We talk about the Indians loss. They are now 61-60 all time on opening day. The loss brings up feelings from last year, but understand this game was kind of a fluke. It was a very weird outcome for the winning run. We look at the good and the bad in this one. We talk about the news of the draft being at least 20 rounds and why I think it will end up at 30. We end with the final bit of my talk with Nash Walker where we predict how the American League will shake out in terms of Division Winners and the Wild Cards.

I sit down virtually with Nash Walker of Locked on Twins. We get to talk baseball, and specifically focus on the AL Central. We talk Indians and Twins, we also talk about the central in general. This is your chance to hear what another expert on our network thinks about the Indians and their chances. We talk Eddie Rosario, Francisco Lindor, and so much more. Find out why I think the Twins are such a smart and well run organization. Find out what Nash thinks of the Indians chances, and where do we both think they end up when it comes to the playoff hunt for this year. This organizations are reverse mirrors of each other one that is very hitter focused and the other very pitcher focused the question is can either of them overcome the possibly more well rounded White Sox? Listen and find out what we think.

- Eddie Rosario lineup discussion, and overall discussion of how much improvement he presents for the Indians against what they had last year

- Nash tells us about the Eddie Rosario experience both the good and the bad

- We talk centerfield, and what has happened to Oscar Mercado since 2019

- Talk about interesting roster decisions by the Twins and Indians, We talk Jake Bauers and Brent Rooker

- Then we talk about how the Twins have been more willing to try their young hitters than the Indians have been 

- Depth discussion how the Twins have it and the Indians do not

- Then we talk about what it was like to make a run, and how that run to the World Series 2016 has informed a lot of Indians decisions

- Then a Deep discussion on how the Twins have lost 18 playoff games in a row, the humor that the Indians pitching failed which was their strength and for the Twins their bats failed last year their strength

Also sorry about the hum that kicks in during the inserts I do during the show, they are never during the interview themselves if it is something that annoys you when it kicks on.

I sit done and over great distance talk with Justin Lada of Indians Baseball Insider. We talk about the opening day roster, and how we think things might playout over the year. We discuss issues we had with roster construction, how we think the rotation, pen, first base, and outfield situations might play out. We go deep on a myriad of topics as it relates to the Indians and baseball in general.

We talk about all the final roster moves. We look at outfield and first base in particular and try and figure out why the Indians made the decisions they made even if you or I don't agree with them. We look into the Plutko trade, and explain why it happened along with taking a look at Plutko the pitcher. We then conclude our chat with Pat Ellington from last week.

I sit down and talk with Pat Ellington an up and coming writer in the Cleveland and overall baseball scene. You might have read him on Baseball Prospectus and that is one of the many places his name will be appearing this spring and summer. This might be your first chance to hear him before his star takes off. It is a fun talk as Pat and I talked for 20 minutes before and an hour afterwards. This will be a multi-parter where we talk about recent trades, spring training battles, players we like, and so much more so tune in for what is sure to be a good couple of episodes.

After talking about the Rule 5 crunch over the last few weeks, we dig deep today. We are all waiting on roster decisions, so we look at the major roster decisions coming down the line. There are 11 players who look like they are going to need to be added. With at least eight of them seeming like locks already. This means the Indians have to make a trade using these players before the end of the season or risk losing players for nothing. We point out one particular player with Ohio ties that might make sense for the Indians to consider trading for before the year is done.
