Kyle Schwarber Asked About Joining Hometown Team in FA
When asked about joining his hometown Cincinnati youth in free agency by Scott Lauber of the Inquirer, Kyle Schwarber candidly said, “Being able to play for your childhood team is something that I think it’d be awesome.”
Awesome, you might add Lauber decided to ask, “Being a baseball fan and growing up and watching Cincinnati baseball for your whole youth, that’s how fall in love with baseball, I would draw your attention, right?”
The Reds are in the thick of a Wild Card race with first year manager Terry Francona leading a 58-54 record. Cincinnati has pitching prospects Chase Burns and Rhett Lowder called up and you could argue the best home run leader of his generation compared to Babe Ruth would make a swing for the fences in Great American Ball Park.
Citizens Bank Park might become more dwindling as days countdown. We will never know an answer unless the Philadelphia Phillies, play ball to the drum of the history of Pete Rose, Mike Schmidt, Bryce Harper, and Kyle Schwarber.

Tommy Edman Listed as Day-to-Day
So much for knowing him as the 2024 MLB World Baseball MVP, Tommy Edman is listed as day-to-day as he battles an ankle sprain rounding first in a hot humid game against Tampa or St. Petersburg.
There is a lot about the future of the Tampa Bay Rays but their competition is steep. Los Angeles bench ranks sixth as of August 4, 2025 compared to 4th, 2024.

What We Learned From The 2025 MLB Trade Deadline
Yesterday, we saw a collassal of trades and, in fact, according to Jomboy Media this was the most entertaining one.
It all began first with Michael Soroka who will be joining Willie Castro in Chicago to compete for a pennant. Both stand servicably well considering they join a winning contender.
In the meantime, Carlos Correa rejoined the Astros after they considered pitching. Correa will play third as Jeremy Pena is the best defensive shortstop without question by looking at his career-high Field percentage.
The one trade that stook out was not Spencer Jones or Paul Skenes. It was Mason Miller. AJ Preller proved to work the phones again but by how much leeway?
The Los Angeles Dodgers receive more ownership suppport than San Diego as Miller would go appreciated to move past Juan Soto and stir things in the Padres competitive bullpen with Jason Adam and Adrian Morejon.
We cannot go without forgetting the Phillies vs. Mets rivalry. The two butted heads as each bought a pitcher and a rental outfielder. Bader can play left and centerfield against his former team while Mullins touches the red apple.
In all seriousness, they were two gaps to fill at closer for both teams going head-to-head in the NL East. Phillies fans will get ready for Jhoan Duran MLB bullpen entrance and wait and see on Ryan Helsley.
Furthermore, it was tight for some but fans got through another deadline and will be back for more MLB coverage or next year of the 2026 MLB Trade Deadline.
