In this episode, we break down the surprising trade between the Boston Red Sox and the St. Louis Cardinals involving veteran starter Sonny Gray. We look at why the Red Sox were willing to add an experienced, innings-eating arm and receive 20 million dollars, and what makes Gray’s recent performance more valuable than his ERA suggests. We also dive into the upside of Richard Fitts and Brandon Clarke for a rebuilding Cardinals club, how this deal fits both teams’ long-term plans, and what it could mean for the AL and NL races in the next few seasons.
