Tigers trade? NFL free agent landing spots.

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): Now that we're coming to the end of the offseason and storming into spring training we thought it was a great time to catch up with a man who has helped shape the roster-building conversations, agent Scott Boras. Bradfo talks with Boras at the Alex Bregman press conference, not only detailing the Red Sox' pursuit of the infielder but also reflecting on a very lucrative offseason for many of Boras' clients. We follow up that sit-down by chopping it up with pitcher Patrick Sandoval, who might be one of the more intriguing starting pitching acquisitions despite an elbow injury that will sideline him for at least the first few months.

Episode Summary: In this episode, I dive into a key aspect of the Cubs' roster—bench depth—and why improving it could make a huge impact in 2025. Last season, the Cubs' bench was a major weakness, and I break down the numbers on just how bad it was. But with several offseason additions and some intriguing prospects, is the bench finally a strength? I also check in on the latest Alex Bregman rumors and discuss whether the Cubs should pursue a veteran bench bat like Justin Turner or Mark Canha. Key Topics Covered:

Spring Training kicks off this week for MLB clubs, with many players already reporting to their club sites to get ready for the marathon that starts next month. However, for free-agent third baseman Alex Bregman, he still doesn't know where, or when, he'll be reporting to camp.Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss Bregman still waiting for Scott Boras to broker a deal between one of the teams that have shown interest, and those who should be, in the services of the All-Star infielder, including the Houston Astros, Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs and Detroit Tigers. They also talk about why this is the possible consequence of playing the waiting game and what kind of contract he can expect at this point.Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys are joined by former All-Star and four-time Gold Glove first baseman Eric Hosmer, as they dive into his career, including success off of Chris Sale and Clayton Kershaw, his adventures playing the outfield and his clutch gene that led to nine career walk-offs. Jake and Jordan then talk about some of the other moves around baseball before discussing what a baseball career for Patrick Mahomes might've looked like. (1:29) - Is it baseball season?(7:46) - The Opener: Where will Alex Bregman sign?(22:27) - Eric Hosmer joins the show(35:08) - Hosmer on how hitting has changed(44:51) - Where didn't Hosmer homer?(53:26) - Around The League: Padres, Dodgers make moves(59:35) - BBQ Homework: What does a Patrick Mahomes baseball career look like? Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

Over the weekend, the Houston Astros were finally able to trade reliever Ryan Pressly to the Chicago Cubs after he agreed to waive his no-trade clause and sign off on the deal. With the trade going through and some money being saved, could this mean the Astros are willing to bring back a familiar face at third base?Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss whether the Pressly-Cubs trade could indicate that Houston is trying to find funds to re-sign Alex Bregman and reunite him with Jose Altuve, something the second baseman has said he's willing to do by moving to the outfield to help accommodate the team. Even though the Astros have, in theory, moved on from the two-time All-Star based on the moves they've made, perhaps a reunion could be in the cards now.Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys talk about comments made by New York Mets owner Steve Cohen at Amazin' Day, which suggest he might be drawing a line in the sand regarding bringing back Pete Alonso and why he may be showing agent Scott Boras he's done being taken advantage of. Later, Jake and Jordan discuss some controversy in the LIDOM championship that might involve a corked bat, as well as the Washington Nationals doing something they've never done before. (1:28) - The Opener: Possible Bregman reunion(17:54) - What can Cubs expect from Pressly?(22:56) - Kind of a Big Deal: Cohen comments on Alonso(36:46) - LIDOM championship controversy(46:20) - Around the League: Nationals sign Shinnosuke Ogasawara Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
