Deadline Approaches of Recent World Series Teams & The 2024 Hall of Fame Class
Description
Britt and DVR look back the approach of a few recent teams that made it to the World Series and discuss the value of making smaller moves that still make an impact without being a splashy mid-season blockbuster. Can the 2021 Trade Deadline plan of the Braves be replicated as a template, or was it a perfect storm?
