RIP John Sterling, MLB Players of the Month, Weekend Recap, Hitter Platoon Pandemic, This Week in Baseball

from Bases, Barrels & Ballplayers · host basesbarrelsballplayers

Hey there Ballers! Today, we start today on a somber note as we reflect and honor the memory of iconic longtime radio play by play announcer John Sterling, the Voice of the Yankees, as he passed away at the age of 87 earlier this morning. Later, we take a look around the league as we discuss the players, relievers, pitchers, and rookies of the month along with recapping all of the weekend baseball action. Be sure to tune in on our segment discussing the growing hitter platoon trend and why we feel it could lead to future league wide offensive futility. Finally, we preview the games around the league set to start tonight and tomorrow as well as announcing our next content trip which will commence this Friday. Lots to unpack, let’s ball!
