Customer Reviews
A Diversity of Offerings
Thanks to DVR someone at least mentions the Brewers once in a while. Baseball is better this year. The numbers are cool. Cheers
Roundtable is the best
Grant, Marc, and Andy are my favorite team on this podcast. Clever, funny. Erudite, not annoying. They know baseball and baseball details. I think it was Andy who did a great Tom Waits impression. How cool was that. He’s only about 35 and he knows Tom Waits. Andy is my favorite but they are all good. Can’t stand the “made up” stat WAR. Way too convoluted and random. Only pitching stat that matters is ERA and innings. Strikeouts is window dressing. Just keep guys from scoring.
