Riz Wills Rizzo to The Bronx, Mets Tell Kumar to Take a Hike, Trade Deadline Craziness

Joe Rizzo brings you baseball. Riz & "The Dawg" Jeff Healy give you something different in this podcast about baseball and life. Find another show that's been talking about (Cousin) Anthony Rizzo going to the Yankees since the off-season. While other outlets saw this as a stunner, our Diehard fans were ahead of the game. Riz willed this one to happen for months. And he even showed off the Rizzo jersey and the Yankees Italian hat. The guys dove in on every deal that happened at the deadline, with a condensed look at player movement and what the deals meant for both sides, in an easily digestible discussion. There was a focus on the movement of Cubs stars Rizzo, Javy Baez and Kris Bryant, plus the Dodgers' big moves and what they could mean in the future for ... the Yankees? Yes, the Yankees! Kumar Rocker was drafted 10th overall by the Mets, who declined to sign him. Dawg recapped this unusual happening and the circumstances around it, while Riz (with help from MLB.com's Anthony DiComo's article here: https://www.mlb.com/news/kumar-rocker-does-not-sign-with-mets) cited some examples of how similar situations have panned out in the recent decade. Dawg kicked it off with Veteran of the Day. It was Capt. Dave Winans, US Air Force Academy grad and intelligence officer. Capt. Winans worked in South Korea debriefing North Korean defectors.
