About this episode
Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker discuss the latest news out of Spring Training as both Jordan Romano and Erik Swanson are dealing with arm issues, and why this team can't afford to be without their top two relievers for too long. With the Orioles in Dunedin to face the Blue Jays, analyst Ben McDonald breaks down Baltimore’s exciting young lineup and if he thinks 20-year-old phenom Jackson Holliday can make the team out of camp. Later, Blair and Barker react to Chris Bassitt’s comments on pitching velocity before welcoming Buck Martinez to the show (30:38). Jeff and Buck talk about today’s Jays lineup and how it could resemble the one we see on opening day, Justin Turner’s impact in the clubhouse, and Alejandro Kirk’s positive Spring.
