2020 All-Stars

The real all-star team has been announced and we discuss the surprises. Where there is Smoak, there is fire! We discuss Yonder Alonso vs Justin Smoak and who we think is more for real / more surprising. We also discuss the return of Freddie Freeman once again. In the NL, we discuss the middle infielders that were surprises. Later on in the pod, we continue with post-hype guys like Kevin Gausman.

We then meander around the subject of a bunch of speed guys. Billy Hamilton, Elvis Andrus, Brent Gardner, Dee Gordon, Trea Turner.

The kids are coming up. We discuss the two big outfielders that got the call, Nick Williams and Clint Frazier.

Lastly, Closerpocalyse. Same ole, same ole.

2020 All-Stars (s5e12) - Dodger lefty down for the count

We talk about the Julio Urias injury. He’s got a shoulder injury and he done. Pretty much a drop everywhere and we discuss possible replacements. Rick Porcello vs Alex Cobb, Trevor Bauer vs Mike Montgomery, Andrew Moore, Dutch Oven... does that sound exciting? Hey, it’s bleak out there.

On the offensive side, we chat Judge vs Bellinger. We are squarely in the Bellinger but Todd throws out the first rounder talk. Where does Bellinger rank among the league’s elite first basemen? I’m not ready to crown him, but Todd’s take is coming in hot. On the Judge side, we both agree on selling the hype. Are any of these guys as good as Matt Adams? ha, jk.

We end the pod with Closerpocalypse. Alright, enjoy!
