Good Morning,
Welcome back to another edition of “The Over The Monster Podcast.” On this episode of the show Keaton and I kick it off by discussing the big Chris Sale news. We address the following questions surrounding Sale’s health and its impact on the season:
- How does this change the season outlook?
- Do you think he will still end up getting Tommy John surgery?
- Who takes the fifth starter spot?
- What do we see Colin McHugh’s role being with the team?
- How much less likely is this team to contend for a wild card?
- Are they more likely to become sellers at the deadline?
We then discuss Christian Yelich’s new 9-year $215MM contract and what this could say about Mookie Betts’ value. Keaton and I disagree on this one.
We hit on some key spring training battles including the back of the bullpen with updates on the performances of:
- Josh Osich
- Austin Brice
- Ryan Brasier
- Colten Brewer
- Many more
We also discuss the encouraging spring from Martín Pérez, Nathan Eovaldi, and Eduardo Rodriguez. Our last topic is a discussion of Keaton’s first article at OTM where he discusses who will lead off this season. We then answer all of your listener questions.
