This used to be a good podcast, in the days of Sam Miller. Meg Rowley has completely ruined it. It’s unlistenable, and it’s a shame. The only reason this isn’t a one-star review is bc I like Ben Lindberg. But unfortunately I can only listen to old episodes, or new ones when rowley is on vacation, and Lindberg brings in replacements like Clemens, Longenhagen, or Jaffe. If he would find a better cohost, this could go back to being a top podcast again.
I support BUT

There is a substantial wave in thirst for prospect and (MLB)draft knowledge. Eric is our proverbial drink for abstaining from that thirst. Love him on the podcast! Thanks for the work and drive you all have.
