Episode Details

With the wonderful sounds of spring training filling the air in Arizona and Florida, there have already been a few unfortunate injuries that have knocked out several top MLB stars from getting their work in. Francisco Lindor, Corbin Carroll and Jackson Holliday have all been sidelined with hamate injuries, and it’s bringing us all down.

On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about the impact these injuries will have on their clubs, including what Team USA might do since Corbin Carroll will not be able to start and play in the World Baseball Classic. They then get into the situation surrounding Nick Castellanos being released from the Philadelphia Phillies and him addressing the now-infamous incident that occurred in Miami.

Later, Jake and Jordan discuss Justin Verlander reuniting with the Detroit Tigers to help continue his push for 300 wins, the Los Angeles Dodgers re-signing a couple of familiar names and give a quick college baseball preview with the season opening today. The guys close the episode by making their picks for this week’s edition of The Good, The Bad & The Uggla.
