Steve Adams joins Darragh McDonald to discuss news that the Pohlad family will retain majority ownership of the Twins, why fans are unhappy about it, and whether it will lead the team to trade guys like Pablo Lopez and Joe Ryan this offseason. Also, what led the Nationals to designate Nathaniel Lowe for assignment and for the Red Sox to sign him, how Josh Hader's capsule sprain will seemingly sideline him for the rest of this season, Zack Wheeler's unknown timeline to return after suffering a blood clot, and how mid-August has become an important time on the calendar in regards to prospect promotion incentives and service time.
Listener question topics include which bullpen guys could potentially be placed on waivers this month to help their teams shed salary, if the Dodgers will target Kyle Tucker this offseason, and the craziest "come from nowhere" teams to make the playoffs and whether there are any possibilities of that happening this year.
