    2020 All-Stars (s5e17) - The Byron Buxton Dilemna

    Angels in the outfield and the infield! We discuss the big moves by the Angels. They added Justin Upton and Brandon Philips to their offense and Houston added Justin Verlander. But we also waste a lot of time on smaller deals like Cameron Maybin and Mike Cameron’s son. Don’t worry, we keep it obscure. We also discuss the recent surge by Byron Buxton. I’ll ruin the suspense. Todd still believes. I still don’t believe. Fool me once… As always, check us out on Twitter @2020AllStars, Instagram 2020AllStars, and iTunes. Season 5 Episode 17 (49:00)

    2020 All-Stars (s5e18) - Panic at Chavez Ravine

    Are we panicked about the Dodgers slide? We talk about a bunch of things that have very little to do with the fantasy baseball season. We jump all over the place in this episode. Probably best to just download it and then rate and review us. If you want one name for next year, Ronald Acuna. He could be the next big thing.

    2020 All-Stars (s5e16) - Post All-Star break

    Things went awry with both our team and our young pitchers. But we begin with a chat about Yu Darvish. Short story short, he’ll be who we thought he was. Talking of big stars, we discuss the Bryce Harper injury. Of course, I had a similar injury so we pretend to think we know what we are talking about because something similar happened to us. Todd loves the big name pitchers. The beginning of this pod is all over the place. We go back to our bread and butter with a chat about under 50% owned guys.

    2020 All-Stars (s5e15) - The Kids are Coming

    We discuss the two newest young third basemen that came up this week. Yoan Moncada and Rafael Devers were called up this week. We actually discussed these guys a few weeks ago. Todd thought Moncada was going to get more ABs, and I was higher on Devers… Now? You gotta listen to find out. The next subject is the injuries to big stars and their replacements. Carlos Correa went down with a torn thumb ligament. There are surprising a lot of guys out there to talk about as replacements on the wire and even on the Astros themselves. Final subject… oldie but goodie, Closerpocalypse. As always, check us out on Twitter @2020AllStars, Instagram 2020AllStars, and iTunes. Season 5 Episode 15 (45:50)

    2020 All-Stars (s5e14) - Back From the Break

    Sorry, this one is coming late. We chatted about change you can believe in coming out of Chicago and Washington putting out a wild dumpster fire. What? Baseball? Baseball… barely. As always, check us out on Twitter @2020AllStars, Instagram 2020AllStars, and iTunes. Season 5 Episode 14 (45:41)

    2020 All-Stars (s5e13) - Real All-Stars Announced

    The real all-star team has been announced and we discuss the surprises. Where there is Smoak, there is fire! We discuss Yonder Alonso vs Justin Smoak and who we think is more for real / more surprising. We also discuss the return of Freddie Freeman once again. In the NL, we discuss the middle infielders that were surprises. Later on in the pod, we continue with post-hype guys like Kevin Gausman. We then meander around the subject of a bunch of speed guys. Billy Hamilton, Elvis Andrus, Brent Gardner, Dee Gordon, Trea Turner. The kids are coming up. We discuss the two big outfielders that got the call, Nick Williams and Clint Frazier. Lastly, Closerpocalyse. Same ole, same ole. As always, check us out on Twitter @2020AllStars, Instagram 2020AllStars, and iTunes. Season 5 Episode 13 (48:15)

    2020 All-Stars (s5e12) - Dodger lefty down for the count

    We talk about the Julio Urias injury. He’s got a shoulder injury and he done. Pretty much a drop everywhere and we discuss possible replacements. Rick Porcello vs Alex Cobb, Trevor Bauer vs Mike Montgomery, Andrew Moore, Dutch Oven… does that sound exciting? Hey, it’s bleak out there. On the offensive side, we chat Judge vs Bellinger. We are squarely in the Bellinger but Todd throws out the first rounder talk. Where does Bellinger rank among the league’s elite first basemen? I’m not ready to crown him, but Todd’s take is coming in hot. On the Judge side, we both agree on selling the hype. Are any of these guys as good as Matt Adams? ha, jk. We end the pod with Closerpocalypse. Alright, enjoy! As always, check us out on Twitter @2020AllStars, Instagram 2020AllStars, and iTunes. Season 5 Episode 12 (47:46)

    2020 All-Stars (s5e11) - Wood vs Berrios

    Pretty quiet week, so we chat about pitchers young and old. Alex Wood vs Jose Berrios vs any random name we can think of. We also rehash a bunch of articles on Fangraphs this week. Like we said, it was slow. Another subject on the docket is how has the flyball era effected how pitchers pitch. Finally, we touch on the current Closerpocalypse. Good times.
