Barstool Sports presents the Starting 9 podcast featuring Jared Carrabis and Dallas Braden - the baseball podcast everyone wants but no one else will give you. This episode features an interview with former MLB player and current analyst for SportsNet LA, Jerry Hairston Jr, who touches on Clayton Kershaw, Kenley Jansen's early struggles, Bryce Harper, Shohei Ohtani and more. In addition to recapping Braden's experience as part of Oakland's 50th anniversary team, Dallas and Jared give their initial reactions to Ohtani, their reaction to Giancarlo Stanton being booed at his Yankee Stadium debut and the Cardinals signing of Greg Holland. The group also goes through each division and gives one player, trend or development that stands out to them after the first week of MLB action. And, of course, questions from the #groundscrew!
