Summary

Today’s word of the day is ‘slice’ as in Kraft slice of American cheese as in pizza slice as in Kimbo Slice, but really as in Robert Kraft. The New England Patriots have signed every free agent available this offseason and Kraft opened up the checkbook. What made Bill Belichick and the Patriots go all in? (12:37) Salvador Perez was given a longterm deal from the Kansas City Royals. Not just any kind of deal. The largest deal in franchise history! $82M over four years. Why would they do this? (26:00) Spring Training is all about staying healthy. Major problems in Arizona as Zac Gallen felt some discomfort in his forearm… while hitting! Oh boy. (32:52) Review: Barb and Star go to Vista Del Mar (37:20) NPPOD. (40:50) Nike pulls brand from “undifferentiated” retailers… say goodbye to the Mom and Pop stores. It’s a sad reality for these small businesses. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
