  • Spring Training - First Impressions

    We are a week+ into Spring Training, which seems like the perfect time to breakdown our first impressions of our teams. Who is leading the outfield battle in St Louis? Will Matt Carpenter remember how to hit the ball? Are these rotation stats accurate - for both teams? These are some of the topics we dive into - plus some coverage outside of our camps. Its Spring Training, so it doesnt hold much weight, but we will over analyze it still. Strap in, its only week 1.

  • Episode 42: Let the March Begin

    March has arrived, and so has Spring baseball. Join us as we read way too much into the first couple of games played by our teams (we wont be so bad with full weeks of games being played moving forward.... probably). We give a recap on the Hot Stove outlook, and discuss some guys still on the market that could improve most of the ball clubs in the league. Then we wrap it up with talking through CBS Sports rankings of teams with the most pressure to win in 2021. We agree with some, we disagree with some - its about as you would expect. Jump on in, the water is fine.
