For the record, it is SOOO nice that you add the timestamps per player discussed. It probably isn’t what you ultimately hope for, but the ability to cherry pick the podcast portion that is relevant to me is HUGE for time-strapped listeners.
This should be a standard rule for all Fangraphs podcasts!
Thank you.
Where would you put Ryu in the ranking of the pitchers you talked about today?
Ryu is going to get merked by the Friars on Thurs. He won’t make it through 4 innings. Do not give ppl false hope. Love the podcast, but c’mon guys.
The o/u on Padres is just 3 runs, so if you really think so it seems like a pretty easy bet.
Yeah, you definitely know what you’re talking about….
Ryu ends the night with 4.2 IP/6ER line. Yeah I’ll take the over dummy. Pads crush LHP.
you preferred guerra to odorizzi. would you be willing to recommend dropping odorizzi FOR guerra?
