Fresh off an exhilarating weekend at Dave & Buster's, the boys are joined by friend of the pod Noah Hiles. They discuss the recent signing of lefty reliever Caleb Ferguson, who might do more than pitch out of the pen?

We also discuss the looming arbitration hearings of Johan Oviedo and Dennis Santana, who failed to come to an agreement with the organization prior to the arbitration deadline this past week.

Lastly, we give our thoughts on the elephant in the room - Right Field. Who will be the Opening Day starter in the corner? Tune in to find out!

Also tune in for some bold takes, as we quickly recap Noah's latest article in the Pittsburgh Post Gazette. Link below!
