The Baseball Bar-B-Cast is back with a new episode, following a relatively quiet Thursday in the baseball world. Jake Mintz & Jordan Shusterman discuss various topics such as Detroit Tigers prospect Max Clark’s custom cleats, Cleveland Guardians pitcher Triston McKenzie pitching through a torn ligament, and Mike Trout’s return to dominating baseball. They also share their good, bad & Uggla for the week, including news about Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez, Colorado Rockies hitting coach Hensley Meulens, and the struggles of the Boston Red Sox defense.
In the latter part of the show, they react in real-time to the New York Mets city connect uniform reveal and share their thoughts on what they like and dislike about the new release. They also discuss some headlines to keep an eye on for the upcoming weekend in baseball.
The hosts break down the disappointing start and debut of Texas Rangers pitcher Jack Leiter, as well as highlight Logan Webb’s strong presence in the San Francisco Giants rotation.
