Shownotes Transcript

The Padres hosted a fan fest in San Diego over the weekend and the turnout was massive. We're opening the show talking about Padres fans' response to ownership flipping the switch over the last couple years and committing to championship caliber rosters. This leads to discussion about spending in baseball and Mets owner Steve Cohen's comments on not caring how other owners view him. A former guest of this podcast was caught editing his own Wikipedia page and his name is Joe West. We're also reacting to the news of the Negro Leagues being added to MLB The Show '23. At the end of the episode we're giving our personal Mount Rushmore of players for the Expos/Nationals. Enjoy!
