Jared is at his breaking point with the Red Sox and considers trading in his fandom to be a White Sox fan. Meanwhile, Jared finds it weird that Juan Soto hasn't spoken to his teammates at all while injured.

The Mets are spiraling after losing their 12th straight, so Jared and Dallas discuss whether there's an identity issue. Munetaka Murakami is proving to be the best signing of the offseason for the White Sox. The Atlanta Braves are back in the NL East hunt, and Drake Baldwin can take a lot of credit for it. Meanwhile, Jared has some kind words ahead of Cam Schlittler's start in Boston tomorrow night. -Mets Lose 12 In A Row -Murakami Madness -Braves Are Back -Jared Talks Schlittler Trade $20 get $20 on Kalshi - http://kalshi.com/r/BID NEW BID MERCH IS HERE: https://www.baseballisdead.com For simple, online access to personalized and affordable care for Hair Loss, ED, Weight Loss, and more, visit Hims.com/BID Discover upgraded basics, fresh styles, and more at http://mackweldon.com .

The fellas discuss the absurdity of Mike Trout trade conversations and why saying he should've forced his way out has always been detached from reality. We also chat about Shohei Ohtani's pitching-only outing from Wednesday night, Sal Stewart's blistering start and the potential NL Rookie of the Year race between him and Nolan McLean.

Mike Trout is looking like his old self after three home runs in two games. Dallas sheds some light on the player perspective with Jarren Duran's run-in with a fan. Kevin McGonigle is here for the long term in Detroit.
