HR 1 – Arrighetti Struggles, USMNT Development Debate & QOTD

from In The Loop

ITL starts the show reacting to Spencer Arrighetti’s recent struggles on the mound and asks if it’s officially time for “Arrighetti and meatballs.” The guys discuss how rough his outings have been, what’s gone wrong, and what the Astros can realistically do moving forward if his struggles continue. Is this just a young pitcher going through growing pains, or is it becoming a bigger concern for a team trying to contend? Then the conversation shifts to the USMNT after their disappointing World Cup loss. ITL reacts to the result and dives into a bigger discussion about player development in America, how the United States compares to other countries, and what needs to change for the program to take the next step. The hour wraps with today’s QOTD: What’s your favorite “HOLY BLEEP” moment in sports?
