128 | Minnesota Twins Top Prospects, Jack is Back!
127 | Playing General Manager: Minnesota Twins
Minnesota Twins President of Baseball Operations Derek Falvey has made it clear that he does not want to use the term rebuild. “We’re going to find a way to invest in next year’s team,” Falvey said last October. “This is not with an eye toward five years down the line.”
Peter and Aram took that to heart, so they are here to play general manager in an attempt to help the Twins contend. Check out the full breakdown on justbaseball.com.

112 | Lieutenant Governor of Georgia Geoff Duncan Talks Baseball
Jack and Peter had a tough weekend in football, so let's talk some baseball. The guys bring on the Lieutenant Governor of Georgia Geoff Duncan to do just that. A politician talking baseball? He's not any old politician, Geoff was drafted by the Marlins in 1996 and had a pretty solid minor league career before entering the political spectrum. The three talk about the state of the minor leagues, the lockout, and how he felt when the All-Star game was moved from Atlanta to Denver.

109 | Marcus Stroman is a Cub, Chris Taylor is a Dodger, Freddie Freeman remains unsigned??
Jack and Peter are confused. So many deals, so many questions. Are the cubs rebuilding? Nope! They are re-tooling. Marcus Stroman signed a three-year, $71 Million deal with Cubs, and they can't believe it. Chris Taylor was one of the most impactful free agents on the market, and of course, the Dodgers grabbed him. Freddie Freeman remains unsigned, Alex Cobb is a Giant, Rasiel Iglesias is an Angel, James Paxton is a Red Sox, and so much more.

JACK AND PETER ARE FREAKING OUT. Mainly Peter, because he's heavily caffeinated. It's a good thing because this has been the craziest 24 hours in baseball. The guys bring on Ryan Finkelstein, who covers everything Mets and beyond for Just Baseball to talk about the Max Scherzer signing and the rest of Steve Cohen's moves. The Mets weren't the only team making deals, so Peter and Jack have you covered.

Peter's Dad is a four-time fantasy baseball champion, so he gets his chance to brag to his "baseball insider" son, who he routinely beats at his own game.

Peter and Jack are back with a laundry list of items. Seiya Suzuki was just posted by the Hiroshima Toyo Carp, and is now available to sign with all 30 MLB teams. The guys give you a full profile on Suzuki, and why teams should be excited to grab him. The Blue Jays just signed Jose Berrios to a 7 year, $131 million deal, is it worth it? Noah Syndergaard vs. Mike Francesa was hilarious, and Clint Frazier is no longer a Yankee.

Jack and Aram are stunned that the Royals are even workshopping a course of action that would put their prized possession somewhere other than shortstop for the next 15 years. Also, the AFL is a great platform that should be better highlighted, and steroids will dominate the baseball conversation again in due time.

89 | The World Series Mailbag
Peter, Jack, and Aram answer questions left on the Just Baseball Instagram and Twitter!
1. With Morton being out for the rest of the Postseason do the Braves still have the pitching edge over the Astros? - bignate2144 on Instagram
2. Hypothetical Question: Would you rather lose Morton for the series and win Game 1, or would you rather lose Game 1 and have Morton available for Games 4 & 7? Interested to see how much stock you put in a Game 1 win vs Morton’s value for this team in this series - Bradley Hindsman on Twitter
3. Umps have been under fire a lot more this year for a lot of bad calls. But the hot topic in the playoffs was a lot of shaky calls went to the Dodgers and not to the Braves or Giants. Do you think it was “on purpose” or coincidence? - Lildj228 on Twitter
4. Does the MLB season start on time this season with the MLB and MLBPA being so far apart? - itsdanielanderson on Instagram
5. With Bullpens being a huge focus this playoff, how did the Nationals manage to win the WS with no bullpen and why can’t teams replicate that? - Kazim Hall on Twitter
6. What’s the single-most rewatchable World Series or playoff game? - Javy
7. What do the braves do with the outfield after this season? They have Acuna, Duval, Joc, Soler, Rosario, Heredia, and Ozuna with his issues if he ever comes back. - nathan.gamer.13 on Instagram
8. Which stadium would you most rather watch a game 7 at? - aiden.penner on Instagram
