Garrett Crochet's Extension, Problems In Atlanta, And Other Early-Season Storylines
Anthony Franco joins Darragh McDonald to discuss Garrett Crochet's contract extension, why the Red Sox chose this route instead of signing a big free agent this past offseason, the myriad of problems the Braves are facing including Jurickson Profar's PED suspension, the injury to Reynaldo Lopez and the team's 0-5 start. Also, they go over last week's trade that sent Nolan Jones to Cleveland for Tyler Freeman, the Astros going with an outfield alignment including two infielders Jose Altuve and Cam Smith, whether Smith's quick ascension to the majors changes their opinions on the teams return for Kyle Tucker, if an extension for Vlad Guerrero Jr. could still happen during the season, and Cal Raleigh, Tanner Bibee and Brandon Pfaadt all signing extensions.
