Chase Utley with Jayson Stark

Jim is joined by baseball writer at The Athletic and Hall of Fame voter Jayson Stark to breakdown the HOF candidacy of former Philadelphia Phillies second baseman Chase Utley. First, Jayson and Jim discuss the historic double-play combo of Jimmy Rollins and Chase Utley (5:41). Next, they cover Utley's performance in the 2008 World Series, why Utley reminds Jayson of Derek Jeter, and what to make of Utley earning 0 gold gloves despite his elite defensive advanced metrics (12:20). Finally, Jayson and Jim attempt to properly rank Utley among the best second basemen of his era (35:03), before making a final call on whether or not they believe Utley deserves a plaque in Cooperstown (48:18).
