The Ain’t No Fang Podcast: Trades we would like to see the D-backs make

Days away from the All-Star Game, the Arizona Diamondbacks have some important decisions to make ahead of the MLB trade deadline.

The first decision is whether or not to trade older veterans like David Peralta and Ian Kennedy. They may be valuable to other teams, but the prospect return may not be abundant.

The second decision involves prospect depth. The D-backs have a lot of starting pitchers and outfielders in the upper minor leagues. Would they consider flipping a few for a big leaguer with years of control?

Thirdly, is 2022 a lost season? Do the Diamondbacks plan on making moves to help them win now, or in the future?

Steve Zinsmeister and Cody Fincher of The Ain’t No Fang Podcast discuss the trade scenarios that they would like to see come to fruition.
