About this episode
The Nats returned from the All Star Break with a hapless 10-1 defeat in Arizona. Mark (Live from Phoenix) & Al begin by catching everyone up from the Juan Soto scuttlebutt as his future was the main storyline while the Baseball world gathered in Los Angeles. Even his flight from D.C. to L.A. drew headlines that lingered all week. Have the chances of him being dealt increased because of this?
(22:03) The offense had another poor evening as they were being no hit until the 6th inning and ultimately ended with only three hits. Cesar Hernandez had two of the hits with Soto going 1 for 4. Mark puts in perspective of how rough the offense might be after the trade deadline.
(25:34) Patrick Corbin was tagged with the loss on Friday as he allowed five runs in as many innings. His name has surfaced in Soto trade talks as a way for the Nationals to possibly unload his contract. What are the odds of that happening?
(33:40) Washington already signed Elijah Green, who they drafted #5 overall last week. What are the expected next steps for the outfielder?
