                  THE BASEBALL RABBI PODCAST

 

Welcome to The Baseball Rabbi Podcast - where Pesach Wolicki and Scott Kahn talk sabermetrics and baseball history, with a dose of fandom, fWAR, and Fenway.

Sep 8, 2020

The trade deadline has come and gone, and the Baseball Rabbi Podcast checks out the difference in strategy between teams like the Padres, the Yankees, and the Blue Jays - and Pesach explains why some seemingly similar teams may be playing for 2020, while others are more concerned about the future. Scott and Pesach also interview former Brewer Lary Sorensen about substance abuse in baseball back in the 1980s, and whether things have changed between then and now. (Don't miss Pesach's gentle questioning of Lary's hitting ability.) Plus: Scott makes a new case for the late Lou Brock.
