Episode 204 – He Was Younger Once

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

In this episode, Dylan Higgins and Matthew Dewoskin discuss the White Sox (and Matt) “rolling,” another split slate, Robin Ventura’s style of management in regards to the Chris Sale situation, confusing Miggy with McGee with McGehee, Anthony Ranaudo’s magical name, Sean Manaea trying to turn things around, being enthusiastic about a Joe Mauer pick, looking closer at Dan Straily’s splits, Troy Tulowitzki’s return to prominence, and Dylan maybe possibly considering some Reds righties against Madison Bumgarner (in a stretch).

Contest picks for Wednesday, July 27: Archie Bradley @ MIL (Dylan) and Zach Eflin @ MIA (Matt).
