Some big signings have happened over the course of the week and the boys are here for it. They talk about the recent Michael Pineda signing in Detroit, which was the consolation prize after the top arms have all been taken. What could Pineda bring to the club, and why didn't he last on other teams he played for? The Dodgers, Twins and Red Sox have all leveled up their squads for the season, and the boys discuss some of the inside details of those dealings. Of all the new deals being agreed upon and arbitration wrapping up, this leads to an interesting early look at what might happen to Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge. What if he has a good season? What if the bottom falls out? Will the Yankees spend big for him or let him walk. If they let him walk, where is the best fit for him to play? The boys let the theories fly! This past week two new rules (the Ohtani Rule & the Phantom Runner rules) were signed into the league. The boys talk the good, the bad and the ugly of these rules. Afterwards, they continue their Then and Now series by selecting 15-11 Greatest Games as well as picking the best right fielders in the game right now. They round out the show with Collection Corner.
