The trade deadline has passed but plenty of questions remain. Ken and Tim try to explain why this deadline was so wild and then it's onto the mailbag...

-How long will Rockies fans have to wait for a contender after choosing not to be big sellers?

-Does the deadline favor big market teams?

-Why would anyone make a deal with Farhan Zaidi after he's won so many trades?

-Did the Giants get it right acquiring Kris Bryant?

-Now what for all the teams who aren't contending over the next two months?

-Was the acquisitions of Lester and Happ a waste for Cardinals?

-If the A's move to Las Vegas, will they start spending money?

All that and more! To be a part of next week's episode call the voicemail at 646-543-7072 or email [email protected]…
