MLB Trade Rumors Podcast
The Cubs Get Active, Marcus Stroman and Jordan Hicks
MLBTR founder Tim Dierkes joins Darragh McDonald to discuss the Cubs landing free agent Shota Imanaga as well as trading for Michael Busch from the Dodgers, the Yankees bolstering their rotation by signing Marcus Stroman and whether that will stop them from pursuing other pitching upgrades, and the Giants signing Jordan Hicks and their plan to transition him into a starter.
Listener question topics include whether the Pirates have given up on their stated plans to add a starting pitcher, why teams allow agents to create false reports to use as leverage, and why MLB has such a strong resistance to a salary cap.
