Summary

It’s a big day in the baseball offseason with Yoshinobu Yamamoto officially being posted to MLB and the bidding war has begun. We detail the posting process and talk about how these negotiations might play out over the next six weeks. We also start the show with breaking news as Lance Lynn signs with the Cardinals and we’re breaking down Aaron Nola’s contract with the Phillies. We dive deeper into the economic impact that Ohtani will bring to his new team and explore more landing spots for Yamamoto. The Mount Rushmore segment is back and this week it’s the Milwaukee Brewers! We also have the debut of Jayhay’s new MVP segment. We’re wrapping it up with our picks for most re-watchable MLB games of all time. BIG episode! Thanks for listening and we’ll see you next week!
