Episode 189 -- In the last episode, "Chompin' at the Bit," we talked about hockey. In today's episode, "Chompin at the Mitt," the guys from Locked on Sharks ask Jason some baseball-related questions, including why the hot stove hasn't been turned on and "how Brett Lawrie is working out for us." Ah, Canadians.

In the first segment, Jason catches up with some of the news around the game, from around baseball, including the A's announcing their managers in the minor leagues heading into the 2021 season and Major League Baseball announcing that they'll be incorporating Negro League stats alongside MLB stats. Jason also goes over what's coming up on the show next week!
