Episode 14 - Ryne Stanek ’Stros Across The Globe
-
- Baseball
Host George Martin (@AstrosFansUK) is joined by special guest, relief pitcher for the Houston Astros, Ryne Stanek (@rstanek_55). An interesting and insightful conversation opens with an assessment of how Stanek views the Astros' 2021 season up to this point, before breaking down the team's experience of playing in front of loud and hostile crowds in all road games played and how they are managing not only to deal with it but using it to bond closer together. Stanek goes on to explain how his experience of being an Astro differs from his perception of the club from the outside before joining and how much of a family unit the Astros clubhouse is. Stanek gives his view on the difficulties facing players on and off the field when traded mid-season and explains the relationship between himself, Kendall Graveman and closer Ryan Pressly as the Astros' remodelled back-end of the bullpen. Stanek also details further on the methodology of pitching coach Brent Strom when assessing new pitching recruits, before giving his views on MLB rule changes introduced in 2020. The discussion also includes a look at Ryne Stanek's road to becoming a major leaguer and the pressures he faced after not signing when drafted the first time around. Additionally, find out the winner of the latest Apollo Media t-shirt competition!
