Jake Mintz & Jordan Shusterman discuss the Padres-Marlins trade that sent Luis Arraez to San Diego, as well as recap all the action from this weekend in baseball and send birthday wishes to hall-of-famer Willie Mays.
The Minnesota Twins had not yet completed their 11th straight win on Friday night when word broke that former Twin Luis Arraez was being traded. Guys with multiple batting titles on their resume at age 27 seldom get traded even once. Arraez has now been swapped almost immediately after each of his. Hitting for average is not as highly valued as it was even a generation ago, but it's not a worthless skill, either.
"It’s hard to have a comp to Tony Gwynn, but if there is one in our modern game, now we have him on our team. And that just feels right."
