Summary
Well, there's another crazy baseball weekend in the books. Monday's OMGG players are brought to you by Sixto Sanchez and Corbin Burnes (1:46). Both guys were ridiculous over the weekend and are approaching must-start status. ... With the MLB Trade Deadline approaching, teams are making moves (6:25). With Trevor Rosenthal traded to the Padres, who closes in San Diego and Kansas City? Mitch Moreland was also traded to the Padres, which opened up playing time for prospect Bobby Dalbec. Is Mychal Givens the closer in Colorado? ... On to news and notes, Gavin Lux was recalled for the Dodgers and Deivi Garcia looked pretty awesome for the Yankees Sunday (19:24). Who would Scott rather have between Dane Dunning and Garcia? Pay attention to the A's COVID situation. You may want to get them out for your lineups. ... We have weekend waiver wire targets, led by Nick Madrigal, Ryan Mountcastle, and Willy Adames (28:42). On the pitcher side, we're looking at Tyler Mahle, Tony Gonsolin, Matthew Boyd, Taijuan Walker, and JA Happ. Who do we want most from that group? ... In order to add players, we have to drop some (37:03). Is it time to drop Frankie Montas? ... Are any of these deeper league names interesting (47:01)? I'm looking at you Justin Dunn, Garrett Cooper, and Jason Heyward. ... Should you start or sit these fringy starting pitchers this week (54:38)? ... We wrap up with some bullpen notes (59:03). ...
