Quick Hits: The Aces Look Good, Ohtani's Bombs, An Unboxing

Joe Rizzo brings you baseball. Riz & Jeff "The Dawg" Healy did Quick Hits for this episode. They kicked if off with an unboxing, courtesy of our friends at StratOMatic.com. The Rizzo brothers, Producer Xavier and Webmaster Dominic, handled the opening of the box and the description of its contents while Riz and Dawg followed along with excitement to see the cards and dice from the best baseball board game ever. Check out the video on our YouTube or Facebook! The discussion moved to the aces for the respective New York teams, as Jacob deGrom and Gerrit Cole already look like they're in midseason form on March 16. There was a breakdown of what lies behind them in the respective rotations of the Mets and Yankees. Plus there was a look at the Nationals, with Max Scherzer and Stephen Strasburg. And then the conversation turned to the spring bomb Shohei Otani launched for the Angels, a 464-foot blast against AL Cy Young winner Shane Bieber. There was a dive into what the Angels could do with their two-way superstar to maximize his value, with Riz & Dawg going outside the box and disagreeing with what has been conventional wisdom. Dawg got things going with Veteran of the Day. It was 2nd Lt. Jocelyn Coutant, the first female infantry officer in the Connecticut Army National Guard. A former sergeant in an aviation unit, she decided to go to Officer Candidate School, then branched to Infantry Basic Officer Leader Course. She is now deploying with her unit, the 1-102 Infantry Battalion to the Horn of Africa to fight the War on Terror.
