00:00My favorite thing about the deadline probably was the narrative that started to pop up on Twitter that all of
00:06the Dodgers prospects are fraudulent and move down in rankings after they're traded.
00:11I feel like it's just like the proof that we're in just the dumbest timeline or reality possible that people
00:18think that that sort of thing is possible.
00:21Yeah, so the D-backs went into it looking to add a starting pitcher, looking to add a left-handed
00:27bat, ideally at like first base or DH, and then open to that bat being an outfielder.
00:34They didn't end up with the starting pitcher. They didn't end up with the first baseman. They wound up with
00:39Lars Nublar, who's a nice player and has helped them here in his first couple of games, getting on base
00:46and doing that sort of thing.
00:47The D-backs haven't been very good against right-handed pitching, so Nupar helps there.
00:51But yeah, I mean, Mike Hazen, the general manager, was super pissed the day of the deadline. Things just did
01:01not go his way.
01:03I think that when they had agreed to the Clay Holmes deal and while they were waiting for the Mets
01:10to finalize it, other pitchers that they had interest in went off the board.
01:16And they didn't have time to regroup and land somebody else after the Mets came back and said, nope, sorry,
01:25we don't want this guy.
