Summary

Tim Kurkjian and Buster discuss whether Aaron Judge will continue to improve this season, if Tim has given up on the Orioles, what’s the temperature of the trade market, the Red Sox's options at first base, and the Zach Wheeler as the best kept secret in baseball. Then, Hembo stops by to talk about his top-three MVP candidates in each league, the Rangers making him look stupid, Nationals nailing the Juan Soto trade, and a look back at Paul Skenes’ first year in MLB. Later, with Chandler Simpson running roughshod on the bases, Buster revisits his Spring Training conversation with Simpson.
