Bat Flips Galore feat. Mina Kimes

Ep. 31 — Bobby and Alex banter about Joey Votto’s relatable offseason diet, throw out their own #hot #takes on the J.D. Martinez and Eric Hosmer signings, get baffled by the Rays, have another pace of play conversation for some reason, and talk about how long they could endure playing major league baseball. Then, they bring on ESPN senior writer Mina Kimes to talk about her story on bat flips in South Korea, balancing a media career, and life as a Mariners fan. The three of them wrap it up by drafting a team of their favorite dogs. Follow Mina on Twitter here.
