Effectively Wild Episode 1129: The Darvish Dodgers Difference

by
October 27, 2017

EWFI

Ben Lindbergh and Jeff Sullivan banter about the all-time leaders in WAR for two teams, what Yu Darvish has done differently with the Dodgers, and whether Carlos Correa or Corey Seager will have the more valuable career, then answer listener emails about home-field advantage in the playoffs, projecting (and learning from) Charlie Morton’s breakout, why baseball is in a high-BABIP era, whether fielders are getting better or worse, the golden age of interleague play, what we mean when we say “short series,” challengers to Jamie Moyer’s home runs allowed record, and more.

Audio intro: Lydia Loveless, "Can’t Change Me"
Audio outro: Spooky Tooth, "Love Really Changed Me"
