Hello, to this day when I hear that song, I see you standing there on that long,

discount shates, stopoff tank, flip flops and cut off.

Hello again, everybody, and welcome back to the 12-6 podcast. As always, I am your host, Colin McHugh. Thank you so much for joining us. In a world right now where nothing seems quite normal, it actually looks like we might be getting some baseball back soon. And I know we're all excited about the prospect of seeing a game on TV again every night, but I would urge all of us, myself included, to be

patient. As much as we all want some normalcy in our lives again, we have to let the facts and

numbers tell us when it's safe to go back to work, not just a gut feeling that it'll probably be okay.

Listen, I want to be back on the field as much as anyone. I'm working out every day in my garage.

I'm throwing simulated bullpins into a net in my neighbor's backyard.

And that's the same story with guys across the league.

We are keeping ourselves as ready as possible so that when we get the green light,

we can give you your daily dose of sports entertainment and play this game that we all love.

That being said, today's guest is someone I'm

super excited to have on the show. He is former Major League Reliever and current podcast host,

Eric O'Flaherty. His new podcast with Atlanta Brave's beatwriter Dave O'Brien is called

755 Is Real. And you can find it for free wherever you get your podcasts. The conversation

today was nostalgic for me a little bit

because it really felt like a normal everyday bullpen conversation.

We talked about baseball karma,

how the best bullpen guys have the worst mindset,

and our own theory is about pitching hungover.

As always, if you haven't subscribed to the podcast,

make sure you do that now so that you are up to

date whenever new episodes air and without further ado i hope you enjoy today's conversation
