Description
What to talk about as the MLB season rounds the first-month post? Well, Mike and Jon text regularly about many things--and a good portion of those are baseball-related. So we...
show moreTopics included:
- how can we "plant flags" for early-round players that we value when we are inundated by the groupthink of ADP? (or, should Zack Wheeler have been a first-round pick?)
- why does the three-week sample at the beginning of the season hold sway over our minds and player evalutions long after those hot or cold starts have ended? (or, why do you still feel bad about Francisco Lindor when you should feel bad about Matt Olson?)
- it's a wacky ERA leaderboard! Is this small-sample nonsense or is the SP landscape changing?
It's a freewheeling grab-bag of a conversation, hope you enjoy!
