Hour 3 of The Chris Russell Show featured a wide-ranging sports discussion, beginning with ESPN's list of the top 100 players to watch ahead of the MLB trade deadline. The conversation highlighted potential trade candidates across baseball, including Nationals pitcher Foster Griffin, who has emerged as a possible target for contending teams seeking pitching depth. The show then shifted to the Washington Commanders, where the hosts examined players who have yet to meet expectations and discussed who needs to step up as training camp approaches and roster battles begin.
