Welcome to the Summer Mailbag Series! Tomorrow is the MLB trade deadline and you all had some questions! Questions not exactly about the deadline but about trades in general! How did Jeff Conine make it to the Marlins? How did that trade go down? Is this how most trades go down? Someone asked me about Cincinnati Reds ownership and if they knew the Diamond Sports fiasco was on its way so they cut spending. Interesting. Someone asked me about trading for a player with a checkered past. This was based off someone like Antonio Brown. How is this handled?

0:00 – Intro
0:45 – Trade deadline incoming!
7:30 – Conine to Marlins
25:40 – TV Money for team spending
34:50 – Trading for bad news bears

Welcome to the Summer Mailbag Series! Let’s start with a question about some college advice. Someone asked for advice to a college sophomore that was interested in sports administration. Do teams have insurance coverage on players? Does insurance cover all expenses on an injured player? What about Fernando Tatis Jr and his suspension or motorcycle accident? Elly De La Cruz first home run ball was caught by a young fan. The kid held out for a trade. He got meet and greets, signed baseballs, signed hats, signed bat. Was that good enough? What is Big League Advantage? Why do players sign up for this? Is it worth it?

0:00 – Intro
0:45 – College Advice
12:00 – Insurance on players
22:55 – Tatis suspension
24:30 – De La Cruz merch

Northwestern has fired its baseball coach after one season. Two days after firing its football coach for the same hostile work environment. Review: Asteroid City. Is ESPN for sale? Maybe. Maybe not.
