By the way, I apologize in advance for the time or two I cough into the mic. I had no voice as of yesterday, so I was surprised I could even do the show today.

Sweet. I got stuff to do right now, and I work my first game tonight. This will definitely be on the agenda for when I get back.

Well we may have scooped everyone. We reported on our show that Contreras was suffering from back problems.

Nice job completing the show under the weather Jas; the Rally Crede got you through it.

 

Excellent job on breaking the story on Count. That’s very cool that Mario had that.

 

Good point on Gload. Unfortunately, he’s just a lost cause for us. Because we really have no need for him, but we need him as insurance. However, it’s unfair to expect anything for someone that only plays a few times a month, if he’s lucky.

 

And I’m also wanting more from Mack too; hopefully he gets in one of those hot streaks soon.

 

I agree with both of you on BA. You’ve got to stick with him. We don’t have any options readily available. He’s looked good the past couple games; hopefully he’ll continue to progress off that. And I don’t want Lofton either; I’m not too fond of that player either.

 

The squeeze was a good call yesterday too. I don’t think we should get away from small-ball. Obviously the pitching was the primary piece of the puzzle to winning the World Series; however, I consider the small ball just as important. I love how you both closed that topic; it’s not all about stats.
