Episode Notes
In Episode 523, Patrick, Jeffrey and Craig chat about Punch the monkey, update you on the Matcha Edit and Iron Chef, and then discuss five mostly baseball topics.
1. Spring Flings: News from around the camps: Konnor Griffin hits dingers, Alek Manoah throws fastballs (how fast, who knows) and Ryan Lambert eats (drinks?) eggs.
2. A Weekend in Utah Won't Fix What's Wrong With Us: Apparently Jeffrey has moved to the center of the baseball and adjunct soda universe.
3. Thanks, I Hate It: Three Xennials discuss minor league promotions and kids these days
4. Around the Horn: Some actual baseball news
5. I see me one year ago today, I remember none of it.
