Manny's Overlooked Excellence and a Promising Padres Start with Jon Morosi
Description
He is an esteemed baseball writer and broadcaster, and now he's a member of the NBC Sports team. Jon Morosi makes his debut appearance with On Friar. The guys talk about his new role with NBC (5:35) before getting into his early impressions of the Padres. Could their outfield struggles and pitching depth lead to a trade? Jon sees one potential fit (14:36). They discuss Gore's arrival (22:20), Hosmer's improvement (25:56), and Melvin's magic (28:52). Then they shift their focus to NL MVP frontrunner Manny Machado, and why he's somehow overlooked (32:13). Plus, Jon thinks the Padres have a real chance to win the NL West (43:18).
