The Twins sold off at the deadline… to clear the way for a sale… that might not even happen now? Yeah, we’re confused too. Robert Murray and Adam Weinrib try to make sense of one of the strangest post-deadline twists in recent memory.

Meanwhile, the Guardians have clawed their way from 15.5 games back in July to just four back in the AL Central — with a negative run differential and after trading Shane Bieber. How are they doing it, and what’s the buzz around the league?

The guys also dive into the Astros’ bullpen dilemma after Josh Hader’s injury, the possibility of more contract extensions following Roman Anthony’s deal, and whether the Eugenio Suárez trade could haunt Seattle. Plus: waiver wire watch as August rolls on.
