Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley talk about listener responses to their banter about stunning Statcast throwing speeds, then (12:42) talk about Nick Ahmed’s unsung nice glovework, the A’s turning out to be (barely) much less traditionally horrible than they initially appeared, the AL West race, and the way the Rangers lacking the playoffs would reinforce conflicting narratives about baseball. After that (57:24), they reply listener emails about Mookie Betts overtaking Mike Trout in profession WAR, the best way to inform when a staff will get good at participant improvement, and the place it could be best to cover a smaller base amongst larger bases, plus a Future Blast (1:32:26) from 2056.
