May 11, 2022 Season 2 Episode 59

This week the boys discuss the Toronto Blue Jays' approach to defense. This young team are putting their analytics to work and dominating with a four-man outfield in many scenarios. The boys debate how predictable hitting leads to this sort of brilliant fielding. The NL West is the best division in baseball right now-- change their mind. The Dodgers, Padres, Giants, Diamondbacks and Rockies are taking the league by storm, being the only division with every club over .500. This discussion turns into how to fix bad teams and what makes the good ones at the start of the season great. In Fantasy Factory, Steve answers questions, including how fantasy owners should approach relief pitchers on their rosters. The boys round out the show with Collection Corner and some Yogi Berra trivia!
