Episode Notes

The boys are back — and Nash is finally in the building. This week, Josh, Jacob, and Andrew go position-by-position through the NL All-Star ballot, debating who deserves to make the team versus who the fans are actually going to vote in (spoiler: those lists don't always match up).

They work through every position — first base, second base, third base, shortstop, catcher, outfield, and DH — handing out shout-outs to under-the-radar guys like Otto Lopez, Brandon Lowe, Luis Arraez, and Hunter Goodman while landing on their final picks. Also on the docket: whether showing live ballot standings is ruining the integrity of the All-Star vote, a brutal Bryce Terang cold streak, and the case for Shohei Ohtani making it in at two positions.

Plus, The Pickle makes its return.

Leave a rating wherever you're listening, and let us know your NL All-Star starting nine in the comments!
