00:00Since school came back and pitched and pitch reasonably well and pitched what appears to
00:06be without pain, it is rekindled school trade talk and Jeff Passan baseball insider went
00:15on Rich Eisen, his show to talk about the trade ability of school ball and all right,
00:23what does he think is going to happen?
00:25Here's what Passan told Eisen.
00:50He is a great one.
00:52He is a great one.
00:53Next, he was a great one.
00:53He wasn't the one, but the other one did not say the other one.
00:53Here's what the one said.
00:58He did not say the other one.
01:13okay so a couple things out of this one is espn put together a list ranking the top 100 mlb
01:21trade
01:22candidates and the number one guy on the list was scoobal 85 chance of be traded and the chance of
01:28him being traded was 85 oh yeah uh but do you think it's that high do you because we're here
01:36right
01:37we're in it yeah we we know that scott harris is what he said but do you like i when
01:43i saw that
01:43number 85 i went i'm not thinking he's less than 50 i was surprised it was listed at 85 i'm
01:51trying
01:51to take my own feelings out of this and and what i would do because i've said i still think
01:56you can
01:56trade scoobal and still compete um to make the the playoffs i don't think you're necessarily
02:01winning the world series but i think you can make the playoffs if you still if you trade scoobal
02:04because the pitching is that good but if i take my feelings out of it what i would do
02:09and just try to think about the tigers from the tiger standpoint i mean they're going to think
02:14that the best chance to win is is having scoobal in on the roster and that clock is ticking every
02:21day we get closer and closer to april or to august 3rd uh which is the trade deadline and you
02:27find
02:27yourself still however many games out of the wild card spot and out of the first place and this many
02:33games below 500 it looks like that number is is getting bigger and bigger but i don't know i i
02:39think
02:4085 might be a little high too um and and i think it might be high in in some regards
02:46because i think
02:47the tigers and rightfully so should have a very high valued opinion of what terrick scoobal should
02:53get you in trade and the hope would be from us is that you get a bidding war between teams
02:58hey
02:59now we want your your best and final offer here on april on august 2nd and you've got the dodgers
03:05bidding against the brewers bidding against tampa bidding against you know whatever it is and and
03:10then you could just pick and choose but i still think it's it seems a little high at 85 percent
03:14but we'll see how the next couple weeks go and then it can make be kind of more obvious
03:20so let's call for some self-reflection you and me maybe one of the reasons why 85 seems high for
03:27us
03:29is because we are moderately optimistic about this team getting back into this thing
03:37we've been talking about who's coming back forever and you know i guess the door we
03:44we tend to not slam the door as early as some others um and so that might be why we
03:50think it's
03:50high 85 and you know we we get accused of of stuff and one of the things is being overly
03:58optimistic and
03:59sorry but but it is i i recognize that that might be the case part of it was you know
04:05when you hunker
04:05down and talk about a team for every every day and you look at the way baseball seasons have gone
04:10with
04:10them recently it feels like they really are capable of a hot streak like hotter than than the beginning
04:16of may's even been or june yeah beginning of june yeah sorry i may was awful i i look at
04:22this and say
04:22okay if if the number were at 75 i wouldn't balk at that i don't think you know the chances
04:28of trading
04:28terek school where it's 75 yeah i could see that um but 85 seems a little high not that i
04:35mean they're
04:35both high numbers it seems like it'll it'll suss itself out right we'll figure it out it's it's not
04:41that big of a deal it's not like oh my god i can't believe it's 85 but it just seems
04:45a little
04:45little high given where we are in the calendar and what the landscape is in the american league in
04:50particular because you know so there's literally like three really good teams in the american league
04:54and everybody else is fighting to 500 500 puts you in a playoff spot so if if they can and
05:01500
05:01isn't a huge ask it's a bigger ask when you get yourself this 13 game hole but you they started
05:09to
05:09dig out a little bit here but it's still a long way to go well we'll i mean with with
05:13claver torres out
05:14we don't know how long you know if claver torres goes back on the il that could really torpedo things
05:19doesn't help so out of this story and and scuba being listed as the number one candidate
05:27to be traded there is a couple sentences here that are really encouraging if you are in the trade
05:36scuba camp and we will tell you what those are coming up today at 10 48 it's karshen anderson open
05:42lines 248-539-9797 97 97 1
