"The Basement" is a weekly talk show where two brothers talk sports, pop culture, 1990s wrestling, dart championships, curling strategy, and IHOP/Applebee's combo restaurants. We don't have any special insight. We aren't terribly smart. We just started recording our conversations so our 100-year old grandma could listen to us on her iPad.

    When Can You Judge a Player's Skill?

    This week on The Basement Podcast: How long does it take for you to know when a player is what their recent performance/statistics say they are (for good or for bad)? How long does Ildemaro Vargas need to keep hitting at his current clip before we say he is among the better hitters in baseball after years of being an average player? How long before we say Kyle Tucker isn't the same guy as he was in Houston? We try and come up with an answer...not sure we came close. We also talk xBACON which is disappointingly not a delicious super bacon-like product. Enjoy!
