The "Why Did We Trade for Jonathan Schoop?" Podcast

2 idiots get salty enough at their teams' futures they made a podcast to talk about it. Former members of charity stream MLBotball discuss what's going on in the ever-changing world of baseball, sports in general, and whoever is the current number 1 on Billboard's Hot 100, all while raising money for Meals on Wheels.

Tardis and Aether are confused by power rankings, the Cubs and Phillies not hitting at all, and NBA injuries. Oh and Angel Hernandez still having a job and losing his lawsuit. That's always a fun conversation. So is ESPN pushing stale narratives and stereotypes. And ARoid stroking his ego while trying to buy the Timberwolves.

MLBotBall reconvenes for a special episode of Why Did We Trade for Jonathon Schoop, where all of us steal each other's picks, some reaches occur, and Big Guy actually picks Bartolo Colon for no reason except to offer him to everyone for their best players. No, Aether will not except Jonathon Schoop for Mike Trout. Voices heard throughout the episode are: Aether, Tardis, SpecialFX, Berrybasher, BeardyBuddha, Pmister, Roman, Cookieea...

Spring training has begun, and so far Aether is on the hot track to being wrong about Kike Hernandez. Tardis loses sight of everything in life, and Wandavision delivers random twists that are actually good. Daft Punk quits making god-tier music, and the Astros keep getting away with it, "it" being known as "Being the Astros." LISTENER BEWARE: WANDAVISION SPOILERS FROM 36:36 TO 44:36

Brady won a Super Bowl, shocking. Aether's deaf, actually a bit shocking. Wandavision did WHAT?!?! Oh, and Pitchers and Catchers have finally reported, and we love to see it. Fangraphs put some odds up for the teams, and why the Rockies have higher odds to make the playoffs than the Orioles, we don't know. Aether misses Brock Holt, Tardis hates Philly sports media, and we make terrible playoff predictions. SPOILERS FOR WANDAVISION ...

Trevor Bauer breaks LA's bank accounts and Bob Nightengale's insider information and goes to the Dodgers for a metric too much money, Nolan Arenado is given 50 million dollars to go away to St. Louis, and unsurprisingly Wandavision is the best show on Disney+.
