Episode 149 – I’m Cheating With The Giants

The latest episode of “Field of Streams” is live!

In this episode, Dylan Higgins and Matthew Dewoskin discuss an obligatory Star Wars reference, Dylan’s modest bragging about a Steven Wright pick, Matt’s possibly crazy prediction about Jose Quintana, a history of bad starters in the back of the White Sox rotation, loving every Giants hitter as a pick again, learning how to pronounce Sean Manaea’s name, Dylan being more of a Chris Carter guy than a Joey Votto guy, reasons to like Brett Nicholas, looking into the very small sample size that is Chris B. Young’s splits this year, remembering John Danks, and scoping out things on iTunes that aren’t quite “Field of Streams.”

The latest episode of “Field of Streams” is live!

In this episode, Dylan Higgins and Matthew Dewoskin discuss Jon Gray’s outing, trusting in every hitter in the Giants lineup against Jon Moscot in Cincinnati, having no faith in anyone in the matchup in San Diego, Dylan’s five-year plan for podcast sponsorships, bad lefties representing DFS gold, looking at a few batter-versus-pitcher records (and recognizing how pointless they probably are), picking against Matt Wisler again, returning to Matt’s theory on the White Sox advance scouting department, Collin McHugh having bounceback potential, what would happen if Dylan and Matt ran a baseball team, Steven Wright, and baseball hats.
