Our special guest this week is Sarah Spain, and we discuss the importance of a good start for a team with such high expectations, as well as Joe Maddon, Jake Arrieta, Kris Bryant, and much more.
Jake Arrieta threw another no-hitter and no one is that surprised…talk about high expectations.
Ryan has our question of the week on Rizzo hitting homeruns, Joel can’t quite match last week’s 60 Seconds with a Former Cub, but he gives it a shot with Bill Matlock, and Isaac has our At Bat of the Week with a Jason Hammel at bat.
Thank you for revisiting the “dancing on the grave” comment from Cardinals fans this week. When it was mentioned last week I thought it would be a great discussion point but was slightly lost in the sea of other comments and story lines.
Can you bring on Spain more often? While I enjoy the banter and knowledge brought by the normal cast, Ms. Spain brings some great insight. Perhaps more importantly I like that she busts your balls.
Very good stuff.
She definitely did all those things! And we’d absolutely love to have her on again, but we also understand she’s very busy and we were lucky that she agreed to squeeze us into her schedule. We’ll probably look to do the normal style show most frequently, but we’ll have a guest every few weeks.
As always, thank you for the feedback! We love getting suggestions for guests (pending the ability to get them), questions, and topics!
We won’t be having Sarah on again — she hurt our feelings too much by saying we were nerds who were afraid of girls. I had to watch 3 X-Men movies to get over the sting of that one, and then my mom came into the basement and told me to turn it down. Worst night ever!
Just kidding — yeah, Sarah is great. As Ryan said, she’s pretty busy conquering the world. But we’d love to have her on again sometime.
