On this week’s episode of Long Gone, the boys break down one of the wildest MLB trade deadlines in recent memory, headlined by Tarik Skubal’s blockbuster trade to the Dodgers. They debate whether the move has fundamentally altered the league’s competitive balance, if the 2027 season is already in jeopardy, and whether the Tigers ever realistically had a chance to keep their ace. They also examine Detroit’s return and ask whether it was enough to justify parting with one of the game’s best pitchers.
With the dust settling, the boys each pick three teams that won the trade deadline and three teams that completely missed the mark, breaking down which front offices set themselves up for October—and which may have set their franchises back.
They round out the show with Fantasy Factory and Collection Corner.
