Description:
Ben Lindbergh and Joe Sheehan banter about high school, the persistent, befuddling allure of Craig Kimbrel, the Oriolesâ recent struggles, the playoff-fumble potential of four teams that previously possessed 90-plus-percent playoff odds, their prediction philosophies, the potential for legislation to curb the excesses of sports betting, and what the surprise âretirementâ of Adrian Wojnarowski says about the difference between baseballâs biggest newsbreakers and those of other sports, plus a postscript (1:16:30) about the history of hating intentional walks.
