Bees?

Beads?!

Would Dylan Floro make sense for the Cubs? He should be cheaper to attain than many other relievers, but does have closing experience and is having a solid year. What type of deal would it take to land him from the Nats? Thanks.
Mark P
9:14
Floro is a rental player, so the Cubs wouldn't have to give up much.  Maybe a lottery ticket kind of prospect?

Will the royals be active in bats that are available for trade? Thanks for your great work!
Mark P

The Royals were aggressive enough last winter that if they're in the running by July, they'll surely get some extra hitting into the mix.

Will Cleveland actually improve the club before the deadline or ride it out with what they have?
Mark P
9:17
Likewise to the Royals answer, I'd expect the Guards to do something, but payroll is also a factor in everything Cleveland does.

Speaking of the Guardians, their awesome City Connect jerseys are getting near-unanimous praise on social media.

Padres have to be chasing another starting pitcher, yes?
Mark P

Very likely.  It would be funny if the Padres just kept swinging deals with Miami.

Do you think anyone in NLC has a legit chance at a world series trophy (hopefully brewers)?
Mark P
9:20
The Brewers or Cubs wouldn't be my first picks to win it all, but as long as a team is in the tournament, anything can happen
