17: Hot starts to believe in Apr 22, 2019

Show notes

Guest: Dan Szymborski, Fangraphs

Our best friend of the podcast, Dan Szymborski returns to the show to share his thoughts about Tim Anderson’s bat flip, why pitchers and managers should be suspended for intentional beanings, which teams have staying power with their starts, and why Moncada and Rodon can continue to have a great 2019 season.

Josh and Jim recap the Tigers series in which it feels like the White Sox should have won this series. Reynaldo Lopez is looking better, but if the offense doesn’t find ways to score earlier (and more often) in games it’ll look like Anderson and Moncada’s improvements will be wasted.

Plus, the Minor League Report, and your questions in P.O. Sox.

Recorded: 4-10-2019
