Alex and Bobby break down A-Rod’s takes on social media, electronics, spreadsheet, and more. Then they bring on incoming associate editor at Baseball Prospectus Shaker Samman to unfold his theory of consecutive perfect games, as well as what the Super League can tell us about baseball (and vice versa). Finally, a Three Up, Three Down featuring the anomaly of Jacob deGrom and a rather expensive ballpark.
