Welcome to GM Territory! Former Big League executive and FT Resident GM Jim Bowden hosts with his son Trey.

This week, the duo debates whether the Detroit Tigers should SHOP Tarik Skubal as soon as he returns healthy — and why waiting until the trade deadline could actually hurt Detroit’s leverage. Jim gives the front office perspective on how contenders value frontline pitching, what a potential return package could look like, and why timing matters more than people think.

The Bowdens also dive into two of baseball’s biggest surprises: the Tampa Bay Rays and Cleveland Guardians. Are these teams actually this good? Can they sustain their success over 162 games? The guys break down the numbers behind both clubs, including Tampa Bay’s depth-driven formula and Cleveland’s elite pitching, defense, and José Ramírez-led offense.
