    I’m trying to mow the lawn or driving home with the AC blasting so I don’t die of heat stroke but can’t hear because you guys speak so softly! Awesome time listening when I can hear :)

    I would guess 90% of the comments here are about the embarrassingly horrible audio, why is this not fixed?

  • Terrible audio

    Bumper music and ads play at max volume, when the show starts the audio is so quiet it can’t be heard. This is an MLB production?? I’ve heard better shows coming from some kid’s basement.

Grading Our Predictions (Guest: Tate Southisene)

Grading Our Predictions (Guest: Tate Southisene)
Q: How's the wrist?

Fall League in full swing (Guest: Dax Kilby)
Q: What would have been your early takeaways from being here in the Fall League?
Kilby notes the overall high level of competition, with both pitchers and hitters performing at a very high level, making AFL a strong proving ground and an energizing environment for development.
Rookie Roundup (Guest: Theo Gillen)
Q: How did you handle the transition to outfield and what adjustments helped you become a leader on the field?
Theo discussed embracing the move to the outfield, focusing on throwing progression, calling pitches, leadership communication, and mastering positioning to save runs and improve defense.
Rookie Roundup (Guest: Theo Gillen)
Q: Theo, the one thing I noticed about your performance, what did you do to tap into the power and to increase your exit velocities? Was that a conscious effort?
Theo Gillen explained that improving power came from a deliberate offseason foundation, focusing on a wider, simpler base, being earlier to contact, and carrying that through with consistent mechanics to improve timing and resulting power output.
