top of the hour on MLB central
and MLB network in the last was
a doozy test to catch you up.
JP maroc reporting that juan
soto and josh bell are headed to
the SAn Diego Padres, they're
going out west, Jeff Passan with
all the details.
Look at these names, Mackenzie
Gore, Luis Robert Hassell c j.
Abrams Susana.
One more major league player, it
is a hall and the deed to the
gaslamp and everything you want
and this from joe Sherman in
case you're wondering if
Eric Hosmer is included is
believed to gain access to all
of this minor league talent
arguably the most ever traded in
one Diehl The Nationals on
taking on Eric Hosmer this from
Jon Heyman, Eric Hosmer is in
the soto.
Diehl as Joel Sherman suggested
so much to unpack as we welcome
you back inside wow what a
deadline day already it is only
knew we got six more hours to go
Mark Feinstein of MLB dot
Eric Hosmer is in the Diehl your
reaction to that and the whole
they got back.
Well anybody be left by six p.m.
last of the deadline.
Well we're out of players, we
said we wanted action right?
Not surprising that Eric Hosmer
is in the Diehl the Padres
trying to dish off some salary,
you know, to get to get soto and
Bell and to give up all these
prospects and the Nationals, the
payroll is not an issue for them
going forward here so they can
take on that Eric Hosmer Diehl
it's not going to impact them,
but obviously they bring in some
huge prospect score Abrams
Hassell guys who they look at as
being a part of the core of this
rebuilding plan to get back to
the top of the N.L. East.
You know, it's interesting
because you had a question that
I was kind of thinking in my
mind, but I didn't ask it to the
Padres give up too much and eric
Nasar researchers said Lauren,
he's a Hall of Fame player right
now.
Highest O.P.S.I think we have a
ball So please.
Plus there's aged 23 season.
These are just the reported
details of the trade.
The numbers.
I mean it's Albert Case thinks
they gave up too much.
He's 23 years old.
I didn't say that.
Yes, you did look at this.
Look at these names, He's a once
in a generational player at 23
also, let's throw in Josh Bell,
Yeah, josh bell changing bat,
wow, the Padres got a lot
better.
It will be interesting to see
that that's a huge hole.
You're throwing your minor
league system.
You know, basically saying, here
you go, we're all obviously
chips are all in for the pot.
That's the amazing thing.
Listen, you're getting the Hall
of Fame type player at 23 years
old for three postseason runs to
pair with manny Machado and
Fernando Tatis Jr.
is the stuff of legend.
Okay, it really is, it's going
to cost you, certainly if I'm
mike Rizzo the three years 39
million on Eric Hosmer Diehl
come on jump aboard.
All right.
Because I'm getting potentially
my shortstop of the future.
My center fielder of the future
, my right fielder of the
future.
A guy who can slide into my
rotation towards the top of it
with Mackenzie, Gore and
Susannah, I mean you here here
dan talk about him.
You can start to imagine this
position player core with the
brady houses of the world that
they're starting to draft Like
in 2025.
Starting to understand it's kind
of what the cubbies did, right,
they draft all the position
players and then go by the yeah
, I wonder if the details are
completely worked out.
It's still nine If you're
Eric Hosmer you're chapped.
I'm sorry, I'm a Nationals fan.
I've been watching the product
just stuff to watch.
Especially he'll go there and
he'll be a pro.
But you were the first guy, you
were the first big signing
there.
You bought into what they were
selling.
They went and got Machado
Fernando Tatis Jr.
came up.
They got darvish, they got all
these guys and it was like, all
right, this team is ready to go
and ready to make something
happen and now they're getting
one.
So two and josh bell away, but
you're part of the trade but
they have overlooked him before
and he has handled it like last
trade deadline.
He was going what?
You know what dan O'Dowd was
just here and he talked about AJ
Preller and how creative he is
when you think about where he
stands right now, he's sitting
in his office, What's he
thinking about?
The fact that he was able to get
josh hater yesterday and it's
like an overlooked piece of
this.
We forgot that they added josh
yesterday and they were able to
add josh hater without giving up
any of these top prospects that
they were still going to try to
use to get Soto.
So yeah, they emptied out the
farm system.
But if this ends up with the
first world championship in team
history, it's totally worth it.
