    LOCKOUT Coming Soon!?

    Welcome to GM Territory! Former Big League executive and FT Resident GM Jim Bowden hosts with his son Trey. This week, the Bowdens tackle one of the biggest issues facing Major League Baseball: the upcoming Collective Bargaining Agreement negotiations. With the current CBA set to expire after the 2026 season, Jim breaks down the key battlegrounds that could shape the next labor agreement, including the luxury tax system, revenue sharing, salary arbitration, player compensation, service time, and the growing divide between large-market and small-market clubs. The duo discusses what owners and players are likely to prioritize, where the biggest points of conflict could emerge, and whether baseball is headed toward labor peace or another work stoppage. Jim also provides unique insight from his time in front offices and previous labor negotiations, explaining how MLB executives prepare for these discussions behind the scenes. Subscribe to GM Territory! The Bowdens break down trades, drafts, scouting, analytics, player development, front office strategy, labor issues, and inside information from all 30 Major League Baseball organizations year-round.

    Skubal on the MOVE!?

    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.
