Rockies Trade for Jake McCarthy | 100

We break down the Rockies trading for Jake McCarthy from Arizona, what his speed, left-handed bat, and team control through 2028 could mean for the outfield, and how this move might create pressure and competition across the roster. Then we react to the Rockies signing Willi Castro to a two-year deal, why his versatility and switch-hitting fit what the new front office is building, and whether he’s an upgrade over Thairo Estrada. Plus, we get hit with breaking MLB news live during the show, including Kyle Tucker to the Dodgers, and we talk about Nolan Arenado returning to the NL West with Arizona—and whether that really moves the needle in the division. To close out the episode, we feature a full conversation from our guy Chris (Hoops and Homers / 5280 Media) with new Rockie Troy Johnston, covering his approach, mindset, MLB debut, and what it means to join Colorado.
