The cost of pitching in MLB this winter has been expensive. The Cleveland Guardians needed to add it. How have the Guardians navigated adding pitching in this market? Have their moves of paying a recovering Shane Bieber, and trading for Luis L. Ortiz and Slade Secconi looked smarter or better vs. what players like Matthew Boyd, Alex Cobb and Charlie Morton have cost this winter?

We also discuss Jose Ramirez's 2024 season and if he can keep chasing 40/40 and how much more help does he need to improve in the postseason, or if he can improve on his postseason numbers.

And we each talk about one trade idea at the end of the episode.
