Inside Baseball: A Fantasy Baseball Podcast

There's so much show this week, I don't even know how to summarize it (also because I have a very limited vocabulary!) Marcus and Jordan join us this week to talk about Jordan's surprise team performance and why it might not be a fluke. Then Marcus leads a discussion on trade philosophy and the crew discusses how some of their own trades have gone down. The we talk the Performance Enhanced Games and former MLB player and season 1 guest, Rory Tremmill is back on the show with trainer and biohacker Rex Wolftooth to discuss his quest to play professional baseball again at 62!

That's right, Ricky Shurt, VP at the newly christened Insider Network stops by to talk about all the new podcasts debuting this year. But, there's some strange stuff going on that's got Brandon a little weirded out. But that can't stop us from talking about excellent catchers, MLB rookies who look like your Dad, Orioles magic and bad recyclers. Plus, a special, sincere, and heartfelt apology to fans of Chicago Hot Dogs. I hope you're not at work, because this one's gonna blow your socks off!
