Summary

In shocking news, Fernando Tatis Jr. has been suspended 80 games for testing positive for steroids and will miss the rest of the season. We're breaking down the news from a few different angles including his teammates reactions and how this might affect his image as arguably a top-five superstar in baseball. This leads to further discussion about steroid use among former and current players and how it affected the rest of their careers. Jared threw out the first pitch at Fenway on Sunday Night Baseball and it was right down the middle. This is huge for everyone because now we can keep making content. He walks us through the whole experience and talks about the nerves that started setting in days before it happened. Albert Pujols hit two home runs in a game and is now 11 home runs shy of 700. We talk about if 700 is realistically attainable. Dallas asks the crew what kind of baseball player you would want to create a team with if you could "build" a player, which basically is another segment of him blowing Shohei Ohtani. Enjoy!
