CROSSOVER: Brendan Donovan HEADLINES Wild Three-Team MLB Trade with St. Louis, Seattle and Tampa!

Seattle Mariners land Brendan Donovan in a blockbuster three-team trade to supercharge their World Series push—are the American League’s elite on notice? Paul Francis Sullivan (Sully) breaks down the Mariners’ aggressive move, spotlighting Donovan’s Gold Glove versatility and how his arrival reshapes the infield alongside stars like Julio Rodríguez. Colby and JD Hafron debate the trade’s impact on both Seattle’s lineup depth and the St. Louis Cardinals’ rebuilding strategy, with exciting prospects like Jurrangelo Cijntje and JJ Wetherholt entering the conversation. The hosts also question if the Tampa Bay Rays will once again turn a lesser-known name, Ben Williamson, into an under-the-radar success story. Key segments explore the Mariners’ pitching edge in the AL West, lineup questions after recent trades, and the Cardinals’ renewed farm system. Is this the deal that finally propels the Mariners to the Fall Classic, or will St. Louis fans soon celebrate a new wave of top-tier talent?
