Our guest this week, MLB.com's manager of storytelling Michael Clair, has a new newsletter that highlights the international game wherever it's being played and is making sure we'll know where the next generation of great major league players is going to come from.
Plus, happy birthday to Paul Schaal and Jeff Pfeffer!
And farewell to Jimy Williams and John Pregenzer.
