In Episode 509, Patrick, Jeffrey, and Craig talk about Craigermetrics and riding in cars with children and live podcasts (not this one) and then discuss five mostly baseball topics.
1. What’s got into the cat?: Are the Pirates pre-frisky? Are the Pirates going to sign free agents? Are the Pirates going to keep Paul Skenes? Ask Betterridge.
2. Awards SZN: Patrick breaks down his AL Rookie of the Year ballot, sort of.
3. Fifty is Nifty: We chat about the free agent 50.
4. Around the Horn: The Jank is still here, as are Scott Boras‘s puns.
5. Let’s see how good Craig’s team Hall of Fame instincts are.
