From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): Gordo and Sammy react to Pat's "Who Says No" proposal that goes within the division and the Sox finding their right-handed hitter with the Rays' Yandy Diaz. Would Boston and Tampa agree to send Diaz up north and which familiar bullpen arm would be included? Also, the guys question Diaz' fit as a position, but an additional move involving Masataka Yoshida could solve that problem. And, how much better would the Sox lineup against lefties do with Diaz in the mix?

PHNX BLACK FRIDAY! Up to 75% off! https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/phnx-locker We are searching for Black Friday deals for the Diamondbacks at first base, but they may have already found their own deal in hiring Wellington Cepeda as their bullpen and assistant pitching coach. They might in fact be giving out the best deal of the season once again with their $299 Ballpark Pass. Meanwhile, we discuss if adding Yandy Diaz via trade or Justin Turner via free agency makes the most sense for the Snakes and their shopping budget. We also dream about adding Cam Skattebo to the D-backs roster after he confessed that if he wasn't playing football for ASU he would be mashing dingers in baseball.

On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey reacts to the Pirates comeback victory against the Houston Astros on Tuesday night, in which Michael A. Taylor's late homer ensured another strong start by Paul Skenes did not go to waste. He also talks GM Ben Cherington's remaining options before the MLB trade deadline. Will he make a move for remaining potential targets like the Tampa Bay Rays' Yandy Diaz, the Miami Marlins' Bryan De La Cruz or the Los Angeles Angels' Taylor Ward or will he stand pat? Then later, Jason analyzes Monday's trades: Pitcher Quinn Priester to the Boston Red Sox for minor league infielder Nick Yorke. And minor league pitcher Luis Peralta to the Colorado Rockies for reliever Jalen Beeks.
They have to make a substantial move for us to be satisfied, like a Brent Rooker, Yandy Diaz, Bryan De La Cruz, or Kevin Pillar paired with another bat.
Hour one with Joe Starkey and Paul Zeise. Will the Pirates make a move? They have to make a substantial move for us to be satisfied, like a Brent Rooker, Yandy Diaz, Bryan De La Cruz, or Kevin Pillar paired with another bat. Ben Cherington said 'you have to be comfortable saying no.' We're frustrated with both Nutting and Cherington failing to greenlight anything and they both have different reasons to be blamed.
Hour 2 of the Killer B's with Jeremy Branham and Joel Blank! This hour included... What should the Astros do in the last hour before the trade deadline? Astros still in the race to acquire Yandy Diaz. Astros frustrating loss versus the Pirates yesterday. Cash em or trash em? More trade deadline talk
Tampa Bay Rays pre-post game host Ronnie Lane joined the show. Ronnie talked about why the Rays are so good at executing trades. The guys recapped the horrific Chris Archer trade from 2019. Should the Pirates make a move on Yandy Diaz? Ronnie thinks he'd be a fantastic addition to the clubhouse and lineup. Ronnie talked about the transition the Rays are going through this season as sellers.
Trade Deadline Roundtable – The Pirates are now ‘out' on Yandy Diaz. Who are some names to look out for? Jason likes the idea of Bryan De La Cruz from the Marlins. Is that a player with enough pop to make a difference? Jason also thinks there could be a negative impact in the clubhouse, not just the fanbase, if the Pirates don't do anything. Why did they lose out on Jazz Chisholm and how close were they truly to getting him? Is Michael A. Taylor a real answer in centerfield down the stretch?
Trade Deadline day is here. Will the Pirates do something of significance? So far, it's been very minor moves. Will the GM make a spark? Another valiant effort to win last night putting this team in the thick of it, but the effort has yet to be reciprocated by the ownership and general manager. What do fans think the Pirates will do in the next few hours? Tampa Bay Rays pre-post game host Ronnie Lane joined the show. Ronnie talked about why the Rays are so good at executing trades. The guys recapped the horrific Chris Archer trade from 2019. Should the Pirates make a move on Yandy Diaz? Ronnie thinks he'd be a fantastic addition to the clubhouse and lineup.

The Daily Dog is your home for Underdog picks for Thursday. Each day host Britton Hess gives you his favorite Underdog plays for MLB, tennis, UFC, NFL and more! Subscribe for your Daily Dog! Today's show features Underdog Picks for Thursday, July 11th, 2024 in Major League Baseball. I start out with the show slip, then move onto The Daily Do(n)g Squad - a Underdog Picks Flex play with three players to hit a homerun. Today's Underdog picks are all for hitters to have HIGHER than 0.5 Total BasesI start out with the Rockies at Reds. Austin Slater is a new member of the Reds, but got a hit in his first game with the team. He is coming back versus Austin Gomber, a pitcher he faced plenty of times when he was batting for the Giants back in the NL West. Next I target Isaac Paredes of the Rays vs Nestor Cortes and the Yankees. Paredes has succeeded in this matchup before, I believe he will do it again. Lastly I am backing a guy who has the potential to be a future MLB star. The Athletics young outfielder, Lawrence Butler. Butler has been seeing the ball well in Boston and I believe he will continue his hit streak at Fenway Park. My three plays together yield a 3.26x return on your money!Let's go back to back with show slips, lets get another Daily Do(n)g Squad winner. The Daily Do(n)g squad features some guys with EXCELLENT value on this maxed out multiplier flex slip.I am targeting Yandy Diaz, he has gone yard 3 times on Nestor Cortes, do it again big guy.Next I go to Christian Yelich, he is seeing the ball well, and Paul Skenes of the Pirates brings the velocity. The last dong squad member is Rafael Devers, in a matchup vs a righty with wind blowing out at Fenway Park, I have full faith that the young Red Sox star can hit the ball over the wall. If this slip goes three for three you get 75x return on your money. If it goes two out of three you still get 13.81x back. New to Underdog Fantasy?
