Are we looking at the real deal here? He's been great over the past month.4.Matt Chapman and Wyatt Langford both return on Saturday. Who do you like better in the second half?5.Michael Busch hit three home runs on Friday, and my fantasy teams definitely appreciate it. He's having a great season with a .288 batting average, 17 home runs, and 55 RBIs. However, he's only started eight games against lefties. Will the Cubs give him a full-time role or keep him as a strong-side platoon option?6.Colson Montgomery was promoted on Friday. I've downshifted on his because he's striking out a third of the time. I'm sure people will lay big money down because he's a famous prospect and had a good game.a. Your thoughts on him for the second half?Segment 3 – Waiver WireSegment 4 – Closer Report Close

In a truly stunning, out-of-left-field event, the Giants traded for slugger Rafael Devers. It really did come out of nowhere, but it's genesis was the discontent that was brewing in Boston after Devers was not being treated like a franchise player, being promised third base, only to have Alex Bregman usurp it. The Giants gave up relatively little as a price for securing Devers for the next 8 1/2 years. This was not a rental, and often 2 month rentals end up costing teams a LOT more than what the Giants gave up. All told, the Giants traded away Kyle Harrison, Jordan Hicks, and two prospects. Even the AAV for Devers is under what the market would bear now and certainly what it will bear in several years. Devers is in the prime of his career at age 28. Buster Posey made this happen, and he is the man right now. Eric, Willie, and Chad discuss this blockbuster and can't find a comp to it in recent Giants history. We are all excited, but if the Giants would just actually perform on the field. After briefly tying the Dodgers for first place in the NL West over the weekend, they have lost 4 in a row and 5 of 6 overall. Let's hope they snap out of it with the help of their new shiny star.@torturecastfacebook.com/torturecasttorturecast.com
