Guardians Were Aggressive at the Deadline and Nobody Saw It Coming

Ken and Anthony break down a Guardians trade deadline that stunned them, with Cleveland landing Joe Adell, Nathaniel Lowe, and pitcher Foster Griffin while giving up relatively little. They dig into how the new bats fit as a lefty/righty platoon, praise Foster Griffin's unlikely path to the majors, and note the ripple effect on the rotation, including Gavin Williams potentially sliding to the bullpen. The two also wrestle with crediting ownership for finally being aggressive, weighing the Luis Castillo trade as a contrast, and ask callers whether the Guardians can now be taken seriously as an American League contender.
