  • Angels $

    Love listening to Ken and the host telling their audience how the Angels should pay for someone’s health insurance. Another example of people telling other people what to do with money that is not their own. How about Ken and the host step up with some coin to support this individual, instead of telling others they should do it.

Q: When discussing a player's decision to participate in the World Baseball Classic, what are some of the positive things that are less discussed effects?

Pirates option Konnor Griffin, Cristopher Sánchez extension, Max Scherzer piano-playing rehab
Q: What is your favorite opening day memory?
Ken shares a vivid Orioles opener memory from 1989, detailing Roger Clemens' non-no-hitter performance, Cal Ripken's home run, Steve Finley's debut, and the dramatic arc that followed, framing opening day as memorable but not definitive of a season.
Pirates option Konnor Griffin, Cristopher Sánchez extension, Max Scherzer piano-playing rehab
Q: First one, which pitching matchup are you most intrigued by for opening day?
Ken highlights Paul Skeens vs. Freddie Peralta as a standout opening-day clash, noting its potential to showcase Skeens' Cy Young trajectory and the Mets' early-year optimism, while also warning not to overreact to a single game.
Viral ABS Challenges, Hot Rookies, Yankees & Blue Jays start strong
Q: Will teams eventually want three ABS challenges instead of two?
No; baseball wants to keep the game moving and preserve human elements; full ABS is not desired.
Viral ABS Challenges, Hot Rookies, Yankees & Blue Jays start strong
Q: Should Bo Bichette's issues concern Mets fans?
Bo Bichette is expected to hit; concerns are overstated if the Mets perspective is considered; long-term trend will matter more than opening-week results.
