Episode 92 - Rays Up for Rocktober
from Bat Flips And Nerds · host Bat Flips & Nerds
The Rays have had such an unusual season that we enlist specialist help to discuss them, in the form of regular Rays expert Rob Noverraz. Rob, Ben, and Darius discuss the experience and effectiveness of the opener, if the fanbase is on board with the strategy, and whether trading star players has actually helped them. There is a check in on Ben's health after a remarkable week which has put his Rockies atop the NL West again, and receive an extremely vehement response on the topic of whether they can hang on. Listener questions follow, with some mathematical debate over how likely it is that the Red Sox and Yankees would both fail to reach the ALCS, the recent call-ups that have impressed the guys the most, which teams will start rebuilding this offseason, whether Carlos Correa will return to form, and last year's stand-outs who have failed to impress in 2018.
