Description

In an Atlanta-sized episode of 755, DOB and EOF are joined by *coach* Peter Moylan! Moylan and the guys discuss the FOX Sports South-Southeast baseball analyst's Australia-based quarantine while he waits to join the Melbourne Aces as their new pitching coach (1:00). The trio talk Major League Baseball's potential MLB Draft League and how it may impact the future of prospect development (9:30). To tender or not to tender, that is the question? Who will and won't be non-tendered by their respective clubs, and which unlikely names could we see become free agents (16:45)? What will happen with the designated hitter rule (28:15)? Charlie Morton joins a Braves starting rotation brimming with talent, but is his addition enough to dispel all worries about the club's starting pitching (33:00)? Peter and Eric dish on what it was like seeing Morton in the clubhouse while working with him in 2008. Where will J.T. Realmuto land, and what does the gang make of Theo Epstein comments and his future as an executive (46:15)? The triumvirate share their opinions on the Bravos' lineup before analyzing some Morton-related stats (1:01:30). It's time to debate a, what seems ageless, topic: when will Barry Bonds and other steroid users being inducted into the Hall of Fame, if ever (1:17:30)? Peter and Dave provide their thoughts on the matter. Plus, clubhouse hazing and other matters (1:45:00).
