How do you fix the Dodgers? Jim Bowden breaks down what Los Angeles needs to do moving forward and proposes a blockbuster trade idea that would send James Wood and CJ Abrams to the Dodgers. Would this be the move that gets LA back on top, and what would it take to make a deal like this happen?

Plus, the Phillies are bringing back Don Mattingly. Jim shares his thoughts on the decision, what it means for Philadelphia’s future, and whether Mattingly is the right fit to help lead the organization going forward.

Finally, the Seattle Mariners are searching for a new manager. Who makes the most sense to take over in Seattle? Jim breaks down the potential candidates and identifies the best fit for the job.

Three major storylines, one blockbuster trade idea, and plenty of baseball talk on GM Territory.

On today’s GM Territory, Jim Bowden and Trey Bowden break down one of the most memorable MLB debuts of the season as Joshua Baez makes history for the St. Louis Cardinals. Why did it take the Cardinals so long to call him up — and what can we expect from Baez moving forward?

Plus, the Yankees could be getting two huge pieces back soon with Aaron Judge and Cody Bellinger nearing their returns. What does a healthier Yankees lineup look like down the stretch, and how much does it change their outlook?

We also dive into:

⚾ CJ Abrams moving from shortstop to second base — why Washington is making the change and what it could mean for his future.

⚾ Colton Emerson’s injury situation — and the questions surrounding how truthful he was about what happened.

⚾ The Giants hosting the 2028 MLB All-Star Game — and the fascinating connection between the Midsummer Classic and the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.

Jim and Trey break down all of it on another packed episode of GM Territory, part of the Foul Territory Network.

Could Major League Baseball be headed toward another lockout?

On today’s GM Territory, Jim Bowden and Trey Bowden dive into the growing labor battle between MLB and the Players Association and why the blockbuster Tarik Skubal trade to the Los Angeles Dodgers could have major implications well beyond the 2026 season.

Has the Dodgers’ continued ability to stockpile superstar talent strengthened the owners’ argument for major economic changes? Could a salary cap become the biggest battle of the next CBA negotiations? And just how realistic is the possibility that baseball faces a work stoppage in 2027?

We also break down the devastating Hunter Greene injury. We discuss whether his previous elbow issues played a role in how the Reds handled him this season, what his recovery timeline could look like, and how potentially losing Greene for a significant portion of 2027 changes Cincinnati’s plans moving forward.
