I haven't intentionally done an old fashioned radio listener call-in since my late teens

Is it blasphemy to say that Rakim's best work was not done with Eric B.? I don't think I'm the only one.
Davy Andrews

It is blasphemy, but that doesn't make it untrue.

I say intentionally, because back in January, I called into the wrong St. Louis radio station, for some reason they stuck me on the air, I was literally the only person that thought I was the guest, which was incredibly ackward
Davy Andrews
2:50
That's amazing.

Thairo Estrada seems like a dude who could just put up like a 4-5 WAR season out of nowhere

Nah, without more power/another juice ball he's capped at 2-3

I really like the idea of the baseball zen ads, but my lord the sound editing is terrible

I definitely appreciate what they're going for! But I agree that they don't always nail it.

I was confused why the hosts weren't introducing me or asking me questions and thought I had a question.

Update on MLB.TV in browser (Chrome, Mac): it looks like they've programmed in that thing where ads pause if you tab away, and resume when you tab back. So if you tab away, the new inning won't come up until you refresh. Good time to use a two screen setup if you have one
Davy Andrews

Extremely helpful, thanks!

and I just got more confused from there until they apparently felt I had gone on too long and cut me off.

I have to go to a meeting. If anything cool happens in the next 30 minutes I'm relying you kind people to tell me.

The lack of names on the back of jerseys.....why is this still a thing? Most people see games on tv, and often, often, not their favorite team.

I personally prefer names

Is Gibson really Bal #1 starter???
Alex Eisert
2:52
Grayson Rodriguez should be. Otherwise, Dean Kremer has the highest WAR projection.
2:53
But Kremer isn't far ahead of Gibson either...

Adley was *this close* to tearing something horribly on that slide
Davy Andrews
2:54
When I was 15, I took a cleat to the face on that exact same kind of slide. I still have a tiny scar.
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:54
Adley kinda slid early and tried to do like this somersault thing and get his hand in there and almost tsunamied Arroyo's face

Rautcshmann with the worst slide ever.
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:54
At first, it looked like he might have done a Jason Kendall ankle thing and that's why the slide looked like that
2:55
Thank goodness that was not the case

Oof, Adley just kicked Christian Arroyo in the head on an awkward slide

I saw that slide and closed my eyes and muted the TV

Elias: We're going to be competitive all year in my estimation, and my goal is that this team makes the playoffs.
Alex Eisert

He's so full of it lol.
