David and special guest Eno Sarris, The Athletic's baseball analytics guru, cover a potpourri of baseball-related topics. But, to start, the guys stick to analyzing the Braves' recent stretch of success. Is Atlanta's high level of performance sustainable? Do they have the personnel to win the NL East? Why is Major League Baseball eliminating rules that people actually like? Farhan Zaidi and Giants are surprising everyone in baseball. Where does Joey Votto rank among the league's most cerebral players? Plus, Charlie Morton is indispensable; will Atlanta re-sign Freeman & Dansby Swanson's improvements.
