Episode 705
Lead prospect analyst Eric Longenhagen is the guest on this edition of the pod, during which he explains how Yoan Moncada can possess a relatively high floor despite his contact issues; considers the subtle difference between home-run power and overall power; and insults the host with insults.

This episode of the program either is or isn’t sponsored by SeatGeek, which site removes both the work and also the hassle from the process of shopping for tickets.

I am conflicted on the level of manliness of the proposed bets. On one hand, severely impairing your masculinities; it’s two grown men drinking sangria together. On the other, defending my opinion of you both, at least you have proposed it be a full pitcher each, per bet.

When drinking sangria, one isn’t concerned about conforming to traditional notions of masculinity. One is concerned only with drinking more sangria.

I will bet you a full pitcher of sangria that you are wrong on this. Better yet, paid for by the loser.

Somebody’s worried about masculinity? What, are we like 12, and it’s 1982?
