Summary

Today’s word of the day is ‘last call’ as in the MLB trade deadline is here as in this is the last time teams can make trade to get better. In previous years that wasn’t the case. (2:25) The Los Angeles Dodger pulled off the ultimate rope-a-dope against the San Diego Padres. It was reported the Padres had a deal to acquire Max Scherzer and then BOOM! the Dodgers came in and stole it. How did this happen? How did the Dodgers get Scherzer and Trea Turner? (11:50) Anthony Rizzo time in Chicago is done. Rizzo is headed to the New York Yankees. Have the Yankees done enough by adding Rizzo and Joey Gallo? Will this save the season? (22:05) We reviewed Black Widow a few days ago and now we’re back! Scarlett Johansson is very mad at Disney and she says the company owes her big money because of the release. This is a game changer. (30:50) So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me about the trade deadline details; how much does a player know?; What happens once trade is official?; What happens after the player is trade? — thank you for asking. (38:40) NPPOD.

1:11.2

In previous years, there was a rule that you could make trades up to August 31st if a player
