Shownotes Transcript

Elly De La Cruz hit a 445 foot home run last night after umpires forced him to remove a plastic censor covering his bat earlier in the game. Nationals manager Dave Martinez had some choice word for Elly after the game and said he's not a fan of his "antics" two weeks into his big league debut. We're analyzing the situation and trying to figure out who, if anyone, is at fault. Other topics include the top free agents in baseball at the trade deadline, a standings check-in around the league, some weird discrepancies with the WAR statistic, and more! We also have an interview with Cubs ace Justin Steele. Thanks for listening and we'll see you next week!
