  • Great podcast

    I enjoy listening to these two guys on YouTube, they do interact with their viewers and take note of points, they do have a soft spot for Oneil Cruz looking at strike 3 down the middle and his league leading 20 errors, but other than that, they’re great dudes.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

448 | From Swept to Sweep
Q: What went wrong in the Cardinals series and how did it affect the team's momentum?
The pitching sessions were off, the bullpen wasn't able to close, and the Cardinals were hot, which led to the Pirates slipping in the series. The hosts discuss the need to reset and rebound with a quick turnaround.
410 | Wishful Thinking Pt 2
Q: Did you have the Yankees moving on or the Blue Jays?
I think once it was the Yankees and Blue Jays, I had Blue Jays, but I think I was rooting for the Red Sox.
226 | Not So Wild Anymore
Q: Will Andrew McCutchen come back for one more year?
If he wants to play and believes he can, it seems likely Bob Nutting would ensure he's back; however, a limited role may be necessary.
226 | Not So Wild Anymore
Q: Do you think O'Neil Cruz will play shortstop next year?
I think they'll probably stick with him for another year, hoping he improves his defensive skills while maintaining his offensive contributions.
350 | Sleeping in Seattle
Q: Does Paul Skenes start in the All-Star game?
It's uncertain. He might be kept on a limited pitch count, depending on the management's strategy for his upcoming starts.
