David, Justin and James open the show touching on Bryce Harper’s return for the Phillies and discuss what April told us about where the game is going when it comes to pitching. The Rays are pitching and hitting at a superior level, so how would Coney game plan for the Rays lineup? Where will the Pirates be in two weeks? What to watch for with Justin Verlander’s debut for the Mets this week? Do the Astros have rotation depth issues? Out of all the “rivalry matchups” this week, each host is excited the most for Dodgers vs. Padres. In the Yankees chat, the hosts discuss the decision to remove Doming Germán, and whether the Yankees have an identifiable closer. David believes the Yankees are trying to figure out what makes sense stylistically in the back of the bullpen.
