Adam Weinrib and FanSided prospect expert Eric Cole break down the latest MLB prospect movement, starting with the Cubs–Marlins trade that sent Owen Caissie to Miami and what his ceiling looks like in a new organization. They discuss the ripple effects of Alex Bregman signing with the Cubs, what it means for Chicago’s infield depth and young players, and whether Nico Hoerner or Matt Shaw could eventually be squeezed out. The conversation then shifts to Yankees trade rumors surrounding Freddy Peralta, what Milwaukee might actually want in return, and how prospects like Will Warren, Luis Gil, and Brendan Jones fit into potential deals. The show wraps with a look at MLB Pipeline’s “biggest prospect huggers” poll and why the Guardians earned that reputation.
