Summary

Today’s word of the day is ‘AAA’ as in triple A as in the minor leagues as in the Oakland Athletics are getting less fans than the minor league teams are. How bad is this? (13:10) So You Wanna Talk to Samson!? Someone asked me about Oli Marmol calling out Tyler O’Neil for not hustling and then benching him this early in the season. Interesting. (20:00) In back-to-back days we’ve seen star players ejected over pitch clock violations. Is MLB going to look into this or will we see more of this? (27:30) Review: The Night Agent. (30:00) The Ravens held a bizarre press conference. Eric DeCosta and John Harbaugh were somehow not prepared for questions about Lamar Jackson…. What? (37:00) NPPOD. (39:00) Mark Cuban finally spoke to the media about Jalen Brunson and the Mavericks. What’s happening there? We did a giveaway on YouTube today! It was live!
