Bobby and Alex talk about advice columns, the side of baseball’s rags to riches stories that doesn’t get discussed, and what the Orioles show us about the state of tanking in baseball. Then they answer listener voicemails about a player’s union eligibility, Statcast’s strange deployment, and the decline of custom shirseys. This week’s Three Up, Three Down features one broadcaster’s introduction to NFTs and rule bending for yellow bats.
