Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about a surprising amount of Mo Vaughn content, a rash of spring injuries (including Gerrit Cole‘s Tommy John surgery and other Yankees ailments), the latest A’s and Rays woes, and more. Then they preview the 2025 Los Angeles Dodgers (26:11) with The Athletic’s Fabian Ardaya, and the 2025 Colorado Rockies (1:34:00) with The Rockies Insider’s Patrick Lyons. 2025 EW Season Preview Series ALBALCHWATHBOSCLEHOUNYYDETLAATBRKCRSEATORMINTEX NLATLCHCARIMIACINCOLNYMMILLADPHIPITSDPWSNSTLSFG .intro-team, .intro-team td { font-family: lato, Arial, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 20px; } .intro-team .intro-header { /*display: none;*/ text-align: center; } .team-lg { text-align: center; width: 100%; } /* [class^="team-box-"] > div { display: inline-block; width: 48%; } [class^="team-box-"] > div table { width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; } [class^="team-box-"] > div td { background-color: #efefef; border: 1px solid #ccc; line-height: 2; text-align: center; cursor: default; } [class^="team-box-"] > div a { color: #000; text-decoration: none; display: block; width: 100% } [class^="team-box-"] > div a:hover { color: #50ae26; } [class^="team-box-"] > div a.link-inactive { color: #aaa; } */ Audio intro: Luke Lillard, “Effectively Wild Theme” Audio interstitial 1: El Warren, “Effectively Wild Theme” Audio interstitial 2: Liz Panella, “Effectively Wild Theme” Audio outro: Jonathan Crymes 2, “Effectively Wild Theme” Link to Vaughn story 1 Link to Vaughn story 2 Link to Enhanced Games wiki Link to Hang Up episode Link to FG post on Cole Link to Ben on spring injuries Link to Rays report Link to A’s report Link to A’s report 2 Link to A’s feature Link to Russell on rep. level Link to offseason spending Link to FG payrolls page Link to Dodgers depth chart Link to Dodgers offseason tracker Link to Sasaki signing info Link to “Lettuce” digital short Link to EW TJ research Link to “Are We the Baddies?” Link to cherry blossoms info Link to prank war article Link to prank war video Link to Fabian’s author archive Link to Rockies depth chart Link to Rockies offseason tracker Link to Rock Talk 1 Link to Rock Talk 2 Link to Colorado pronunciation Link to hangover effect info Link to Freeland on EW Link to Ben on Freeland in 2018 Link to Sheehan on Bud Black Link to Monfort prediction Link to Patrick’s work Link to Patrick’s podcast Link to trademark article 1 Link to trademark article 2 Link to trademark article 3 Link to trademark renewal Link to EW gift subscriptions  Sponsor Us on Patreon  Email Us: [email protected]  EW Subreddit  Effectively Wild Wiki  iTunes Feed (Please rate and review us!)  Spotify Feed  Facebook Group  Bluesky Account  Twitter Account  Get Our Merch! var SERVER_DATA = Object.assign(SERVER_DATA || {}); Source
