April 10, 2020 The Peter Moylan Story
DOB, EOF and the amazing Aussie, Peter Moylan, take a trip down memory lane as Moylan regales us with the tale of his journey from aspiring baseball player in Australia with a stutter, to a rollerblading Rookie Baller who had his signing bonus stolen by a guy selling a car sound system at a night club, to a pharmaceutical salesman and, ultimately, fulfilling his dream of playing in the Majors.

April 07, 2020 Braves Pitcher Luke Jackson Joins 755!
DOB & EOF welcome Atlanta's 'Friendly Neighborhood Slider-Man', Luke Jackson, to the pod! After the Braves pitcher updates the guys on his life during the quarantine (1:00), he responds to MLB's musings of starting the season and playing in Arizona (6:30). What challenges does Jackson foresee, and is this possibility tenable? The righty reliever reveals the challenges associated with the shutdown after a successful, though truncated, spring where he maintained good health (17:10). The trio deliberate the odds of a season actually taking place (25:50), and discuss the single stat on Jackson's wrap sheet that spurred criticism from fans and experts: blown saves (37:30). Plus, the retired reliever, Eric, and Jackson gab about pitching last season, pitching development and other intricacies (49:30) before Jackson relives being DFA'd/released by Atlanta five times within a year (1:08:45).

March 24, 2020 Are the Braves well positioned for baseball's return?
There's no baseball, but the show must go on for DOB and EOF. The guys talk about how the stoppage is effecting Minor Leaguers and fringe roster players, then they look back on other shortened seasons in baseball history and compare to the current situation. Later, David and Eric explain why when baseball does return, the Braves may be in a great spot to capitalize.
