This Week in Sportsball: 2022 MLB Trade Deadline Edition 

Beautiful tribute to Vin at the end of the video. He inspired so many lives, including mine.

May Vin Scully rest in peace. He was a legend in baseball. Great tribute, UT, and a great video.

As a Nats fan I can confirm that I am completely and utterly dead inside. But, I'm really happy for Soto as he deserved better and I'm also happy that the O's are turning things around for the DMV.

I’m glad that padre fans have something to look forward to. I just don’t know if they have the depth required like a lot of teams to make a big postseason run

As a Dodgers fan losing Vin was a gut punch. Not only for Dodger fans but for the entire league. He was our father/grandfather for most of us that loved to tell tales of these great baseball legends and heroes and made them human. And that's what made Vin so great, giving us the human connection thru baseball no matter what team you rooted for. Rest in peace in Blue Heaven Mr. Scully.

Once again, excellent work, sir. The tribute to Vin Scully was perfect.

Absolutely beautiful tribute to Vin Scully. Literally needs no words. Tree, you're a man of true class. Vin Scully will be missed in the world of baseball! RIP to a legend 🙏

You know the Tigers rebuild is over because Chris “I thank God everyday for nepotism” Ilitch said it is. Ignore the injuries, the failed attempts at what can only be loosely claimed to be offense, and the wasting of a rather good bullpen, I didn’t draft another pitcher early and didn’t get completely ripped off at the deadline, this time. And hey, how about those other Detroit teams with their front offices? Surely success can be had via osmosis - Al Alvila, probably Fire Alvila

The Trade Deadline, the time where we award the Colorado Rockies for doing absolutely nothing longer than anyone else!

The thing with the Nats is that they won a championship in recent years, it’s more than could be said about my favourite team the Blue Jays, in my opinion championships don’t grow in trees, and just being able to win one in a window is enough to not be seen as failures. Also RIP Vin Scully.

Tree, you should know that Didi wasn’t actually hated here. It’s weird considering how awful his stats were, but the fans actually liked him a lot and thanked him for his time when he was cut. Herrera and Familia on the other hand were absolutely despised.

I actually like the moves St. Louis made this deadline. The pitching should be a lot more stable now, which takes pressure off of Goldy and Arenado to carry the offense. Bader will be missed, and the outfield defense is slightly weaker now, but Carlson has looked pretty solid in CF so far. No Cardinals fans, we werent getting Soto, so you can stop seething.

As a lifelong Dodger fan, I want to say RIP to Vin. Your tribute to him was awesome, Tree. Thanks for all the memories, Vin.

As a Mets fan, I was perfectly fine with our deadline, we made our big splashes in the offseason like you said, and we still added bench and platoon upgrades in Naquin, Vogelbach and Ruf and added Givens to help fortify the bullpen, my only complaint is that they didn’t trade for a lefty reliever, but outside of that, It was a fine deadline. Also, RIP Vin Scully. 🙏

All i can say is that man that Astros Yankees matchup in the postseason is gonna be a spectacle to watch i am so pumped for it

I hear the Reds new cereal, “Oops, all shortstops!” is delicious btw

Tbf to the Red Sox, the main problem in July was everyone on the pitching staff getting injured. Now half of them are either back (Eovaldi, Whitlock, Barnes, Hill) or will be in the next few weeks (Sale, Wacha, Bello, Paxton) Bloom showed a clear head by refusing to panic and either sell or splurge and fixed up the obvious line up hole by getting Eric Hosmer for free

Excellent video as always. Love the support for my guy Mancini. And great tribute to Vin.

I have literally never heard the end of that iconic broadcast call and Im now angry that sports channels believed "on a night of the improbable, the impossible has happened." is a good place to cutoff when he goes on to talk about Tinkerbell taking a backset to Gibson ROFL

That line about the Reds trading all of their players once they hit the second year of arbitration stabbed me right in my soul… Cruel never ending pain

12:02 Hearing that as an M's fan gives me a mix of anxiety and hope. On the one hand, I'm all too familiar with how Seattle fizzles out when the baseball season winds down in years past. On the other hand, J-Rod has been a shining star on our squad and their 14-game win streak before the intermission gives me an impression that the M's want to be taken seriously. We have a wild card spot for now but I know that teams like Baltimore and Cleveland are breathing down their necks.

I would also like to send my condolences to Arizona's GM Mike Hazen. His wife died from cancer. My thoughts are with him and his family.

13:58 Ballard smiles on this trade. Lannie McDonald to "The Colorado Rockies" vibes

Thank you for understanding the O’s situation. It really hurt to see but the time for us isn’t here yet especially when we have more reinforcements coming from the farm. I value your opinion a lot more than I do anyone on ESPN

2:21- what does Dave Roberts have to do with the Nationals, tree?

I never thought I'd hear the "Lotus 2 RECS" soundtrack being used in a video, but here we are @5:13 that's awesome!!!

So what we learn is that the Padres will do anything and all to get their hands on a championship even if it means sacrificing several lives to the devil to make that possible, they don't care to them those bodies are just for the greater good.

5:37 This bit about playing mlb the show for the first time it's accurate and it's hilarious 🤣

It's like the Padres were the Little Engine that could and then chugged 15 Red Bulls and then became the Hyped Upped over inconsistent that whenever they make a lot of good moves fail at the end Big Engine that could

As a Padres Fan, I’m still in shock by the moves Preller made along with getting rid of Hosmer and Lamet’s contract off the books. On the other hand, it is still San Diego and we are a cursed city. So if there’s a collapse of any kind I shouldn’t be surprised

I see the Reds saw happiness and said no fun for you

As a Mariners fan, I think we gave up too much prospects for one Luis Castillo. I did think it was time to give some up (as being a “Prospect Hugger” is controversial in Mariners Circles), but we could’ve gotten a good bat from the Reds and we didn’t get that. Thought I am glad we got Castillo. Also what a beautiful call by Vin Scully! May he rest in God’s graceful peace!

Video starts at 1:20

As a Dodgers fan thank you for the beautiful tribute to Vin Scully 💙💙💙

I think the only reason STL traded Bader was because they weren't expecting his plantar faciatis to really improve much. That trade still really hurts though, not just because of his ability in the outfield and on the base paths, but he was also a fan favorite and brought a ton of energy to the team. Carlson is showing strong gold glove potential too, but he's still got a ways to go to reach Bader's level.

Thank you for perfectly summing up the feeling of Marlins fans on the Trade Deadline. Complete and utter apathy. They traded for a guy with a declining prospect stock, and failed to sell high on Pablo Lopez and Garrett Cooper. Garrett Cooper's trade value isn't going to get any higher than it is now, and they wasted that opportunity. As for Pablo Lopez, this was the best time to get value out of him. They weren't going to compete next year with this lineup, and with Max Meyer going under the knife. Just like they always do in with runners in scoring position all season long, they choked at the deadline. Why is it so painful to be a Marlins fan?

As a guardians fan I was upset at first for the lack of movement at the deadline. After hearing the front office speak on it, it makes more sense. This is a young team that isn’t supposed to be contending, so trading away the farm to make a push now doesn’t make sense. Additionally, the team is playing really really well together and they themselves didn’t want to break up that chemistry. Plesac and Rosario held value at the deadline but to trade away Rosario for a catcher adds no value to their lineup at this moment and risks blowing up what they’ve built to this point. And what they’ve built is special. At the time of the deadline, this young team of unproven players is 5th best in the entire league against winning teams and continues to get better and prove more people wrong week by week.

I scratch my head seeing Carlos Rodon and Joc Pederson still being a part of the Giants. I guess they think they can make a run, but with the way they have played in the second half, it’s not looking good. When do the Niners season start?

Why do i feel like The Royals will be in a never ending rebuild

Dude, the fact that people honesty think $440M isn't enough to pay a guy to hit a ball with a stick is just further proof that this country's priorities are a joke.

"They must beat LA. If not it will be a failure. No excuses this year boys. None." Injuries: Im gonna probably start what's called. A pro gamer move 😈

Seeing Soto in SD is a match made in Heaven

The Padres going to be a dangerous team in the playoffs. They got Soto now.

You know there's three truths in life death, taxes and The Rockies not doing anything at the trade deadline

Rest in peace, Vin. As a Marlins fan it broke my heart when you retired, and now my heart is breaking again

They should've never been in this situation but the nats actually got great value for Soto. If they had to trade him, this was about the best they could've done

Getting ready for Lolmets 2022: Playoff edition.

More UT in my life is always a great thing

The Phillies remind me of the ‘93 team, terribly put together, never routine, never perfect and always flawed, but won’t. stop. winning.

Actually not an awful trade deadline by the Cardinals? Who’d have guessed? We got the pitchers we needed and we didn’t sell the farm to do it

Zack Pop to Toronto is great because he can now save money by moving back in with his parent’s house in Brampton. Also, a great tribute to the great Vin Scully.

This was one of the best trade in a while for mlb.

I think Tree forgot that Bader has missed a couple months with plantar fasciitis and has no timeline on his return. High-risk high-reward move for both sides while the Cards save money on the deal

9:52 That bonk sound effect kills me every time 💀💀

I’m still confused why the Rangers didn’t move any of their players besides Matt Bush.

5:00 I think you'll be making another diss track against the Padres... It appears to be happening again, lmao

9:52 That sound effect got me good lol

Rest In Peace to Vin Scully.

Honestly the pressure on the Wahdres is just delicious after the complete shellacking they got by the Dodgers over the weekend :3 20-4 sweep and their new pickups contributed fuckall while desperately clinging to a 1 game lead on WC3.

RIP Vin 🐐🐐

I love how much Tree uses songs from the Halo soundtracks in his videos lol

In a vacuum the Giants deadline was bad. But as a fan, it’s mind boggling and infuriating. Mixing around the edge of the lineup making team chemistry nearly impossible, as well as selling off injury projects and fan favorite Darin Ruf. They didn’t buy, didn’t sell, didn’t even do nothing, which could be understandable because the current core would sell tickets. But instead they’ve managed to alienate everyone, by not committing to anything. It’s kinda like Farhan knows what the issues are but can’t or won’t address it.

Thank you tree for the vin tribute. I’m a dodger fan grew up in LA when Kobe was running the lakers and vin was the voice in the dodgers. I’m only 26 but he was the dodgers for me growing up. Thank you

Chefs kiss with the Gibson HR, well done sir.

God, I miss Vogelbach. I'm kinda sad the Mariners didn't at least TRY to get him back.

“I like their odds” TREE PLEASE DONT CURSE SEATTLE

The Mortal Kombat track playing during Tampa is fitting... That team is bloody AF.

The Mike trout back thing is damn sad, I don't watch much of him cause I really only watch the cubs, unfortunately, but it really sucks to see such a good player have issues like that.

It's almost Fall, that means Tree will have numerous amounts of Sports Ball content. things are coming into balance once again

Lets goo baseball vid

Those damn Astros. I get that they want to prove to the world that they can win legitimately but as a fan of a division rival, I hope The Succubus keeps them cursed. Not to mention Dusty Baker-led teams don't win World Series.

That score at 6:09 is both the most painful and the most hilarious thing ever to read 😂 🤣 ☠️💀

Tree, do me a favor - Buy an Eric Hosmer Padres Jersey The King of Chaos deserves nothing less

Lmao great timing UT. If last night's game between SD and LA was any indication then the padres are in HUGE TROUBLE. Dodgers smacked em in the mouth and showed the Padres who's still top dog in the NL West. Juan Soto won't save them 😂😂

trout has a chronic back condition from carrying the Angels for 10 years by himself. it was expected to be honest.

Taylor Rodgers blowing chunks: My dog named chunks: 🤤

As an A's fan, I'm thankful to be not be old enough to see that Gibson HR ... Many are still annoyed over that today

To be fair, Collin Holderman is a really nice add for Pittsburgh. For a Vogey rental, that's a great trade for both teams.

Rest in peace Vin. You join a star studded broadcast team to do heavens play by play.

If it were me, of course I would have posted another iconic call...Game 6. What makes it great is that for 3 minutes and 24 seconds after "here comes Knight and the Mets win it" Scully didn't say a word...just letting the Shea bedlam and Sox misery tell the story. Then "if one picture is worth a thousand words, you have seen about a million words". Perfection.

As a Nats fan I can feel happiness in knowing that Soto and Bell are off to a win now team, and we aren't wasting them like the Angels.

Looking back at Vin Scully, this is truly the end of dodgers past. He’s the last thing lasting of when the dodgers were still in Brooklyn, and he moved with the team to LA. He’s made iconic calls, and has seen many legends of the game over the decades. Calling games till he was 86 years of age, that’s something special to think he can still get up to go to work into his 80’s. May he now have the second best view of dodgers games, second only to the view he had when he would call dodger games.

Another year as a Guardians fan, another disappointing deadline in which the Dolans spend absolutely nothing on the team

It must have been amazing for those who lived to see that world series. I was born that year and just 5 months old at the time. At least you can always look back at these highlights though but wow must have been crazy to see it live for the first time

Love the Banjo Kazooie pause music

Im a Nationals fan. Help us. SOS. We are sinking like the Titanic.

I like the Lanny McDonald reference that you used on Whit Merrifield. The funny part about this is, Toronto was involved in both moves.

This MLB trade deadline was actually pretty interesting

Tree needs to put the links of his songs that he uses in the description, i swear he be playing bangers

The only time the Cubs do anything at the trade deadline or extending players or etc is when I play as the GM on MLB The Show.

That South Park music at the Angels tho! ❤

LETS GO O'S!

“Hader will do better in San Diego.” This isn’t aging well

7:12 “They won’t be Gray, they’ll be golden” Montas’s first start: “Are you sure about that?”

"Vin Scully has turned in his broadcast headset for a halo" Nailed it tree, You nailed it...

The Rockies made the same amount of moves at the deadline as me! We are so useless!

As a Twins intern, I'm glad we upgraded our bullpen, it was so shaky and I raged every time I see someone like Emilio Pagan and Thielbar and Duffey blowing leads

I love and miss Voggy too man he was a great Brewer.

I hear Freedom Fighter's music, UTree has excellent taste as always in VG music.

Amidst all the Vin Scully tributes, I'm sure Dennis Eckersley and Bill Buckner are happy to hear their worst moments narrated again...and again.
