Judge Meets With Giants
We’re back and it’s the Thanksgiving episode of Baseball Is Dead! We got the numbers in and it looks like we retained about 90% of our audience from the previous show which is AMAZING! Thank you to all the listeners who rode with us this year and we can’t wait to take it to the next level! Just like everyone predicted, the Angels have been the most active team in the offseason to this point. Our Angels correspondent joins the pod to talk some Halos to open it up. Joey dropped a new video on Dock Ellis and his infamous no-hitter on LSD which leads us to a discussion about players performing while on drugs. Aaron Judge is in San Fransisco this week and reportedly will meet with the Giants. We’re breaking down the very scripted video that made its way onto social media of Judge being spotted in a SF hotel. We’re also comparing his quotes about free agency to other free agents in baseball. Alek Manoah said Gerrit Cole is the worst cheater in baseball history and we’re going down the list of cheaters to see if anyone is worse than Cole. Albert Pujols won Comeback Player of the Year and Jared thinks Mark Appel deserved it. Joey does not. We make some predictions about Perfect Game balls and talk about Jeremy Peña giving out dive thru orders after winning the World Series. Happy Thanksgiving!
