Eno, DVR, and Jed discuss Tuesday's trade between the Angels and Orioles, which sent Grayson Rodriguez to Anaheim for Taylor Ward. Plus, they discuss several accepted Qualifying Offers -- including Brandon Woodruff, Trent Grisham and Gleyer Torres (Shota Imanaga accepted one too, he'll be covered on the next episode) -- a few ideas for how the Pirates can make a splash this winter, and a few potential bargain bats available in free agency.
