Episode Notes

When Pesach criticized Aaron Boone for his use of Aroldis Chapman in the playoffs against the Rays, he was really using the same theory he developed last year when he criticized A.J. Hinch for his use of relievers like Will Harris in the World Series. Listen to this ten minute flashback and let us know if you agree.
