Ep. 62 — Alex and Bobby open with the shocking revelation that Bryce Harper cut his hair (does he listen to the pod? It’s possible!). Then they break down the Mets-Mariners trade that is sending Robinson Canó back to New York, and take a look at the new plans for an A’s stadium in Oakland. Then they try to understand the motivations behind MLB donating to a racist Senate campaign and what it says about them as a business. Finally, they bid farewell to Adrián Beltré, whose long and storied career will surely land him in the GIF Hall of Fame — and the real one, too.
