Could the Boston Red Sox land Washington Nationals pitcher Mackenzie Gore in a trade that benefits both franchises? This crossover episode explores a potential deal that could reshape Boston's rotation.

Ryan Clary and Gabby (Hurlbut) Maljanian break down Gore's elite strikeout ability and concerning second-half struggles, examining whether he's the reliable number two starter the Red Sox desperately need behind Garrett Crochet. The discussion centers on Kristian Campbell as the trade centerpiece, along with prospects like Payton Tolle and Connelly Early. Key topics include Gore's untapped potential with better defensive support, the Red Sox's improved pitching development system, and how a potential Tarik Skubal trade could impact the market.

The hosts analyze specific trade packages, debate prospect valuations, and assess whether Gore's inconsistency makes him too risky for a team trying to capitalize on their 2025 playoff appearance.

Tune in for expert analysis on this blockbuster trade scenario and what it means for both franchises' futures.
