The biggest get of the trade deadline season made his debut for the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night, with hopes that Tarik Skubal could end the mini-skid they had been on. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, as the Chicago Cubs defeated the Dodgers and extended LA's losing streak to five. However, there's no need to panic about the defending back-to-back champs. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman recap Skubal's pretty good debut for his new team and why him landing in Los Angeles ultimately wasn't a shocking outcome. They then dive a little deeper into the actual deal, including the players the Detroit Tigers received in return for Skubal, whether they could've gotten a better deal by waiting until closer to the trade deadline and why there's even more intrigue surrounding the Dodgers this postseason. Later in the show, Jake and Jordan are joined by Boston Red Sox MassLive beat reporter Chris Cotillo to examine how the Red Sox did at the deadline, including the shocking acquisition of Adley Rutschman, the impressive winning stretch they've been on and what turned Craig Breslow into being a little more aggressive than we've been used to seeing. The guys then close the show by highlighting George Lombard Jr.'s impressive debut for the New York Yankees, the "new" look Philadelphia Phillies post-deadline and Jacob deGrom reportedly blocking a trade to the Atlanta Braves. ] 1:14 - The Opener: Skubal's first Dodgers start 20:48 - The return for the Tigers 30:10 - Chris Cotillo joins the show 38:02 - How good are the Red Sox? 49:45 - End of the Marcello Mayer era in Boston 55:51 - We Need To Talk About: Lombard Jr.'s debut 1:06:38 - Around The League Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
