Summary

It’s a meaty Monday episode and today we’re reacting to the 2024 Baseball Hall of Fame Class! We talk about the flaws in the voting system and why we would’ve liked to see more players elected. We’re checking in on free agent rumors, specifically Montgomery, Snell, and Bellinger. Dallas returns from shoulder surgery and joins the show just in time for Jayhay’s 1948 MVP Hindsight segment, Storytime with Joe, and our Boston Red Sox Mt. Rushmore.
