but yeah i'm with you in the sense that even coming up

in this industry earlier on or when you're going through school there's just so many things they

don't prepare you for including the public public backlash but having to have like the understanding

of the collective bargaining agreement especially this collective bargaining agreement where it where it's just like, it's just insane. It's made trade so much harder, which I guess I like the challenge, but it's, you know, even with the Yannis stuff where people are talking about, oh, get them their swaps back. And it's like, well, they traded a swap to Portland, but then they traded the swap of that swap to Washington, so they wouldn't

technically, it's, it honestly bends my brain a lot. So I think that's actually been like the
