Episode 20 | Grading The Offseason & Last Minute Transactions

This week on The Diamond Duo Podcast, Tom and Tony take one final look at the MLB offseason and the many moves that have come with it! They go over every major transaction with special focus given to some of the larger deals such as the signings of Freddie Freeman and Carlos Correa. Once each move is analyzed, the two proceed to grade the offseason of some of the most noteworthy teams who actively participated (I'm looking at you, Cleveland). These teams include some of the slam dunk winners like the Blue Jays, Dodgers, and Braves, in addition to some of the biggest disappointments like the Yankees, Reds, and A's. Before all this, however, the two cover some of the biggest headlines going around the league! From the retiring of Andrew Miller to the reunion of Albert Pujols in St. Louis, no stone is left unturned. What we really don't want you to miss (as if we'd want you to miss any of this) is the beginning of this episode in which Tom and Tony celebrate 500 listens in less than 20 episodes. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you all for tuning in and listening to us rant about baseball; it means more than you know! Give yourself a pat on the back as you tune into the 20th episode of The Diamond Duo Podcast!
