What do baseball games and podcasts have in common? They're probably a little too long.

But that doesn't stop you from watching, so it shouldn't stop you from listening, either!

This week, Tara and Alex tackle the Tommy Edman conundrum, complete with a pop quiz on WHY Mike Shildt keeps starting him and batting him 2nd.

Then, they dive into the ongoing debate over whether baseball in its current form is actually bad, what can be done about it, and why former players can't seem to say anything nice about the game they once loved.

Plus, Alex's Chirp of the Week serves as a reminder that Carlos Zambrano is still pitching... somewhere.
