It's time to get nerdy! On today's episode, Javier is joined by a longtime guest of the pod and prospect guru: Aram Leighton! The two take some time to go over the Padres system that's been decimated by trades, but quietly showing signs of life! They discuss players like Esteury Ruiz, Jackson Merril, James Wood, Robert Gasser (and whether or not he passes the eye test), friend of the pod Kevin Kopps, and some other underrated guys to keep an eye on! Then, after addressing the prospect depth they have to potentially make moves, they Aram's mock trade proposal for a quality outfielder to help the Padres right now. It's nerd-out time! Go Padres.
