Sidearm Delivery - Arizona State's Willie Bloomquist, D1Baseball's Kendall Rogers Apr 02, 2025

Show notes

Arizona State head coach Willie Bloomquist, who's team is 19-9 with a 7-2 start in Big 12, joins the show to talk about his new conference as well as his efforts to rebuild the Sun Devils program into the national championship contender they were regularly during his playing days. He also discusses the stacked midweek schedule he put together this season and why he 'doesn’t recruit turds.'

Later in the episode, D1Baseball national writer Kendall Rogers joins the show to talk about the Sun Devils and the rest of the Big 12 as we reach the midway point in the season in a fascinating conference that has been all sorts of topsy turvy from the preseason predictions. We discuss early frontrunners for conference pitcher and player of the year and who is for real versus who is maybe skating by.
