Welcome to the podcast Slurm, the highly addictive future soft drink secreted from a giant alien worm! This week we talk about more fallout from the Mike Clevinger/Zach Plesac situation, the new Cincinnati Reds COVID scare and the Miami Marlins recovery process, including whether or not they should consider bringing back the players who got infected or just roll with the replacements they have.


In non-COVID news, Charlie Blackmon is chasing a .400 average for the season, even though it's severely shortened, and his teammate Daniel Bard is dealing after missing seven seasons due to mental health concerns. Somebody should get that dude a movie.


In our Uni-Watch segment, we tip our caps to MLB's handling of Negro League Day and Lovecraft Country's faithful recreation of Jackie Robinson's uniform.


Finally our Futurama Picks of the week: Attack of the Killer App (Ben), Murder on the Planet Express (Jacob)
