2020 All-Stars (s5e09) - Off the rails
06/05/17 • -1 min
Off-topic is the name of the game this week. We get a little political, although don’t worry, it’s still our wacky takes on things. The environment, gender equality, basketball... there just isn’t a lot going on in baseball, so we stray. Hey, what can you do?
We start off with our favorite subject, the Dodgers. The outfield started off hot and now looks a bit like a dumpster fire. Todd suggests that Ryan Braun could make his way to the City of Angels. Matt Adams has had two good games, so we visit the short sample size theater. Speaking of the short sample size theater...
David Price had a good second game. Todd is ready to crown him. I’m actually ready to sell. We throw out a bunch of names but can’t really put a good value on Price.

2020 All-Stars (s5e08) - Go Fish
Trout. Thumb. Us. Tears.
That’s pretty much the first 10 minutes of the podcast. We discuss waiver wire guys that are out there, but none of these guys are Trout. Not even close. So yea, probably best to just replace Trout with tears. The big question is: Is Mike Trout gettable now? If someone is in a win now mode, Todd thinks that Trout is gettable.
We discuss pitchers next. David Price is back and we give our thoughts on him. Todd seems more optimistic than I am. Todd ambushes me with some recent call ups.

2020 All-Stars (s5e10) - Fresh Fish
We chat about the Astros lastest call up. Derek Fisher has had a monster season in the minors this year, but is this sustainable? Is he a legit 25/25 guy? Todd worries that the steals won’t translate to the bigs, but I’m more optimistic. We compare Fisher with our favorite rookie, Cody Bellinger. Which leads to the AGon injury. We are very worried about his prospects for the rest of the season, but that is good for the Dodgers prospects.
