Episode 154 – Going Through A Stupid Period

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

In this episode, Dylan Higgins and Matthew Dewoskin discuss a big split slate, Melvin Upton Jr. conquering Yonder Alonso, J.A. Happ being impressive and uninspiring at the same time, Matt having no pity for the Angels, loving Mark Reynolds at home getting a lefty, shouting out to regular listeners who are active on Twitter, Martin Prado hitting everything, Dylan forgetting Trevor Story as an obvious pick, the return of the train outside Dylan’s house, remembering Lonnie Chisenhall’s insane day, and Bob Uecker supposedly being the master of the mute button.

Contest pick for Wednesday, May 11: Jerad Eickhoff @ ATL (Dylan and Matt).
