BKP starts off this week with the first Hot Stove Report of 2024, as Jake breaks down the particulars of the trade between the Atlanta Braves and Boston Red Sox; Vaughn Grissom for Chris Sale. Soon after the trade with Atlanta, the Red sox sign RHP Lucas Giolito to a one year contract, with an option for 2025. What do the Braves get out of this deal? Will the Red Sox, with an all right-handed rotation, be aggressive in their pusuit of a southpaw among Blake Snell, Jordan Montgomery or Japanese import Shota Imenaga? The Reds continue to make moves to solidify their bullpen and rotation. Will the large markets begin to show agression in the market, now that so many of them lost out on the Sho and Yo Sweepstakes tour? All this and more, in week eight of the 2023 0ffseaon. Then we dig into the life and career, of baseball's first Jewish superstar, Hank Greenberg. He played in an era with the Great Depression and World War II, in the background. Amid the anti-semetic environment playing out on MLB ball fields around the country, and with Adolph Hitler, and his evil Nazi thugs rising to power in Europe. Hank displays the courage to take on prejudice in the game, and sacrifice four years of his amazing career, to fight Hitler's New World Order and his final solution. #HankGreenberg #HammerinHank #TheBigMoose #GreenwichVillage #NewYorkCity #Bronx #HenryFord #JackieRobinson #BabeRuth #LouGehrig #DetroitTigers #SandyKoufax #PittsburghPirates #EdgarGuest #AdolphHitler #TheGreatDepression
