Ep. 26: Playoff Recap, Free Agency & Trade Scenarios
In our first offseason episode, our good friend and FantasyPros correspondent, Dan Harris, joins Bobby Sylvester to recap the postseason run of the Cubs (0:33), the impressive play of the Indians (5:33), and what the Cubs need to do to make another World Series run (11:41). Then we switch gears and start looking into free agency starting with the big name bat, Yoenis Cespedes (17:17). We then look into the closer market and chat about Aroldis Chapman, Kenley Jansen, Mark Melancon and Greg Holland (21:25) before we start diving into the mid-tier free agents such as Carlos Gomez, Jeremy Hellickson, Ian Desmond, and Sean Rodriguez (28:23). To close out our discussion, we dive into the potential trades that could take place this offseason that could very well include big name pitchers such as Chris Sale, Sonny Gray, Jake Odorizzi, Mike Leake and Zack Greinke (35:05), as well as a few big name hitters including A.J. Pollock, J.D. Martinez, Andrew McCutchen, and Ryan Braun (42:21).
