The Philadelphia Phillies bolstered their pitching rotation by trading for left-hander Jesús Luzardo from the Miami Marlins, giving up prospects Starlyn Caba and Emaarion Boyd in return, along with receiving minor league catcher Paul McIntosh. Meanwhile, the Cleveland Guardians reshuffled their infield by trading All-Star first baseman Josh Naylor to the Arizona Diamondbacks for right-handed pitcher Slade Cecconi and a Competitive Balance Round B draft pick, then promptly signed veteran first baseman Carlos Santana to a one-year, $12 million deal to fill the gap at first base. Additionally, the Chicago White Sox acquired left-handed relief pitcher Cam Booser from the Boston Red Sox in exchange for minor league pitcher Yhoiker Fajardo, aiming to strengthen their bullpen with Booser’s solid performance from the previous season.

🕵️♂️ Transcript:
just a few days after the Guardians shipped out their Platinum glove second baseman Andre simz they completed a full trade of the right side of the infield their first baseman Josh Naylor he’s a diamondback you guys have been spamming me on social media fuzzy what’s your opinion on this trade did you get fleeced what do you make of this well that’s what today’s video is for but I’m going to save that for later in the video because we actually have another breaking trade to talk about Jesus lazardo he’s no longer a Marlin Jesus is a Philadelphia Philly but let’s talk about what Miami got in return before we talk about losardo going to Philly buying a hat for every team in baseball has been the greatest investment I’ve ever made all right let’s talk about the Marlins why does it look like someone was drooling on my hat what is going on all right that looks a little bit better but let’s talk about the full trade for starting pitcher Jesus lazardo the Marlins they are trying to acquire almost every Prospect in baseball it seems like they are picking up two prospects from the Phillies the first one 19-year-old shortstop Starlin cabba or cabba I don’t exactly know how to say his whole name because I just found out he existed 5 seconds ago starling cabba instantly slots in as the number three Prospect for the Marlins and the entire farm system for the Marlins has completely been revamped because of Peter bendex I mean he’s been making trades left and right everyone is in play right now even Sandy Alcantara I’m going to say that is it alantra it’s alcantra sorry Starin has absolutely no pop thus far in his young minor league career but he puts the ball in play he takes his walks and he can wreak havoc on the bases so that’s kind of the theme for the two prospects that are going back to the Marlins they can play their position and they’re really really fast same for the 21-year-old Outfield Prospect amarian Boyd now if I say their age they might not be that exact age right now but that’s going to be their age for the 2025 season so remember that context amarian Boyd is pretty much the exact same story as Starin absolutely no pop to begin his monly career but maybe they can grow into their bodies and put on some muscle but Boyd can flat out motor around the bases as well he doesn’t walk as much as Starin but hey Miami they are simply looking for toolsy a it guys to form a super team in the future with the power guys that they acquired with a devision de los Santos and Augustine Ramirez from the Yankees they’re trying to get some auxiliary pieces around the big Power bats that they’ve Acquired and uh yeah that’s basically it let’s talk about the Phillies now the Phillies actually picked up two different players I’ll talk about 27-year-old catcher Paul msh sorry again I’ve never heard of these guys before Paul mckintosh he is a solid bat for a catching Prospect last year he had 12 home runs and a 118 WRC plus that’s just another version of Ops plus don’t over complicate it but at ablea again a 120ish WRC plus 12 home runs we are not looking at the JT Ruto replacement do not get it twisted but could he come up and have a few spot starts yeah but the big fish in this trade yes full pun intended a former Marlin he’s going to the Phillies now 27-year-old starting pitcher Jesus lazardo he’s kind of a Cody Bellinger esque type of trade because Bellinger and lazardo both regressed in 2024 based off their stats and their health updates you have to remember that lazardo and Bellinger are former top prospects and they’ve shown flashes of greatness throughout their young career so Jesus Lardo had a 3.3 eray and a near 11 strikeouts per nine in 2022 in 2023 he had similar strikeout numbers and a 3.6 e r so nothing otherworldly like an MVP belly but all of that aside maybe that comparison doesn’t even make sense 2024 was a year to forget for Jesus Lazaro because he could not stay healthy and because of that he had a huge dip in his strikeout percentage his strikeouts dropped almost 8% now when healthy lazardo and that fast ball slider combination is lethal because Jesus throws 9798 99 as a starting pitcher I think I’ve seen him hit Triple digits a few times throughout his young career the change up even looked better last year than the years prior so when the Phillies can go Zack Wheeler Aaron Nola Ranger Suarez Jesus lazardo Christopher Sanchez that means no more Taiwan Walker Christmas came early for Phillies fans Taiwan Walker you are a c Colorado Rocky Philadelphia is still very much a juggernaut Powerhouse of a team that starting rotation is absolutely bananas and you have to remember that they’ve kept Andrew painter who could be a future Garett Cole type of starting pitcher Ace guy Mick AEL also a similar build Justin Crawford Aiden Miller they’ve kept all of their top prospects who could be big-time players pretty soon I don’t know anything about Starland cabba or a Maran Boyd so if you’re a Marlins fan I just simply want to say dude I’m so sorry 2025 is going to be rough unless these guys shock the world and they’re just really good out the gate even at a young age I don’t know what the Marlins are doing but I guess the process is trust Peter Bendix because he used to be with the Rays and we know what the Rays do with players that we don’t really know about so that’s the Jesus lazardo to the Phillies trade in a nutshell now for the moment that you’ve all been waiting for let’s see a Guardians reaction to Josh Naylor being shipped out to the Diamondbacks currently Josh Naylor is 27 years old but by the time that the 2025 season comes around he’ll be 28 years old now let me try and explain Josh Naylor and his career thus far in Cleveland so he was acquired from the Padre’s a few years ago he was in that big Fran Mill Reyes Mike cger trade also I completely forgot about this but that knuckle baller that we all know and love in MLB the show Matt Waldren he was sent from Cleveland with Mike cger for Josh Naylor the more you know but anyways Josh Naylor really struggled to begin his career with the guardians but in 2022 he found his shde he popped off for 20 home runs and a 120 Ops play he got even better out of nowhere he looked like a contact hitter he hit 310 in 2023 with a whopping 130 Ops plus then this past season in 2024 he was an RBI machine he had 31 home runs and 108 RBI and defensively I know he’s not great with the range or anything like that but take it for me as a guy who watched Josh pretty often he’s fantastic at Scoops and picks he’s great at that over there at first base so if someone makes a bad throw he’s going to make up for it and that’s why people are asking fuzzy what do you make of this trade where are you going to find that power production in your minor league system or do you think you’re going to go grab another guy well yes the Guardians already replaced Josh Naylor before we talk about that replacement let’s talk about the cons of Josh Naylor Josh Naylor had an awful second half of 2024 he had a 717 Ops in the second half and that’s just a smidge better than his career Ops of 682 in the post season he had some of the worst that bats I’ve ever seen his pitch recognition seemingly has gotten worse every single season he barely bats 220 versus lefties and he’s a free agent after next year so I don’t know if this is going to be a rental for the Diamondbacks and then they give the keys to the city to a different guy maybe they Shuffle some guys around a lot of Guardians fans have waited and said hey Diamondbacks fans a con that you have to consider and I fluctuate with my weight a lot so I’ve struggled with my weight all my life so I’m not judging but the Josh Naylor weight Arc it’s interesting but when Josh Nayer is going right and he’s able to play a full 50-ish games and maybe weight had something to do with him dipping off in the second half he’s insane win healthy he had 20 home runs 58 RBI and an 840 Ops in his first 72 games last year that’s very very good production you can’t find that very often from a 27-year-old first baseman maybe you don’t think it’s fair to criticize his weight but when you’re playing that many games at a premium position you want to make sure that if you’re investing that much into a guy that he can make it a full 162 and then into October I think that’s fair but I know a lot of people are going to say hey that’s out of bounds fuzzy dude I struggle with my weight I get it so that is the Christian Walker replacement in Arizona Josh Naylor who is the Josh ner replacement in Cleveland well right now it seems to be Carlos Santana this will be his third sent with Cleveland he’s going to be 39 years old and he absolutely mashed lefties last year so he’s getting $12 million to most likely be a platoon DH first baseman with KY manzardo check this out Santana hit 290 with a 930 5 Ops Plus versus lefties 935 Ops plus that would be insane sorry about that a 935 Ops versus lefties last year he also won a gold glove so he can maybe shed some wisdom onto Kyle manzardo who’s not very good defensively like hey Kyle this is how you pick it this is how you go backand this is how you know how far to get off once you’re not covering your position anymore he’s a valuable commodity and I’m down with this Kyle manzardo versus Ry Carlos Santana shedding his defensive wisdom on Manzo and raking lefties yes sir that replaces Naylor right there but now let’s talk about who the guardians got in return for Josh Naylor so the first small thing they get a competitive B pick it’s a draft pick that’s usually like a second third fourth round pick well let’s focus on 26-year-old Slade Sone one of my favorite names in baseball he was a first-rounder back in 2020 so he’s got first round pedigree he doesn’t walk anyone and his fast ball can get up to 98 mph but the problem is we just talked about he doesn’t walk anyone sometimes times he has the same issue as Emanuel CL he’s too accurate he he throws too many strikes but here’s one little wrinkle that I discovered about slates and Cony two teams tried to acquire him over the last year Cleveland and the Tampa Bay Rays who do we know as the pitching factories in baseball the Rays and the Guardians so what do those two franchises see in Slade well he’s 6’4 he’s young so there’s a lot of Team control he has Elite extension let me try and explain extension so again slay throws about 96 on average but he can get up to 98 mph extension simply is how far are you extending towards home plate before you throw the ball so basically if you have two guys who throw 98 but one guy has longer extension the perceived velocity of the guy with longer extension might actually be 100 mph even though it’s not 100 mph but the perceived velocity you have less time to see it it’s perceived at a higher velocity science I mean we just saw Cleveland turned Matthew Boyd into Prime Sandy kofax and they made it Ben Lively almost look like an ace yeah you’re telling me 26-year-old former first-rounder slay Sone is going to the pitching lab the voodoo magic Guardians yeah sign me up some might call it a flee job I think that Josh Naylor is going to be an absolute Maniac with the Arizona Diamondbacks but we were never going to retain him that’s not how the Guardians work they don’t like guys who chase that’s why honor am menz is gone that’s why Josh Naylor is gone and they’re going to rely on a ky manzardo Carlos Santana platoon at first base they’re going to rely on a Juan breedo an offensive first second baseman and who knows maybe we see the super Prospect chase the Lauder who a lot of people are saying could be the next Kyle Tucker out there in right field if those hit damn so let me know do you think that the Guardians took too long to ship out nether maybe they should have traded him last year kind of like how they botched the Lindor trade they traded him a year too late and what do you think about Josh nether replacing Walker at least for 2025 on the Diamondbacks he’s pretty much 80% of Christian Walker offensively defensively they’re not close at all but hey a saw little bridge going into 2026 and last last but not least the guy who made the rookie movie come to real life camb Boozer he retired in 2017 he was a carpenter in Seattle living a normal life before he found out during a youth camp that he could still throw 9798 he’s been traded from the Red Sox to the white sock so another socks for Soxs trade I just wanted to bring him up because again he’s kind of like the rookie movie come to real life he had a 2.9 eay in the first half after making his debut at 32 years old fell off in the second half but I’m hoping that he can regain that first half self and be dealt to a Contender after the All-Star break that would be a lot of fun
