Anthony Franco joins Darragh McDonald to discuss Rafael Devers refusing to play first base and where that leaves the Red Sox roster moving forward, the Pirates firing Derek Shelton, the Rockies firing Bud Black, and how the Diamondbacks will find playing time for Jordan Lawlar in their already crowded lineup.

Listener question topics include whether the Orioles should extend Cedric Mullins or Tomoyuki Sugano, how real the Twins are following their big winning streak, if the Tigers can keep it up, the struggles of Jordan Walker in St. Louis and if Andrew McCutchen could be a target to replace him, and whether the Mets are better at getting results from pitchers outside their organization than their internal guys.

Steve Adams joins Darragh McDonald to discuss options for the Red Sox at first base including moving Rafael Devers there and calling up number 1 MLB prospect Roman Anthony. They also recap the changes made by the Rangers including sending down Jake Burger, waiving Leody Taveras, calling up Evan Carter and replacing their top offensive coach with former player Bret Boone. Other topics include Kenta Maeda getting DFA'd, the Blue Jays building up rotation depth by adding Spencer Turnbull and Jose Urena, and speculating on how Max Scherzer would fare as a reliever.

Listener question topics include the Orioles bad start to the season and who could be traded if things don't turn around, if the Tigers would consider extending or trading Tarik Skubal at some point in the next two years, and some under-the-radar guys who are quietly having great seasons.

Anthony Franco joins Darragh McDonald for an all-mailbag episode. Question topics include whether the Red Sox should trade Triston Casas to make room for their top prospects, if Rafael Devers needs a change of scenery, whether the Mets should extend Pete Alonso, how much hope to have in the Tigers this year, what qualifies as "success" in a baseball season, what can be done to increase offense in the game, how to further stop teams from tanking, and if Jurickson Profar can be traded while serving his PED suspension.
