Free Agent Power Rankings: Midseason Edition and Aroldis Chapman to the Rangers
Anthony Franco joins Darragh McDonald to give a midseason update to the Free Agent Power Rankings. There is a surplus of top pitchers available and a noticeable lack of hitters. They discuss why guys like Julio Urias and Aaron Nola fell and why Lucas Giolito and NPB star Yoshinobu Yamamoto are climbing the ranks. Also, where do unpredictable players like Blake Snell and Jeimer Candelario belong on the list?
Moving to the trade market, the guys analyze the Royals trading Aroldis Chapman to Texas a full month before the deadline, whether they believe the Padres’ chairman’s comments that they are still going for it, and the expectation that the Brewers will hold on to Corbin Burnes and Willy Adames.
