FanGraphs Audio: Dan Szymborski and Jason Martinez Judge the Moves

Episode 934

Now that the FanGraphs staff has recovered from the trade deadline, we bring you divine discussion about last week’s many moves as well as some draft fallout.

To kick things off, Dan Szymborski and Jason Martinez get together to tackle the flurry of transactions we saw last week. The duo gives a thumbs up or thumbs down to all 30 clubs for their deadline, with some judged more for the moves they didn’t make than the ones they did. Dan and Jason also discuss the excellence of Robbie Ray, the impact of a healthy Chris Sale on Boston’s rotation, and the Padres doing their best to keep up in the NL West. [2:40]
Following that, Eric Longenhagen is joined by Brendan Gawlowski to talk about the Kumar Rocker situation. Brendan recently wrote about the Mets’ failure to sign the 10th overall pick, which feels like the fault of both the organization and the draft itself. Eric and Brendan discuss how and why this happened, as well as some of the other current failures of the draft as an exercise. The pair also consider the history of draft medical mishaps, the Mets whiffing on having a safety pick, the other players who didn’t sign this year, and why the industry can be so slow to innovate and progress. [50:01]
