    That wasn't the intent - we put it up for fun. As it happens, we unintentionally end up with bloopers, so we figured it would be fun to share one here and there.

    SoSHCast - Now part of Sports & Sorts!

    After a one-week break due to the holiday weekend, we're back with Episode 13. We discuss the EdRod injury, the "company" that Deven Marrero's multi-HR game puts him in (offering the rare opportunity for a Cesar Crespo name-drop), the Mike Trout injury, and the potential of a Rafael Devers...

    Wow, seriously thanks a lot. This is great feedback. At the risk of agreeing too much with Snod, the Timlin point is huge - I would have been clueless that we left that out to dry had you not pointed it out. We do like going on tangents when we can, I can't believe we missed that...

    Carter Capps is a big fat cheater who cheats

    This. Robertson has a crazy stride, so did Lincecum (who is listed at 5'11, and I think that might be generous). Aroldis Chapman is much taller than either of them at 6'4", but also has an extremely long stride (comparison here in the first article, care of Snod) - 120% of his height, on...

    SoSHCast - Now part of Sports & Sorts!

    While your entire post was super helpful I want to drill down a bit on these two points - I am using a Blue Yeti that I bought about a year ago, with my headphones directly plugged into it. Is it possible that my issue is all technique (and/or my desktop computer settings) than it is the...

    I hadn't seen this prior to today. Thanks so much, and I'll make sure to maintain my cover and not call up to my mom for any meatloaf mid-podcast.

    Carter Capps is a big fat cheater who cheats

    The video in my article (Tweeted by the Padres) clearly shows a hop, so it's not just a drag. The delivery was never "illegal" per se - but now it's a balk. It may also apply to Jordan Walden.

    Red Sox select Josh Rutledge in Rule 5 draft

    Aaron Hill is a free agent. Sandoval, Holt, Rutledge/Marco would be the 3B depth right now.

    Dave Dombrowski: The Right Man For The Job?

    Hey guys, it's all ok. This Neil Diamond fan says Eduardo Rodriguez should break out this year, so it's fine.

    The off-season

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contract The "chance" in this would have been not taking the option, and hoping you could get (edit) a pitcher as good as or better than (end edit) Clay for less than Cashner. In baseball economics, $3m is almost negligible, and it is damn near impossible to...

    Breaking Down Fernando's First Appearance

    A fair amount. For starters, it's a reasonable presumption that the waste pitch on 0-2 was agreed upon in Leon's mound visit, as Leon didn't put any signs down. Throwing a ball 50 yards outside to a great hitter is a pretty miserable strategy, but at least the pitch wasn't hittable. The...

    Breaking Down Fernando's First Appearance

    This. All day. ALL DAY. And he threw two extremely hittable pitches - one that resulted in Cano's tater, and the other that should have resulted in a Cano tater on the previous pitch. The at-bat was two successful pitches followed by a comedy of errors.
