Hello and welcome to episode 1037 of Effectively Wild,

a baseball podcast from Fangrass presented by our Patreon supporters.

I'm Ben Lindbergh of the Ringer, joined by Jeff Sullivan of Fangrass.

Hello, you're talking unusually fast.

Yeah, well, we haven't usually long episode to get to,

or at least it was a long recording process.

I don't know whether that will come through in the actual finished product,

So we are going to do our last preview podcast today.

So later in this episode, we're going to talk to the Wall Street Journal's Jared Diamond about the Yankees,

but before that, we will talk to Travis Sotchick from Fangrass about the pirates.

And even before that, we have a bit of banter to get to.
