Not A Baseball Town

The world has changed since we last recorded this show. On this episode, we talk about the odds of us watching an MLB game this year, the implications of shortening or canceling the season, and the fact that with the entire league shut down, the Mets are still contending with a season-ending injury. Andrew reviews Jesse Dougherty's new book, Buzz Saw. The UpNate: most memorable regular season games from 2019.Links:Jesse Dougherty's Twitter accountBuzz Saw by Jesse DoughertyThe Grind by Barry SvrlugaCharlie Slowes on Cameo

Andrew is back from Spring Training and gives us a full report of how the '20 Nats look from close up. We also discuss coronavirus' potential effect on the upcoming baseball season and share the moments during the '19 postseason when we had little to no hope. This week's UpNate: the Yankees' injury report.

We're back with Episode 2, with Andrew recording from his spring training trip to West Palm Beach. Carter Kieboom isn't inspiring confidence, but Nats pitchers are looking solid. Andrew shares tips for West Palm Beach-trip planning and educates Gayle on how Vegas calculates MLB World Series odds. And Nate weighs in on the Dodgers and how they're looking in 2020. (Short answer: they look good.) 

We discuss how the Nats fared in the offseason, and whether we can we win without Anthony Rendon. Oh, and how about that little cheating scandal?
