A short from our podcast this week. Why did the #Brewers get rid of Caleb Durbin so fast? He was 3rd in NL ROY. #RedSox may have gotten the steal of the winter.

It's nice to hear people talking about the #Pirates in a more positive way. We talked about CF O'Neil Cruz who is always a key & needs to do one big thing to make him better at the plate. Check out this short from our podcast this week.

Emmanuel Clase of the Cleveland Guardians has a bigger problem than we thought. In 48 different games he was accused of manipulating his performance to pay off on prop bets. We got into the spiral that is overtaking pro sports which we think is bound to get worse. Check out this clip from our ep.

We take future HOFer Aaron Judge's exploits for granted. What would happen if Judge was merely great as opposed to extraordinary? #Yankees will have excellent pitching but do they have enough hitting from the other players? From our podcast this week.

If Bonds & Clemens got in would any HOFers show up for their induction? When we talked with The Athletic's Dan Brown on our podcast this week, as a BBWAA voter he wondered about Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens getting in and how many HOFers would decline to show up for their induction?

Career .300 hitters not in the HOF
Would all career .300 hitters eligible for induction get voted in today?
Would an #MLB player retiring today having 10+ years service time & career .300+ average be a slam-dunk HOFer? It hasn't been that way. Read my latest post.
